Apple Introduces New AI Features in iOS/iPadOS 18.1 and macOS Sequoia Betas

Apple has introduced a series of new AI features in its latest developer betas for iOS/iPadOS 18.1 and macOS 15.1. These updates include a revamped Siri, enhanced writing tools, and a new Focus Mode. Additionally, Apple has embedded specific pre-prompt instructions in its AI, such as 'do not hallucinate' and 'you are a helpful mail assistant,' to ensure the generative AI remains accurate and useful. These instructions were discovered in the macOS Sequoia beta and are designed to prevent the AI from generating incorrect or misleading information. The Verge reported on these findings, highlighting Apple's efforts to control AI behavior.
