Apple has publicly backed Google in its opposition to the European Union's proposed regulations that would require Android to provide third-party AI services with the same access as its own technology, Gemini. The European Commission is enforcing these rules under the Digital Markets Act (DMA) to promote competition and innovation in the AI sector. However, both companies argue that these measures could jeopardize user privacy and security by allowing external AI services to access sensitive data. Apple expressed its concerns in a response to the EU, stating that the draft measures could create significant risks for user safety and device performance. The company criticized the EU for making decisions based on a limited timeframe, suggesting that the commission's understanding of the implications is insufficient. Additionally, Apple has its own interests in the matter as it is also under investigation by the EU regarding its compliance with the DMA, which mandates that Apple allow third-party app marketplaces on its operating system. Apple has previously called for the repeal of the DMA, claiming it is being subjected to political delays.
