Adding brake fluid to the power steering reservoir can damage the power steering system.

How can you tell the difference between power steering fluid and transmission fluid?

Power Steering Fluid vs ATF

The automatic transmission fluid (AF) is a red color liquid that releases a distinct sweet smell while the power steering (PS) fluid is clear, amber, or pinkish and smells like burnt marshmallow. Both of them are hydraulic fluids.
