Even though this type of summary notification appears to be directly from the BBC, it is in fact Apple Intelligence’s take on much longer headlines.

Other stories in the summaries seen on Friday – including those on South Korea and rising cases of influenza – were reported accurately by Apple Intelligence.

The latest examples come after journalist body Reporters Without Borders (also known as RSF) called on Apple to axe its AI-powered summaries of news stories last month.

“The automated production of false information attributed to a media outlet is a blow to the outlet’s credibility,” Vincent Berthier, the head of RSF’s technology and journalism desk, said in December.

He added it was “a danger to the public’s right to reliable information on current affairs.”
