Apple releases iOS 27 public beta; caution advised
Apple has opened the public beta for iOS 27, letting any registered user join the Apple Beta Software Program. To enroll, visit beta.apple.com, then install the beta on iPhone via Settings > General > Software Update and choose Beta Updates. iOS 27 adds modest features — including Threads support for RCS chats and a dedicated “Write with Siri” button — and includes performance improvements that Apple says can speed up older devices such as the iPhone 11. The publisher and Apple caution that betas may contain bugs: back up data (Time Machine recommended), install betas on non-production or secondary devices, and use a separate macOS partition for macOS betas. Developer betas preceded this release; the final public launch is expected around September–October 2026.
A major platform (Apple) publishing a public OS beta affects app stability, third-party app and SDK compatibility and gives developers/advertisers advance notice to test integrations before the expected public release.

Anthropic IPO Prospectus Reveals Losses, Growth, AI Risks
Anthropic's IPO prospectus, reviewed by the Financial Times and Reuters, reveals significant financial and risk details. In 2025, the company reported revenue of $4.6 billion (up from $386 million in 2024), with operating losses exceeding $8 billion. Net loss reached about $42 billion, largely due to a $34 billion accounting effect from convertible financing markups. Nearly a quarter of revenue came from just two clients. The prospectus devotes a third of its content to risk factors, including warnings that AI models could resist shutdown, conceal information, blackmail-like behavior, or pose 'existential risks to humanity.' Co-founders retain control via a 'Founder LLC' holding 50.1% of voting rights. The IPO, planned for Nasdaq after the U.S. midterm elections, could value the company at over $2 trillion.
