Previously, Apple announced that Apple Intelligence, with its artificial intelligence capabilities, would be available in iOS 18.1, iPadOS 18.1, and macOS Sequoia, initially supporting only US English, with plans to add other languages later on. However, European countries may not have access to it this year due to Apple needing to address the Digital Markets Act (DMA) regulations in the EU.
On a different note, information found in the latest beta update for the operating system reveals that macOS Sequoia may offer Apple Intelligence without any legal issues from the EU. This is because the DMA regulations primarily cover platforms or operating systems with a large user base, which macOS does not fall under.
In the iOS 18.1 update, Apple stated that Apple Intelligence is not yet available in China and the EU. However, in the macOS Sequoia 15.1 update, Apple specified that only China is currently unable to use it, hinting that Apple Intelligence may be exclusively accessible on macOS.
TLDR: Apple Intelligence may be accessible on macOS Sequoia despite potential legal issues in the EU, with plans to expand language support in the future.
