One alert claimed BBC story said Luigi Mangione, alleged murderer of US healthcare CEO, had killed himself
Apple has said it will update an AI feature that has issued inaccurate news alerts on its latest iPhones, including that a man accused of killing a US insurance boss had shot himself and that tennis star Rafael Nadal had come out as gay.
The tech company said it was developing a software update that would “further clarify” when news notifications were actually summaries generated by the company’s Apple Intelligence system. It said the update would be rolled out in the coming weeks.
