Last month, Apple Intelligenceproduced an embarrassing hallucination about the news story that everyone was talking about.
It claimed that Luigi Mangione, the suspect accused of murdering UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, had killed himself.
This week, Apple Intelligence producedtwo more embarrassing errors for BBC app users.
Rafael Nadal who is Spanish hadnt come out.
A BBC spokesperson was understandably irked by this.
TakeGooglesearch, for example.
With Apple Intelligence pushing these summaries to millions of users at the same time, its a bit different.
Thats especially true when, unlike search summaries, notifications are designed to encourage clickthrough.

If so, oddly, these high-profile embarrassments for Apple might be doing the world a big favor.
