China to take action on the stock market false news as AI spurs misinformation, says state media


Shanghai ((Reuters)) – The Chinese Securities Guard will strengthen the monitoring of false information on the stock market and cooperate with police and cyber regulatory authorities to intervene for those who spread false news, making AI, official media reported on Saturday.

The regulatory bodies “hit soon, hit hard and hit the heart”, said The Securities Times.

Artificial intelligence has become a new tool for creating and disseminating misleading information for investors or manipulating shares and attracting investors with the prospect of getting rich quickly in a separate article by Shanghai Securities.

The rise of the Chinese company AI Deepseek has led retail investors and fund managers to accept AI to help them evaluate and invest, but their acceptance of this technology also increases the risk of being vulnerable to false news created by artificial intelligence.

The Securities Times said that the Chinese Regulatory Committee for Securities would be more active in distinguishing legends on the stock market by issuing and strengthening the education and instructions of investors to “strengthen the ability of investors to see” false information.

The Securities Times and Shanghai Securities reports agree with the annual World Consumer Rights Day on March 15, which in China became the main event for television and social media to support consumer protection.
