China targets stock market fake news with stricter regulations

China's securities watchdog plans to increase efforts against fake news in the stock market. This move comes as artificial intelligence makes it easier to spread misinformation, according to state media reports. The China Securities Regulatory Commission will collaborate with police and cyberspace regulators to target those spreading false information. They aim to clarify rumors and improve investor education. This announcement aligns with World Consumer Rights Day, highlighting the importance of consumer protection in China.
