Apple recently posted and removed details explaining how Mac users in China could set up their computers to work with Alibaba's Qwen AI. Now, Reuters has confirmed long-held speculation that Apple has revisited its Google Gemini AI playbook and built its own proprietary AI model for China with support from Alibaba.
Apple worked with a Chinese partner because US models such as ChatGPT or Claude are not being made available there, though Chinese AI development doesn't seem to be held back by that lack. Apple and Alibaba have not commented on the claims, the report said.
The approach echoes Apple's work with Google to build more advanced large language models (LLMs) for use with Apple Intelligence, and the news will likely be seen as broadly positive by Chinese iPhone users. They can now look forward to working with Apple Intelligence on their devices. The proximity of the reporting suggests they may be able to access Apple's AI quite soon, once new Apple operating systems ship next month.

Traditional operating systems (OS) were built to manage hardware, files, apps, and users on a device, but Cloudflare says the agentic AI era requires a whole new format.
The company this week announced Cloudflare OS, which connects AI agents, enterprise data and context, internal systems, and workflows together in one secure workspace. It is open source and browser-based, sparing companies the need to build all-new infrastructure.
The OS is launching alongside several other new security, identity, spending, and user insight tools that Cloudflare has built for the AI-based workplace.
"Cloudflare OS isn't a traditional desktop OS," said Rita Kozlov, VP of product at Cloudflare. "It reimagines the workplace computing environment for AI."
Open source OS runs in a browser
Cloudflare OS serves as a secure, AI-equipped workspace that is plugged into internal company systems. Available now through Cloudflare's open source repository, it is accessible directly in a browser, and runs inside an enterprise's Cloudflare account.

A court has dismissed Google's case against SerpApi over that company's scraping of search results to train AI models.
The US District Court for the Northern District of California found that there was no indication that any copyright had been breached.
Google announced in December that it was suing SerpApI for its alleged web scraping, claiming that it was protecting copyright holders. In February, SerpApI fought back and asked the court to dismiss Google's case. And this week, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers agreed with SerpApi that Google's case has no merit.
Google's argument was that SerpApi's actions breached the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DCMA). It made two claims: first, that no person shall circumvent a technological measure that effectively controls access to a work protected under this title, and second that no person shall manufacture, import, offer to the public, provide, or otherwise traffic in any technology, product, service, device, or component protected by the Act.
SerpApi claimed that the URLs and other links that were being served by Google did not in themselves entail copyright and the judge agreed. In h
