Will Apple Intelligence be available in the EU after all?


No, the DMA very likely bans it. The EU won't say in advance and has been loudly threatening fines of 10% of global revenue.

DMA forbids using your platform's data or position to support a service without giving third parties equal access. Third parties are pretty clearly excluded from screen mirroring or running ai on device, so these seem like things Apple can't legally launch in the EU.


I understand the Eurocrats really want to protect us, but sometimes I wish I were protected from the Eurocrats.


I’m on Sequoia 15.1 beta 4, and I got it enabled yesterday.


As an European I very hope not or at least that you can opt out.


Of course you can opt out!
