EU’s artificial intelligence requirements are profoundly risky, says Apple
AI-summarised brief · reviewed before publication
The European Union has proposed that Google allow any AI company to use its services, a idea that Google and Apple strongly oppose. Apple has submitted a response to the EU, expressing concerns about the potential risks to user privacy, security, and safety, as well as device integrity and performance. The company argues that allowing any AI firm to access Android without Google's or the user's knowledge could create profound risks. Apple also questions the EU's technological expertise, citing its own experience with the Digital Markets Act. The EU will carefully assess submissions and may make adjustments to the proposed measures, with a final decision due by July 27, 2026. Apple's concerns are driven by the potential impact on its own platforms. The company highlights the risks of rapidly evolving AI systems.
