Apple Intelligence was launched in the United Kingdom last week.
Journalists without borders, also known as RSF, said that it was “very concerned about the risks posed to the media” by AI tools.
The group said,, external The BBC incident proves that “generative AI services are still too immature to produce reliable information for the public”.
Vincent Berthier, the head of the RSF technology and journalism office, added: “AIS are probability machines, and the facts cannot be decided by a dice roll.
“RSF calls for Apple to act responsible for deleting this functionality. The automated production of false information allocated to a media is a blow for the credibility of the exit and a danger for public law to reliable information on current affairs.”
Apple has not made any comments since the story broke out last week.
When the group notification involving BBC News emerged, a spokesman for the BBC said that the company had contacted Apple “to raise this concern and solve the problem.”
The notification which made a false assertion on Mangione was otherwise exact in its summaries on the overthrow of the Bashar al-Assad regime in Syria and an update on the South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol.
The BBC has not yet confirmed if Apple has responded to its complaint.
Mangione has now been accused of first degree murder in the murder of Mr. Thompson.
