Tempo.co,, Jakarta – Journalists from the Freedom Press Sans Frontières group urge Apple To remove a new artificial intelligence (IA) It is necessary to summarize the reports after having generated false BBC titles.
The counterpoup intervenes after the push notifications generated by Apple Intelligence and sent to users last week have wrongly summed up a BBC report according to which Luigi Mangione, the suspect behind the murder of the director general of Unitedhealthcare, was shot .
The BBC said it has contacted Apple about the functionality to raise concerns and ask Apple to solve the problem, but could not confirm if Apple had answered its complaint.
Journalists without manager of Borders technology and journalism, Vincent Berthier, called Apple to “act in a responsible manner by removing this functionality”.
“AI is a probability machine, and the facts cannot be decided by launching dice,” said Berthier in a statement on Wednesday, as CNN reported.
“The automated production of false information allocated to the media is a hard blow for their credibility and compromises public law to reliable information on current events,” he said.
More broadly, journalists without borders said that he was deeply concerned about the risks that the new IA tools put in the media. He noted that the incident stressed how AI is still “too immature to produce reliable information for the public, and should not be authorized on the market for such uses”.
“The probabilistic way in which AI systems automatically operate disqualifies as a reliable technology for the media that can be used in solutions intended for the general public,” said journalists without borders in a press release. Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comments.
Apple presented its generative AI tool in the United States in June, praising the capacity of the functionality to summarize specific content in paragraphs, chips, tables or easily digestible lists. To rationalize the flow of information media, Apple allows users of iphones, iPads and Macs to group notifications, generating a list of news in a single push alert.
Since the IA The functionality was launched publicly at the end of October, users reported that it also summarized a New York Times story saying that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was arrested. In fact, the International Criminal Court has just issued an arrest warrant against Netanyahu.
