Other examples from the article but not in the headline:

Meanwhile, a separate AI summary told some users of the BBC Sport app that "Brazilian tennis player, Rafael Nadal, comes out as gay".

Someone is going to get sued. Inevitably it'll be quoted verbatim at some point.

We are in such a bad place with this technology. And it is beyond criticism because of the amount of money resting on it.

The worst part is that Apple is attributing the false claims to BBC News, making it seem like they're the source of the misinformation.

They could at least take responsibility for their own idiocy.
