According to official news from Nanchong Media, a woman in Nanbu County, Sichuan Province used an AI large model to create false articles about the stock market and published them online. She was given administrative punishment by the police for disrupting the financial market order, and the relevant false content has been completely removed.
On May 20 this year, the person involved, Wang, used AI to generate an article of about 3,000 words and published it on the Toutiao platform. The article fabricated predictions about the A-share market and distorted the interpretation of securities regulatory policies, with content that was highly misleading. After investigation, it was found that the core purpose of Wang's publication was to create a hot topic to gain traffic and profit from the platform's traffic revenue. Local police determined that her behavior constituted fabricating and spreading false securities information and imposed administrative punishment accordingly.
This case is another example of an AI-related false stock market rumor penalty this year. Earlier in May, the Beijing Securities Regulatory Bureau also handled a similar case, where the person rephrased false stock market information and posted it on a WeChat official account. Despite earning only over 100 yuan, they were fined 250,000 yuan.
The article also mentions relevant legal constraints. The Securities Law clearly prohibits the fabrication and dissemination of false and misleading securities information. Offenders will have their illegal gains confiscated and be fined 1 to 10 times the amount of the gains. If there are no illegal gains or the gains are less than 200,000 yuan, the fine range is between 200,000 and 2,000,000 yuan. Regulators continue to intensify their efforts to crack down on such activities, clearly stating that AI cannot be used as an excuse for false rumors.
