The BBC has filed a complaint with Apple over fake news generated by artificial intelligence (AI) on iPhones. The issue occurred due to Apple’s new feature, Apple Intelligence, which uses AI to group notifications from various information sites.
One of the notifications suggested that Luigi Mangione had killed himself, contrary to his actual arrest and subsequent death by suicide. A BBC spokesperson stated that it is essential for audiences to trust any news published in the BBC’s name, including notifications.
The incident was similar to another unconfirmed case involving the New York Times’ notifications. The BBC has since contacted Apple to address the issue and fix the problem.
