Apple falsely claims Luke Littler won darts championship


An AI-generated notification says the teen has won the tournament before the final is even played.

Within hours on Friday, another AI notification summary falsely told some BBC Sport app users that Tennis great Rafael Nadal had come out as gay. The latest examples come after journalist body Reporters Without Borders (also known as RSF) called on Apple to axe its AI-powered summaries of news stories last month.
