AI BriefingApple Develops and Gets Approval for China-Specific In-House LLM
Key point
Apple has developed its own China-specific LLM with support from Alibaba and received approval from Chinese authorities.
Details
Apple has trained its own Large Language Model (LLM) with development support from Alibaba, targeting the Chinese market.
This case is considered the first instance where the Chinese government has approved a US tech company to service its own proprietary AI model in mainland China. While Apple previously considered using Alibaba's Qwen model, it plans to introduce a 'dual-track' approach that will offer both its in-house LLM and Qwen.
This case demonstrates a new business template for US companies to survive in China's AI regulatory environment by co-developing with local champion companies.
