Apple recently released the iOS 18.3 developer beta and has decided to temporarily disable the AI summary feature for news and entertainment app notifications. This feature, originally supported by Apple's smart technology, received considerable criticism from users during its use, particularly due to serious errors in summarizing content, such as misinterpretations of reports from the BBC. According to reports from MacRumors and 9to5Mac, Apple stated that it will re-enable this feature in future software updates and continue to improve it.

Recently, Apple Inc. announced the suspension of all news and entertainment app summary notifications in the latest developer previews of iOS 18.3, iPadOS 18.3, and macOS Sequoia 15.3 due to severe misinformation in AI-generated news summaries. This adjustment stems from a complaint made by the BBC, which pointed out that Apple’s AI system seriously distorted facts in a report, falsely claiming that Luigi Mangione, the suspect in the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, chose to shoot.

Apple recently launched a new feature called AI News Summary, but this feature has frequently made serious mistakes when summarizing breaking news, resulting in users receiving a large amount of misinformation. Since the launch of this feature, many news organizations and users have expressed strong dissatisfaction, believing that Apple's technology is not yet mature enough to effectively provide accurate information. Reports suggest that Geoffrey Fowler, a technology columnist at the Washington Post, posted on social media, pointing out that Apple's AI misrepresented a piece of news in a summary.

According to leaker Mark Gurman, Apple may introduce AI voice control features in its next-generation Magic Mouse, sparking widespread public interest. Gurman emphasized that while the integration of AI technology has become a trend in hardware development, there is currently no solid evidence that the new Magic Mouse will support AI voice control.
