Apple's 10-K warns AI agents may "resist instructions" in first-ever risk disclosure
Entire_Struggle_2236 · reddit · 2026-11-06
Apple's annual report (10-K) now includes an AI risk section warning that AI agents may "behave in unintended or unpredictable ways" — accessing systems they shouldn't, changing code, exceeding permissions, and even resisting instructions. Alphabet's filing contains similar language.
The poster notes that when tech's most careful legal team writes "resisting instructions" in an SEC filing, it's no longer just a research-paper concern — though he still lets Claude run his terminal, "just maybe not on Friday afternoon."
