In view of the EU Digital Markets Act, Apple has decided not to launch new artificial intelligence technologies to hundreds of millions of users in the EU market for the time being. The company announced on Friday that it will not release Apple Intelligence, iPhone Mirroring and SharePlay Screen Sharing to EU users this year because the Digital Markets Act allegedly forces Apple to lower the security level of its products and services. "We are concerned that the interoperability requirements of the Digital Markets Act may force us to compromise the integrity of our products in a way that weakens user privacy and data security," Apple said in a statement. Under the Digital Markets Act, Apple is expected to receive a formal warning from EU regulators for allegedly blocking some apps from directing users to cheaper network subscription services. Earlier this year, Apple was fined 1.8 billion euros (about 1.9 billion U.S. dollars) by EU regulators for this matter.
