This approach arises in response to the restrictions that prevent the use of services like ChatGPT in the Asian country. However, this strategy could be the key for Apple to finally bring these advanced technologies to other markets, like Spainwhere AI continues to be a pending subject.
Apple brings AI to China and plans to do the same in Spain
With the release of iOS 18.2, Apple introduced the ChatGPT integration on devices globally, revolutionizing the use of artificial intelligence on iPhone, iPad and Mac. But in markets like China, where government regulations block foreign generative AI services, the company has opted for a local solution: collaborating with companies like ByteDance and Tencent to adapt their AI models to the country’s requirements.
This approach not only seeks to satisfy Chinese consumers, but also maintain competitiveness in a market dominated by local brands such as Huawei, whose Mate 70 has gained popularity thanks to its own advanced AI. If these negotiations are successful, they could establish a model to follow in other countries where AI integration faces specific challenges.
In Spain, access to artificial intelligence models such as ChatGPT on Apple devices is not yet available, which has generated all kinds of expectations among users. Although the company’s devices are prepared to integrate these tools, the implementation policies, in accordance with current regulations on the European continent, have left the country out of this first wave of launches.
The strategy that Apple is exploring in China could be a viable solution to overcome this obstacle. Collaborate with local companies or adapting AI to specific regulations could allow the arrival of these functionalities in Spain. With this, Apple would not only expand its reach, but also consolidate its position in European markets where demand for advanced technology is booming. In fact, Apple is late.
The arrival of artificial intelligence integrated into Apple devices would represent a significant advance in the way users interact with their devices. From real-time assistance for everyday tasks to personalized solutions in education, work and leisure, AI could transform the user experience in Spain.
What functions will AI have in Spain?
Apple Intelligence, Apple’s new artificial intelligence platform, promises to revolutionize the iPhone experience with a series of advanced functions that, if everything continues its course and nothing changes, They will arrive in Spain in April 2025. This AI will integrate various tools designed to improve interaction with the device in a more intuitive and personalized way.
Among its main features are the ability to understand the context of conversations and multitask more efficiently, as well as the generating emojis or writing texts. Apple Intelligence will be able to offer more precise recommendations, from settings adjustments to app suggestions based on daily usage. Additionally, it will integrate deeply with Apple services such as iMessage and Safari, enabling smarter automatic responses and the ability to manage content based on user interests.
Another of the most notable functions has to do with the photos app, in which you can now create video clips with your memories or remove unwanted elements from photos with Clean Up.
Another notable feature will be the improvement in Siri voice assistance, which will be able to perform complex tasks with greater precision and speed. Apple Intelligence is also expected to optimize device performance, automatically adjusting battery and resources based on user needs.
