Apple's rally is driven by a dual-track strategy of hardware efficiency and geographic expansion. By testing PrismML, the company aims to process advanced AI models locally on the iPhone, which mitigates the margin pressure of rising cloud compute costs. The regulatory nod from Beijing allows Apple Intelligence to compete directly in the world's largest smartphone market, where it is already seeing 24% year-over-year growth.
