Costfoto | Nurphoto | Getty Images Chinese online gaming stocks rose Wednesday, recovering some losses from the previous session after the country’s top gaming regulator pledged to “further modify and improve” draft rules aimed at curbing excessive online gaming and spending. On Saturday, China’s National Press and Publication Administration also vowed in a WeChat statement to “carefully study” the concerns of stakeholders — a day after  fresh rules that it proposed  sank the Hong Kong-listed shares  of Tencent, NetEase and Bilibili. The regulator, which also controls the publication of new games in the world’s largest online gaming market, then said Monday that it  approved more than 100 new domestic games , after saying Friday that it approved 40 imported games. “We believe these fire-quenching measures may help to slightly ease market concerns,

  Elon Musk, chief executive officer of Tesla Inc., during a fireside discussion on artificial intelligence risks with Rishi Sunak, UK prime minister, not pictured, in London, UK, on Thursday, Nov. 2, 2023.  Tolga Akmen | Bloomberg | Getty Images Elon Musk  insists artificial intelligence  will get humans to a point where "no job is needed." Are there signs this prediction is already becoming true? Headline numbers can make that seem so. According to a recent report of 750 business leaders using AI from  ResumeBuilder , 37% say the technology replaced workers in 2023.

Santiago | Getty Images Tesla ’s troubles with labor unions in Scandinavia deepened as it lost  legal action against Sweden’s postal service  over its refusal to deliver license plates to the U.S. electric vehicle giant. The  postal service’s workers blocked  Tesla license plate deliveries late last month in a show of solidarity with mechanics striking over the company’s refusal to sign a collective bargaining agreement with employees, which is customary in Sweden. Tesla took legal action while CEO  Elon Musk  branded the move “insane,” but a Swedish court ruled Thursday that PostNord will not be forced to deliver license plates for now. Possibly more concerning for Musk, however, will be the sympathy strikes spreading throughout Scandinavia as fellow unions coalesce their support behind the region’s de
