Apple AI战略遭质疑:承诺与兑现的差距,慢节奏能否后来居上?

marsbitPublished on 2025-06-23Last updated on 2025-06-24

在 2024 年 Apple 的全球开发者大会(WWDC)上,Apple 公司推出了其 AI 战略,并将其命名为“Apple Intelligence”。

这是一个充满希望的愿景,引发了诸多期待。然而,自发布以来,Apple 在过去一年中饱受批评,人们认为其 AI 战略承诺过高,但兑现不足。

Apple 的 AI 战略因入场过晚、云服务能力有限以及过度强调设备端处理而受到批评。批评人士认为,Apple 在基础 AI 研究和大型语言模型(LLM)开发方面落后于 OpenAI、谷歌和微软等企业。Apple 没有尽早构建强大的 AI 平台,而是专注于隐私和硬件,导致其依赖于合作伙伴,比如将 ChatGPT 集成到 Siri 中。

质疑者还指出,Apple 坚持主要在设备端运行 AI 模型。虽然这种方法保护了隐私并提高了速度,但与基于云的系统相比,限制了 AI 功能的规模和复杂性。一些开发者和分析师认为,这限制了 Apple 提供真正变革性 AI 体验的能力。

在今年 6 月初的全球开发者大会(WWDC)上,Apple 公开承认 2024 年 Apple Intelligence 发布时承诺的很多功能都已延期。Apple 软件工程高级副总裁 Craig Federighi 表示:“我们仍将继续努力,让 Siri 更加个性化。这项工作需要更多时间才能达到我们的高质量标准,我们期待在明年分享更多相关信息。”

Open AI、谷歌、Meta、微软以及各大厂商都拥有自己的 LLM 引擎。但 Apple 需要与第三方合作并使用其技术,才能将 AI 整合到其操作系统和应用程序中。在这种情况下,Apple 与 Open AI 和 ChatGPT 合作,将 AI 功能添加到 MacOS 和 iOS 中。

这项计划最初宣布时,被认为是一项雄心勃勃的计划。谷歌拥有自己的 Gemini LLM,这意味着他们可以从底层开始将 AI 精细地集成到 Android 系统中。这让 Android 在将 AI 集成到移动操作系统方面占据了优势。

虽然这或许是一种更好的方法,但 Apple 做了一件挺有意思的事。至少在短期内,他们正在将 AI 赋能到自己的应用中。

Apple 已将 Apple Intelligence 集成到其多款应用中。以下是一些主要示例:

照片:

  • 清理工具:此工具使用生成式 AI 从照片中移除不需要的物体或人物。
  • 回忆:Apple Intelligence 可以根据用户的描述,帮助用户将照片和视频制作成电影。
  • 自然语言搜索:用户只需描述要查找的内容即可搜索照片和视频。

邮件:

  • 优先处理邮件:邮件应用可以根据内容对收到的邮件进行分类,并为重要邮件设置“Primary”类别。
  • 智能回复:AI 智能回复功能可帮助用户快速高效地回复电子邮件。
  • 邮件摘要:Apple Intelligence 可提供邮件和信息对话的摘要。

信息和 FaceTime:

  • 实时翻译:可实时自动翻译信息。
  • 减少干扰,专注模式:此专注模式利用 AI 最大限度地减少干扰。
  • Intelligent Breakthrough & Silencing:专注模式下的这些功能可帮助用户过滤通知,以更有效地管理。

备忘录:

  • Image Wand:Apple Pencil 工具面板中的此功能可让用户将手绘图转换为图像,并可根据文字创建图像。

快捷指令:

  • 智能操作:Apple Intelligence 在快捷指令中启用了一组新的智能操作,允许用户利用 AI 模型在其工作流程中执行文本摘要或图像生成等任务。

Siri:

  • 增强功能:由于与 Apple Intelligence 集成,Siri 更加强大和智能。它现在能够处理更复杂的查询,理解更多的文字,并拥有全新的外观和体验。
  • ChatGPT 集成:Siri 可以访问 ChatGPT 来响应更复杂的任务或问题。

Apple 还允许其他应用程序利用 Apple Intelligence 核心的设备内置 AI 模型。

Apple 在其应用中对 AI 的快速响应至关重要,但鉴于 AI 的数据覆盖范围遍及全球,有人批评它与云系统相比限制了 AI 功能的规模和复杂性,这种批评也是合理的。

这使得一些分析师和媒体认为,Apple 需要收购现成的 LLM 公司,以帮助应对全球 AI 的扩张。虽然这是一个有趣的想法,但不太可能实现。

Apple 在利用现有的 LLM 合作伙伴关系以及这种策略方面做得越来越好。在此过程中,Apple 正在研发自己的 LLM,以便获得所需的控制权,从而保护客户数据的隐私,并提供 Apple 产品所擅长的那种隐私保护。

Ed Handy 在《Cult of Mac》杂志上对 Apple 的 AI 战略进行了深入分析,其认为 Apple 的缓慢推出并不是一场危机。他认为:

“Apple 在 AI 领域并没有领先,而且大多数用户也不会注意到 AI 是 21 世纪 20 年代的热门技术,Apple 甚至在这一领域的发展却远远落后。OpenAI 的 ChatGPT 聊天机器人让 Apple 的 Siri 看起来就像一个高中生的科学项目。谷歌 Gemini 生成的图片让 Apple Image Playground 生成的图片显得十分可笑。Apple 原计划在一年后推出增强版的 Siri,但如今看来这一计划要推迟。不过,这些其实都不重要。真的不重要。

让我们来看看谷歌的安卓操作系统,看看其中的原因。Android 在集成 AI 功能方面领先于 iPhone,但这并没有让用户更满意。最新的美国客户满意度指数调查显示,三星用户对 Android 智能手机的满意度比一年前降低了 1%。谷歌和摩托罗拉 Android 手机的满意度均下降了 3%。但该调查还发现,iPhone 用户的满意度也降低了 1%。这意味着酷炫的新 AI 功能,或者缺乏这些功能,对普通用户对其手机的看法都没有影响。”

作为一个关注 Apple 超 40 年的人,个人可以证明 Apple 一直在按照自己的节奏前进。而且他们推出 Apple Intelligence 的方式不会受外界批评的影响。

Apple 公司历来擅长创造新产品和服务。尽管有些批评有一定道理,但 Apple 让其应用程序具备 AI 功能的方法仍是一项稳健的策略,未来还有很大的创新空间。

The 'Saving U.S. Treasuries' Baton Pass: Bessent Fumbled Last Week, This Week It's Wash's Turn

"Rescuing US Treasuries" Relay: After Bessent's Miss, All Eyes Are on Walsh Last week, US Treasury Secretary Bessent's announcement to at least double long-term Treasury buybacks failed to sustainably lower yields, which quickly rebounded. The market response saw a drop in the dollar alongside surges in gold and Bitcoin, interpreted as a "pressure release valve" for anxiety. The focus now shifts to Fed Chairman Walsh's upcoming Jackson Hole speech. Markets are highly sensitive to his message, seeking clarity on the Fed's policy response to stubborn inflation and worsening fiscal conditions. Analysts warn that a lack of new guidance could disappoint markets and worsen the sell-off in long-dated bonds. Analysts question the scale of Bessent's operations, noting they are too small relative to the overall debt market and do not constitute quantitative easing. A key issue is the Fed's massive holdings of long-term bonds, which distorts the market. With the Fed holding low-yielding short-term bonds that are losing money relative to its policy rate, discussion is growing around a potential Fed-led "Operation Twist." This would involve selling short-term bonds to buy long-term ones, aiming to lower long-end yields without expanding the balance sheet. The upcoming PCE inflation data will set the stage for Walsh's speech. However, the window for action is narrowing amid political pressures. A critical threshold is the 30-year yield at 5%; holding above it could increase stress on the dollar and leveraged sectors. Overall, the article suggests that without coordinated Fed action to anchor inflation expectations, Treasury interventions may ultimately fail, with investors increasingly looking to assets like gold as hedges.

Hyperliquid's Compliance Journey: From Permissionless to Permissioned via HIP-3

Hyperliquid’s Compliance Path: From Permissionless to Permissioned HIP-3 Hyperliquid currently blocks U.S. access because its permissionless, on-chain infrastructure conflicts with U.S. market structure laws, which restrict futures trading to registered exchanges, clearinghouses, and brokers. Through its Hyperliquid Policy Center (HPC), the project is advocating for regulatory modernization, proposing that regulated entities be allowed to build products on HyperCore (its exchange and clearing layer) while fulfilling their compliance obligations. The platform’s modular stack separates roles like a traditional exchange (DCM), clearinghouse (DCO), and broker (FCM), but reconstructs them on-chain with code. This enables permissionless access, self-custody, and 24/7 global trading, but clashes with U.S. rules requiring KYC, specific margin models, and custodial arrangements. To resolve this, HPC is engaging with U.S. regulators (CFTC, SEC) to seek clarity that deploying on-chain software does not itself trigger licensing, and to establish exemptions allowing non-custodial wallets to route users to regulated derivatives. Recent political signals suggest openness to this approach. On the technical side, Hyperliquid Labs has introduced permissioned HIP-3 deployers on testnet. These allow regulated entities to launch markets, perform KYC, and whitelist compliant users. While these create separate order books, whitelisted market makers can bridge liquidity between them, ensuring deep, shared liquidity across the same L1. Features like payload-based “PA” permissions enable DEX-level account controls (e.g., reduce-only orders), mirroring traditional broker authorities. The strategy is not to open the native, permissionless front-end to U.S. users, but to position Hyperliquid as neutral infrastructure that U.S. regulated firms can use while meeting their legal duties. This paves a compliant path for U.S. investor access while preserving the protocol’s core, permissionless nature.

Two Funding Rounds in Three Months: The Chinese Version of Palantir is on Fire

Investment Community AI has learned that Beijing Zhongshu Ruizhi Technology Co., Ltd., a domestic industrial-grade causal intelligence and high-reliability decision-making AI company, has recently completed a strategic financing round worth hundreds of millions of RMB. This round saw participation from China Internet Investment Fund, Suzhou Chuangtou National Social Security Fund, Financial Street Capital, ICBC Capital, Kunlun Capital, among others, with existing shareholders also increasing their investment. This follows a Series B funding round in the hundreds of millions completed just three months prior. The rapid succession of two major funding rounds signifies strong market recognition of the company's underlying original technology and scaled commercial implementation. Often referred to as the "Chinese version of Palantir," Zhongshu Ruizhi is entering a new phase of accelerated technological iteration, widespread scenario replication, and scaled performance release, mirroring the explosive growth of China's AI market. Founded in April 2020 by Dr. Han Han, a Tsinghua University Ph.D. and former core drafter of national AI policies, the company is mission-driven to "move AI from the digital world to the physical world." It focuses on the high-reliability, strong-decision industrial AI track and enterprise-grade AI Agent full-stack infrastructure. The team tackles the challenge of applying AI to China's vast and complex industrial and energy systems by developing a new intelligent operating system from scratch. Its core technological breakthrough lies in three proprietary底层 technologies: meta-causal cognitive theory, causal models, and a dynamic ontology engine. These address critical pain points of generative large models in industrial settings—such as AI hallucinations, insufficient reasoning, lack of temporal logic, unverifiable decisions, and multi-source rule conflicts—thereby providing trustworthy, explainable, and executable智能决策 capabilities. Commercially, Zhongshu Ruizhi has achieved scaled deployment, serving over 50 central state-owned enterprises and industrial groups in sectors like power, petroleum, and aerospace, with implementations in more than 800 highly complex production scenarios. The company reported doubled revenue in 2025, demonstrating strong self-sufficiency and a viable business model—a rarity among new-generation AI firms. The latest funds will be allocated towards advancing foundational theoretical research, replicating successful application models to expand market presence (including overseas), and attracting top-tier talent. Lead investor China Internet Investment Fund highlighted that in the current shift from general AI capability contests to deep industrial empowerment, industrial-grade causal intelligence is crucial for building China's modern digital foundation and fostering new quality productive forces. They expressed support for the company's efforts to define decision-making paradigms and trustworthy standards for industrial intelligence, aiming to secure a rule-making voice in the global physical AI arena.

The Biggest Political Economy Question in the AI Era: As Robots Become More Capable, How Do Humans Share the Value?

In the AI era, the most pressing political economy question is: as machines become increasingly capable, how can humanity share in the value they create? An article originally critiquing China's tech focus has sparked a deeper debate on this global challenge. Historically, industrial progress improved efficiency but still relied on human labor for wealth creation and distribution. AI is fundamentally different—it is now replacing cognitive and knowledge work. As AI and robots take over more tasks, economic growth may continue while direct human participation in value creation shrinks, creating a core tension between productivity gains and widespread income generation. The issue is not unique to China. While leading tech companies amass enormous wealth, labor's share of income is declining globally. The core problem is a broken link: technological innovation and corporate profits are not translating into sufficient consumer income and demand. Three potential paths forward are outlined: a traditional capitalist model where profits primarily go to capital owners; a state-capitalist approach with public investment in AI; and more innovative models like digital sovereign wealth funds, universal shareholding, or AI-era basic income schemes to directly distribute AI-generated value. The future competitive advantage may lie not just in technological supremacy, but in which society can build a new, inclusive distribution system for the intelligent economy. The ultimate challenge is ensuring that as AI creates value, humans have a means to obtain income and share in the resulting widespread social benefits.

Generating Profits for Seven Consecutive Quarters, Emerging Markets Carry Trade Outperforms Everything

For the seventh consecutive quarter, dollar-funded emerging market carry trades have delivered positive returns, marking the longest winning streak since 2008. According to Bloomberg's index, this strategy has gained approximately 22% since late 2024, outperforming U.S. Treasuries, emerging market sovereign, and corporate dollar debt. The core of the trade involves borrowing low-interest currencies like the U.S. dollar, euro, or yen to invest in high-yielding emerging market assets, such as Turkish lira bonds offering over 40% returns. Returns were amplified by favorable currency moves, with the dollar weakening against most emerging market currencies and other traditional funding currencies. For instance, the trade gained 48% on the Colombian peso in the past year. A key test came in August 2024 with a historic joint U.S.-Japan currency intervention, which caused only a modest 1% dip in the carry trade risk premium as investors shifted funding from the yen to the euro and Swiss franc. Looking ahead, the primary risk is the timing of Federal Reserve policy changes. While persistent inflation allows the Fed to hold rates, a rapid rise in long-term U.S. yields could threaten the trade. Another concern is crowding, as massive inflows increase vulnerability to a sudden reversal. High interest rates in regions like Latin America and Eastern Europe, supported by external factors like Middle East tensions and energy prices, continue to sustain the opportunity. Major investors remain engaged, favoring currencies like the Mexican peso, South African rand, and Turkish lira.
