I have a few friends at the Beeb, albeit not in the newsroom, and they have a blanket ban on ALL GenAI tools that aren't self-hosted. I would be very surprised if IT at the BBC wasn't blocking Apple Intelligence outright.

Although reading the article, I can't really tell if this means content was rewritten on the BBC content side, or a hallucination on-device using BBC content.

Do any of them actually use self hosted tools?

I'm a big fan of self hosted stuff, but I always viewed it as a niche, not something that people other than devs are using in any meaningful capacity (with a big problem being AMD/Nvidia/Apple are all price gouging the hardware for it).
