Apple released a test version of Apple Intelligence with iOS 27.3 on Tuesday and began testing its AI features on Chinese users through an Alibaba content filter, Bloomberg reported. The Pentagon added Alibaba to its list of "Chinese military companies" on June 8, saying the firm is tied to China's military through Beijing's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). Alibaba sued the Pentagon on June 23 and denied the allegations, according to Reuters. Alibaba's content filter approves ongoing updates to a localized version of Apple Intelligence in China in coordination with the government, according to Bloomberg; Apple's newest Siri AI features, which depend on Alphabet's models, will not be released there. Apple and Alibaba each did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation's requests for comment. The Apple Intelligence tools include a test version of Live Rewind for Apple Watch, which listens and records conversations through users' Apple devices, and Siri Recap, which records users' conversations and generates notes that delete after one week unless saved and can be exported to other applications; users can opt out. iOS 27.3 also updated Apple's Health app with more detailed health tracking capabilities, Bloomberg reported. Apple was pressed by the White House and the House Select Committee on China in May 2025 over its choice to partner with Alibaba, the New York Times reported.
