1)PARIS AI SUMMIT

UK and US Refuse to Sign AI Declaration at Paris Summit

Countries like France, China, and India pledged to support an "open," "inclusive," and "ethical" approach to the technology's development, but the UK and US refused to sign the agreement, expressing concerns over national security and overregulation.

Details:

• The UK government cited gaps in "practical clarity" on global governance and national security as reasons for not signing.
• Meanwhile, U.S. Vice President JD Vance criticized Europe's "massive" AI regulations, saying they could stifle innovation. He emphasized the need for "pro-growth" policies and rejected strict content moderation measures, calling them "authoritarian censorship."
• While Europe pushes for stricter AI rules, the US is prioritizing economic growth and the acceleration of AI development, sometimes rolling back regulations considered too restrictive.

The move has drawn mixed reactions and underscores a growing divide in how nations approach AI governance. Some fear it undermines credibility in AI safety, while others welcome a pragmatic approach to balance innovation and regulation.

4) Apple reportedly partners with Alibaba after rejecting DeepSeek for China AI launch

Apple Partners with Alibaba for Apple Intelligence in China

Apple is partnering with Alibaba to bring Apple Intelligence to China after rejecting potential deals with DeepSeek and ByteDance. Initially, Apple planned to work with Baidu, but technical challenges led to the switch.

?? Why It Matters:

• China is a major market, but Apple Intelligence is still unavailable there.
• iPhone sales dropped 11% in China due to missing AI features, while Huawei gained market share.
• Apple previously partnered with OpenAI for the U.S. launch and remains open to working with Google’s Gemini.

?? The deal comes ahead of the iPhone SE 4 launch, which is crucial for Apple's growth in China and India.

That’s a wrap for today!
