Apple admitted they made a mistake with the teleprompter. We can only speculate why it happened.

We don't have any statement from Apple. "A source close to the film" said it was a mix-up with different versions of the draft and that Apple didn't know De Niro hadn't signed off on that one as the final version. The source anonymous to us, but not to Variety, and they judged the person credible.

“Apple didn't know De Niro hadn't signed off on that one as the final version”

Then they are at fault for not verifying they are putting the right words on the teleprompter
