Ives also highlighted the upcoming Worldwide Developers Conference as a pivotal moment for the company.

Why It Matters: This announcement comes in the wake of a series of events that have been shaping the narrative around Apple's future. Just a few days ago, Ives had already hinted at a potential turnaround for the tech giant, dubbing it a "Renaissance Of Growth." This was seen as a significant moment for the company, especially ahead of the WWDC.
爲何重要：這一宣佈是在一系列塑造蘋果未來敘事的事件之後發佈的。就在幾天前，艾夫斯已經暗示這家科技巨頭可能會出現轉機，稱其爲 “增長的復興”。對於公司來說，這被視爲一個重要時刻，尤其是在WWDC之前。
Moreover, Ives had previously pointed out that the "seeds" for Apple's revival in China were being planted, and that patience was required to navigate the temporary weakness. This was seen as a positive sign for the company's future, especially in light of the recent developments.
此外，艾夫斯此前曾指出，蘋果在中國復甦的 “種子” 正在播下，克服暫時的弱點需要耐心。這被視爲公司未來的積極信號，尤其是考慮到最近的事態發展。
Furthermore, the potential of AI in the tech industry has been a hot topic of discussion. A recent report suggested that AI on iOS could drive higher institutional ownership of Apple's iPhone, potentially leading to a 23.5% upside for the stock. This further underscores the significance of Ives' latest announcement.
此外，人工智能在科技行業的潛力一直是討論的熱門話題。最近的一份報告表明，iOS上的人工智能可以推動蘋果iPhone的機構所有權增加，這有可能使該股上漲23.5％。這進一步凸顯了艾夫斯最新公告的重要性。
Meanwhile, Steve Eisman of "The Big Short" fame also highlighted Apple as a "hidden" play in the AI space, further adding to the growing interest in the company's AI potential.
同時，“The Big Short” 成名的史蒂夫·艾斯曼也強調蘋果是人工智能領域的 “隱藏” 玩家，這進一步增加了人們對該公司人工智能潛力與日俱增的興趣。
