The topic iOS 27 beta 2: Apple tells Siri AI to clearly refuse requests to summarize URLs<\/strong> is currently the subject of lively discussion \u2014 readers and analysts are keeping a close eye on developments.<\/p>\n

This is taking place in a dynamic environment: companies\u2019 decisions and competitors\u2019 reactions can quickly change the picture.<\/p>\n

A new rule added to Siri AI\u2019s system prompt in iOS 27 beta 2 changes how it should handle requests involving extracting or summarizing content behind a URL. Here are the details.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Earlier this week, Apple released iOS 27 developer beta 2, alongside its counterparts for the OS 27 release cycle.<\/p>\n

Among the most notable changes were a new Insights feature on Apple Wallet, a \u201cWrite with Siri\u201d suggestion on the iOS and iPadOS keyboard, and the possibility to update an Apple TV 4K remotely from the Apple Home app.<\/p>\n

The release also includes many under-the-hood changes, one of which makes it more clear how Siri AI should handle requests involving accessing content behind a URL. A new section in Siri AI\u2019s system prompt now says:<\/p>\n

You cannot access content behind a URL: When a user provides a URL and asks you to summarize, read, or extract information from it, inform them that you cannot access web pages. Do not offer follow-up suggestions or workarounds.<\/p>\n

Siri AI was already unable to access URLs to extract content. However, the new section instructs it to clearly state that it cannot fulfill such requests, nor assist the user if they try to circumvent the limitation.<\/p>\n

While Apple\u2019s reasoning is unclear, the rule may be intended to keep Siri AI from following other AI chatbots in pulling and summarizing website content without sending users to the original pages, a practice that could make the web increasingly unsustainable over time.<\/p>\n

Currently, Safari offers Apple Intelligence-powered summaries, but the feature is only accessible when the user is viewing the webpage itself.<\/p>\n
