On August 8, Apple China posted a document titled "Use Qwen with Apple Intelligence on Mac," marking the first official confirmation that Qwen is integrated into Apple Intelligence for Chinese mainland devices. The document detailed usage for writing, text comprehension, and information query, but was removed in less than a day, with tutorials becoming 404 references. Apple gave three inconsistent statements: customer service said approval was in progress or no functions were under application, while officials called it a regular content update. Baidu made no statement. Apple's AI for Chinese mainland devices uses a dual-supplier architecture: Alibaba's Qwen handles core generative AI, while Baidu handles search and visual retrieval. On July 8, Apple Technology Development (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. completed filing of generative AI services, publicized by the Cyberspace Administration of China on July 15. After filing, Qwen made public moves, including official confirmation of system-level integration across iOS and macOS. On August 8, Alibaba's Hong Kong stock rose nearly 3% intraday, linked to the Qwen document. Two days later, the Qwen Open Platform launched, covering fields like house rental and express delivery, supporting mobile phones, PCs, and AI glasses, allowing developers to call Qwen capabilities. Qwen's presence in the Apple ecosystem was built by users and media through screenshots and inquiries.
