Apple Seeds First Beta of macOS Sequoia 15.6

by

Apple today seeded the first beta of an upcoming macOS Sequoia 15.6 update to developers for testing purposes, with the software coming a month after Apple released macOS Sequoia 15.5.

macOS Sequoia Feature
Developers can opt-in to the macOS Sequoia beta through the Software Update section of the System Settings app. An Apple ID associated with an Apple Developer account is required to get the beta.

There's no word yet on what's included in macOS Sequoia 15.6, but rumors suggest that Apple plans to bring Apple Intelligence to China. There have been some regulatory hurdles that Apple is dealing with, so ‌Apple Intelligence‌ in China might be delayed beyond macOS 15.6.

I just wish I would be able to delete the 9.46 GB Apple Intelligence uses from my storage but I can't.
Yeah, on i(Pad)OS, too.

I sure hope they're working on stability, as you'd expect a .5 release to be stable by now. But last two reboots, desktop widgets have crashed on my M1. Last time, they didn't come back until after reboot. This time, they came back within 24 hours. Wish Apple would focus more on stability than features this late in the game.
No stability issues on my M2 air

1) RAM is not mass storage. And usage of RAM is a superb way to compute; hence RAM usage has constantly been increasing for 40 years and will continue to do so.

2) AI is not some IE-type Apple effort at making folks use Apple's house app, it is a rapidly evolving industry-wide tool that does seem to like having more RAM available. No sinister corporate skullduggery aimed at selling RAM.

Folks who fail to buy up with RAM of course sub-optimize their future computing performance, and AI usage by apps/OS will exacerbate that. We constantly see users gab about what worked last year in these fora when they should instead be doing the hard work of trying to determine what will work well over the full future life cycle of any new box.
