Woofun AI data shows that Apple stock rose nearly 3% to a record high of $325.4 on Wednesday, driven by the completion of Apple Smart’s first domestic generative AI registration in China. The Cyberspace Administration of China confirmed the filing alongside six other mobile-end models, marking a shift from cloud-only registrations. Alibaba’s US-listed stock gained over 6.6% and Baidu rose 3.3% as market expectations for domestic AI ecosystem integration intensified.

Alibaba’s Thousand Whys and Baidu will integrate AI capabilities into Apple Smart, offering text and image understanding services for iOS, iPadOS, macOS, and visionOS users. This integration allows users to access these features without switching applications, signaling the official launch of Apple’s localized AI strategy in the Chinese market.
