It's not Siri, but I'm surprised they didn't immediately kill a feature which alerted people with misleading headlines like "Luigi Mangione shoots himself" or that Rafael Nadal has come out as gay. An using the BBC's icon next to them!

Apple recently announced they are disabling AI notification summaries for news apps in response to these high profile incidents. Seems like the entire feature should be rethought.
Yes Apple Intelligence enabled by default, but the notification summaries for news apps, one small part of the "suite", will be disabled (without a way to enable it) until further notice.
Not to defend the output--notification summaries clearly need work--but it used the BBC icon because it was summarizing the 20+ alerts sent to that user by the BBC app.
