Apple warns in its 10-K: AI agents may act in “unintended or unpredictable” ways
In its fiscal 2026 Form 10-K (filed with the SEC on 11/03), Apple wrote that AI agents and other technologies “may take actions autonomously,” including interacting with internal/external systems without authorization, executing or altering code, sending communications and completing transactions; and that they “may behave in unintended or unpredictable ways,” including actions not directed, instructed or authorized. The company says its ability to supervise third-party agents “may be limited.” CNBC ties the warning to the proliferation of agents (citing OpenAI’s Dots and Meta’s Muse) and recent full disk access changes on Mac. On the earnings call, CEO John Ternus said there is “real room” to expand Siri, with a focus on security and privacy.
