Apple ’s A.I. auto-summarizer for notifications is the most annoying feature.

Users are also complaining about an onerous software-update process and malfunctioning Siri mechanisms.

Apple Intelligence doesn’t appear to be driving a sales surge for the new iPhone 16 lineup.

Analysts warn that iPhone sales aren't getting a much-needed boost.

Big Tech is falling into a vortex of self-propelling errors that’s had the effect of polluting the digital information ecosystem.

There may very well be a cap on how far these models can go, and Apple is coming up on that right now, with a flurry of notification-summary mistakes.

Perhaps Apple has some remedies awaiting.
