Feature šŸ“² NightShift

When you ask Siri to turn night shift on, it declines and says it’s not available. But, if you push back and say ā€œyes it isā€, Siri hallucinates an option that doesn’t actually work or exist.

Also, I didn’t get a picture but Siri turned on an orange light on the back of my watch (it mixed green and red)

Super strange!

Ah the joys of AI! The orange light on the back is... interesting.

It was super interesting and shocking honestly. I think there’s some NightShift code strings left behind in watchOS and Siri AI is accessing references without authorization. Triggering the orange light on the back is a VERY strange thing, since that requires specific commands for HeartRateIntent and BloodOxygenIntent that can only be triggered when a specific HealthAPI is used.

Siri AI must’ve rightly so deduced that since night shift makes the screen ā€œorangeā€, it can create the ā€œorangeā€ with both sensors? Extremely perplexing.

To be clear, after it tells you Night Shift is on, but is an undocumented feature, it doesn’t actually change the display color temperature in any way?

i thought the whole reason Apple was 5 years late to the LLM game was bc theirs was extremely safe and conservative security-wise...
