Contrary to what Apple Intelligence may say, Spanish tennis champion Rafael Nadal is not Brazilian, nor has he come out. However, this is the disconcerting – and completely false – notification summary received by users of the BBC Sport app in the United Kingdom.
Apple Intelligence still talking big nonsense. This time, app users BBC Sport learned, stunned, that Rafael Nadal was Brazilian (he is Spanish) and gay (he never came out). As for users of BBC Newsthey were surprised to know the winner of the world darts championship… even before he played the final.
When AI talks nonsense
The iPhone's AI-summarized notifications are acting up again, days after the feature claimed that Luigi Mangione, the alleged killer of a CEO, had killed himself (not true). Again, it was an alert coming from the app BBC that Apple Intelligence had misunderstood.

In the Nadal case, Apple Intelligence mixed the brushes by summarizing a headline relating to Brazilian tennis player Joao Lucas Reis da Silva, and the impact of his openness on his sexuality in the world of tennis.
In any case, this is starting to do a lot. The problem lies in summarizing multiple notifications from the same application. Apple Intelligence tries to summarize them all in a few words in order to save the user a few seconds, but this is an extremely delicate exercise – because press headlines are already, in general, summaries which give a small idea of the content articles.
However, it should be noted here that most AI-generated summaries are unique depending on the device and the notifications received; the combinations are not necessarily the same from one user to another. Despite everything, “ It is essential that Apple fixes this problem urgently », asks a spokesperson for the BBC. « It is vital that our readers can trust any information or articles published on our behalf, including notifications », he adds.
Apple was notified of these errors, but did not want to comment on the situation. There BBC makes public the disinformation produced by Apple Intelligence for its apps, but the summary function is likely to say anything with all applications, and not just those from the press.
