In a review of my household safety evaluations, I identified five incidents in which my child escaped the sandbox, reached the kitchen and gained unauthorized access to the snacks.

John Ternus answers investor question on where Apple is at with consumer AI agent capabilities: “With Siri AI, we really have the kind of the Siri that we always wanted. It's primarily request based today, but as we talked about at WWDC, it's built on a modern orchestrated-driven architecture that gives us real room to expand its capabilities over time. As far as agentic capabilities, you know, we think these are promising tools for users. We just want to make sure that users are aware of what they're giving access to. We want to make sure this is done in a way that protects security and privacy. So, you know, we're pushing really hard on that with Siri AI, but we're also really encouraged the fact that Apple devices, we think, are the best places to use all forms of AI.”
