According the Information published on Tuesday, Apple had tested the highly anticipated DeepSeek AI but decided not to proceed with it. The company has instead partnered with Alibaba to develop AI for iPhone users in China. Apple has been testing AI models developed by Chinese developers since 2023. Initially, it chose Baidu as its primary partner. The collaboration was hampered by delays in Baidu’s development. Sources claim that Apple also explored options with Tencent ByteDance and DeepSeek, but abandoned DeepSeek because of its lack experience and resources to support large clients like Apple.[theInformation[theInformation]
