Hi, I just unpacked an iPhone and I noticed this weird widget that was pre-added to my home-screen. Looks like it is ads! Is this a new normal behavior for Apple?
When you click on it you get redirected to the app-store to download this ticket app

You are correct, this is default behaviour. Siri needs some time to train itself to understand what you want to do with your iPhone, so by default it just gives you random suggestions to see what sticks.
The text I quoted is directed at the developer of the app. I just used it as proof that AppClips can be suggested by Siri.
Technically this is not an ad, since as far as I know nobody got paid, but I agree that this is annoying.
In not too familiar with the App Intents and Siri Kit frameworks, which power these suggestions, so I can’t give you more details.
