In China, there has been an active promotion of AI to mock Apple.
Chinese smartphone manufacturers have begun to actively promote artificial intelligence (AI) features in their battle against Apple. This was reported by the Financial Times (FT).
According to the newspaper's journalists, Honor, Oppo, Xiaomi, Huawei, and other companies have distinguished themselves by intensifying the promotion of AI features in their smartphones. The article states that local IT giants are essentially mocking Apple. The American corporation has long been trying to obtain permission for its neural network to operate in China, but so far, it has not succeeded.
Moreover, Apple’s AI tools available in the rest of the world are, according to analysts, significantly inferior to the capabilities of Chinese neural networks. "Chinese smartphone manufacturers are clearly moving faster and more openly in AI development," said Omdia analyst Lucas Zhong to the publication. For instance, the AI service in Honor phones can find discounts and promo codes, while Oppo can track daily expenses.
At the same time, local manufacturers acknowledge the power of Tim Cook's corporation. "Apple is truly a great company, and our entire industry should learn from it, aspire to it, and even surpass it," said Honor representative Xiangdong Li. Li emphasized that if Apple "acts slowly," competitors should take advantage of this.
