Kagi News has been pretty accurate. Source information is provided along with the summary and key details too.

AI summarizes are good for getting a feel of if you want to read an article or not. Even with Kagi News I verify key facts myself.

Kagi News is basically a summary of news articles fed into the context. It's different from what the op is about, that is just asking an LLM with web access to query the news.

I hate saying people are holding it wrong but given just given how LLMs work, how did anyone expect that this would go right? Managing the LLM's context is the game. I feel like ChatGPT has done such a disservice for teaching users how to actually use these tools and what their failure modes are.
