川普將於週三就伊朗戰爭向全國發表談話——各界預期內容一覽

(SeaPRwire) - T.S. Eliot 曾寫道:「四月是最殘酷的月份。」 隨著美國原油價格自年初以來幾乎翻倍,且荷姆茲海峽(Strait of Hormuz)仍處於半封鎖狀態,從汽車、航班到依賴塑膠或半導體(用於驅動手機或眾人熱議的 AI 技術)的各類產品成本皆大幅攀升,四月確實正演變成一個非常殘酷的月份。美國總統 Donald Trump 將於週三晚間 9 點(美東時間)向全國發表談話,白宮稱此為「關於伊朗的重要更新」——這將是他自美國與以色列於 2 月 28 日發動空襲以來的首次黃金時段演說。該演說將在美國四大廣播電視網播出,迫使原定節目必須讓路,包括《The Masked Singer》的季終集以及《Survivor》的特別節目。 此次演說正值美國汽油價格平均突破每加侖 4 美元大關之際,且在近期民調中,Donald Trump 的支持率已跌破 40%,儘管他仍持續推動一場大多數美國人表示反對的戰爭。對 Donald Trump 而言,在政治上,解釋這場戰爭的「誰、什麼、為什麼以及何時」已變得不可避免。 Donald Trump 可能會說什麼 根據 Donald Trump 自己的言論與白宮洩露的消息,大致輪廓已清晰可見。過去一天,Donald Trump 反覆向記者表示,他有一項為期 2 至 3 週的結束行動計畫,這與他週三稍早對 Reuters 的說法一致,即美國將「很快撤出伊朗」,並在必要時返回進行「定點打擊」。其論述似乎旨在營造勝利氛圍:Donald Trump 已宣稱實現了「全面政權更迭」(儘管事實上伊朗並未更換政府),並稱美國的行動已確保伊朗永遠無法獲得核武器。 Eurasia Group 負責伊朗與石油事務的資深分析師 Gregory Brew 在 X 上指出,政府似乎正圍繞一個特定理由進行整合:即伊朗一直在建造一個由飛彈與無人機組成的「盾牌」,企圖在背後秘密重建其核計畫,而美國必須在為時已晚之前採取行動。 「他可能會宣稱海峽暢通無阻,沒有任何問題,」Gulf Oil 的資深石油分析師兼顧問 Tom Kloza 對 表示,「你永遠無法預料。」 停火的前景比公開姿態所暗示的更為混亂。Donald Trump 在 Truth Social 上聲稱伊朗總統曾請求停火,但德黑蘭方面的公開回應迅速且尖銳:伊朗總統 Masoud Pezeshkian 辦公室的發言人在 X 上寫道:「對於罪犯的妄想與謊言,我們不予理會。」然而,據 Bloomberg 報導,幕後似乎確實存在一條外交軌道。副總統 JD Vance 曾於週二與巴基斯坦調停人進行對話,傳達了一則被消息人士形容為「嚴厲」的訊息,稱 Donald Trump 已「失去耐心」,若未達成協議,對伊朗基礎設施的壓力將會增加。Donald Trump 指派 JD Vance 私下傳達美國在滿足特定要求的前提下,對停火持開放態度。 作為反制宣傳的跡象,伊朗官媒週三報導稱,Pezeshkian 將發布一封直接致美國人民的「重要」信函,預計很快就會公布。 Kloza 警告,在這種背景下,即使是「停火」這個詞也充滿變數。「一個人的停火可能是另一個人的戰爭火坑,」他說,「這不是數學語言,而是非常模稜兩可的。」 對荷姆茲海峽的混亂認知 目前尚不清楚 Donald Trump 的先決條件究竟是什麼。週二,他告訴歐洲盟友「去買你們自己的石油」,並稱確保荷姆茲海峽的安全不再是美國的問題。華爾街對此表示歡呼。到了週三,Donald Trump 在 Truth Social 上寫道,他希望荷姆茲海峽在停火談判開始前保持「開放、自由且暢通」。 阿拉伯聯合大公國對此做出回應,要求聯合國授權包括使用武力在內的措施以重新開放海峽,這顯示出依賴該航道的波斯灣國家正日益絕望。這可能是對市場影響最深遠的發展:海峽是石油市場最關心的單一變數,而 Donald Trump 實際上已對此撒手不管(隨後又再次介入)。 這場演說是在局勢持續升級的背景下進行的。週三上午,一枚伊朗飛彈擊中了卡達水域的一艘燃油輪,而胡塞武裝(Houthi)則向以色列發射了第三波飛彈。中東地區已有超過 3,000 人喪生,其中包括 13 名美國軍人。週二,一名美國記者在伊拉克被疑似伊朗支持的武裝分子綁架。 International Energy Agency 已將荷姆茲海峽的中斷稱為歷史上最大的供應中斷。IEA 執行董事 Fatih Birol 週三警告稱,四月的情況將比三月嚴重得多,因為戰爭開始時已在運輸途中的石油貨物現已全數交付。 「到了四月,就什麼都沒有了,」Birol 說。 BCA Research 的 Marko Papic 估計全球每天損失 450 萬至 500 萬桶石油,約佔全球供應量的 5%,但他警告稱,隨著戰略儲備耗盡,這一數字將在四月中旬翻倍。Kloza 估計,原油、精煉產品與石化產品的累計損失正接近 5 億桶。 「我有種預感,無論他說什麼,都不會達到真正扭轉這些高價位的預期效果,」Kloza 說,「我認為我們已經開啟了一場無法輕易停止的進程。」 IEA 成員國釋放了 4 億桶戰略石油儲備,這是史上最大規模的釋放,確實有所幫助,但 Kloza 從數學角度分析道:「當你考慮到每天損失 1,000 萬至 2,000 萬桶石油,而釋放量僅為 130 萬桶時,這顯然是以卵擊石。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Deutsche Bank 詢問 AI 是否真能解決經濟通膨問題。機器人給出答案 News

Deutsche Bank 詢問 AI 是否真能解決經濟通膨問題。機器人給出答案

(SeaPRwire) - 近兩年來,一個強有力的共識逐漸形成:人工智慧是我們這個時代偉大的反通膨力量。這一邏輯受到Marc Andreessen和Vinod Khosla等億萬富翁投資者的推崇,既誘人又看似無懈可擊。人工智慧以廉價技術取代昂貴的人力勞動,大幅提升生產力,降低進入門檻,催生了大批小而精的初創企業,它們在價格和利潤率上展開競爭。按照這種思路,其結果將是通膨的長期下降,使利率在未來數年保持低位,並給予美國聯邦儲備委員會(Federal Reserve)喘息空間。 但有一個問題:當Deutsche Bank的經濟學家決定透過詢問AI工具本身來測試這個共識時,這些機器給出了不同意見。 該銀行由首席美國經濟學家Matthew Luzzetti率領的研究團隊在3月30日發布的報告中寫道:「AI是否認同這個共識?令人驚訝的是,並不認同。」 實驗過程 這項實驗設計簡單,但影響深遠。Luzzetti的團隊向三個領先的AI系統提出了一個結構化的概率問題:Deutsche Bank自家的專有工具dbLumina、OpenAI的ChatGPT-5.2,以及Anthropic的Claude Opus 4.6。提示要求每個模型針對美國通膨的四種結果(AI導致通膨上升、大致不變、輕微下降或顯著下降)在一年和五年的時間範圍內分配概率。 答案令人震驚。在一年的時間範圍內,三個工具都認為最可能的結果是影響微乎其微。但更引人注目的是:每個模型都認為AI導致通膨上升的可能性高於AI顯著降低通膨的可能性;dbLumina認為AI推高通膨的機率為40%,而顯著下降的機率僅為5%。Claude:25%對5%。ChatGPT:20%對5%。 三個模型一致指出的罪魁禍首是AI投資熱潮本身。數據中心不斷增加,半導體需求激增,AI工作負載的電力消耗急劇上升。這種需求拉動的壓力不會降低價格,反而會推高價格。即使在五年的時間範圍內(模型確實更傾向於反通膨結果),一些人預測的劇烈通縮崩潰仍處於尾部風險領域。 這與金融分析領域一些最具挑釁性的聲音所描繪的景象相比,明顯更為謹慎。James van Geelen的Citrini Research(頂級財經Substack)在2月以即將到來的「白領衰退」場景震動了市場,認為AI不僅會降低價格,還會摧毀支撐價格的消費者基礎。在一篇以2028年報導形式寫成的病毒式「思想實驗」中,Citrini描述了「幽靈GDP」:AI推高國民帳戶,同時大規模裁員掏空家庭收入,而「機器在非必需品上的支出為零」。在他的場景中,結果是一個負反饋循環——企業採用AI引發失業,進而引發更多AI採用——最終導致10.2%的失業率和S&P 500指數38%的崩盤。 2026年3月Anthropic的一項研究發現,像Claude這類AI工具在理論上能夠自動化高薪白領領域的絕大多數任務:94%的電腦和數學工作;90%的辦公和行政職位——但實際採用率僅為該潛力的一小部分。如果AI彌合了這一差距,工資和服務成本的下行壓力可能會很大,儘管研究人員指出目前尚未出現失業率的系統性上升。 Anthropic研究人員發現,AI的實際採用率僅為AI工具能力範圍的一小部分。Anthropic:「AI對勞動力市場的影響:一項新指標與早期證據」 接下來可能發生什麼? Deutsche Bank的AI工具並未走得那麼遠。它們的共同訊息更為審慎:反通膨的承諾是真實的,但被誇大了;時間線比市場預期的更長;而短期的投資激增可能會完全走向相反的方向。 Deutsche Bank的經濟學家留下了一個哲學性的收尾。他們指出,如果AI對自身的通膨影響判斷錯誤,或許我們應該「重新評估它對預測等複雜知識工作可能帶來的變革性影響,至少在目前的形式下」。如果它是對的,市場可能在實際情況發生之前就已經將AI驅動的反通膨因素納入定價。 令人惱火的是,從不同角度來看,AI可能太像編程它的經濟學家了。Luzzetti的團隊寫道:「一個折衷的觀點是,在高度不確定的環境和較長的時間範圍內,AI透過對各種結果分配相對平均的概率來採取明智的方法。」「在接受了經濟學家的文本語料訓練後,AI只不過是在扮演俗話說的『兩手經濟學家』,在未知的背景下對其觀點進行對衝。」 無論如何,這些機器被直接問及它們自身的經濟遺產。 它們的答案是:這很複雜。 在撰寫這篇報導時,記者使用生成式AI作為研究工具。編輯在發布前驗證了資訊的準確性。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Gibraltar sees prediction markets as a substantial area of potential growth. iGame

Gibraltar sees prediction markets as a substantial area of potential growth.

(AsiaGameHub) - Gibraltar is exploring a new path to secure growth as it navigates headwinds brought on by the UK’s decision to raise gambling taxes. Nigel Feetham, the British Overseas Territory’s Minister for Justice, Trade and Industry, told parliament that the government had granted a license to a prediction markets firm, describing the sector as a “substantial area of potential growth” for Gibraltar. Gibraltar’s government lobbied intensely against the UK’s choice to increase online gambling tax, arguing the move would directly hit tax revenues and negatively impact the island’s economy. Nevertheless, UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves announced that remote gaming duty will nearly double to 40%, taking effect from today (1 April). A new 25% general betting duty rate for remote betting will also be rolled out starting April 2027. Feetham stated: “Following the implementation of the recent UK gambling duty hikes, I have taken on more direct responsibility for promoting Gibraltar’s regulatory offering. “There is no space for complacency, nor for unnecessary delays when enabling responsible economic activity in these key sectors. We must keep adapting decisively to a shifting global economic landscape. This is fully aligned with the government’s core strategic goal of economic diversification.” While Feetham has not yet publicly named the licensed firm in question, Predict Street Ltd has been added as a betting intermediary to the official register of approved licensed operators hosted on the Gibraltar government’s website. Per Predict Street’s official site, the company is the official prediction market partner of the upcoming 2026 FIFA World Cup and is scheduled to launch on 9 April. However, no reference to the company appears anywhere on the official FIFA World Cup website. Prediction market platforms including Kalshi and Polymarket have grown rapidly across the US, providing an alternative to standard online sports betting in states where the traditional vertical is currently prohibited. That rapid rise has been met with controversy, however, as critics argue these platforms are facilitating betting activity illegally. At the same time, a number of countries outside the US, including New Zealand, Australia and the Netherlands, have introduced explicit bans on prediction market operators. As a result, Gibraltar stands out as one of the few jurisdictions outside the US that appears receptive to building a hub for prediction markets, pointing to the significant potential economic benefits the sector can deliver. According to Eilers & Krejcik, prediction markets could see annual trading volumes hit one trillion dollars by 2030, a figure that underscores why Gibraltar is keen to take an open approach to the sector.

Hershey將讓Reese’s花生醬杯回歸原始配方 此前創辦人孫子上月公開抨擊

(SeaPRwire) - Hershey 公司週三表示,從明年開始將在所有 Reese's 產品中使用經典配方,此前 Reese's 創始人的孫子批評該公司轉向使用更便宜的原料。 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups 一直以來都使用真正的牛奶巧克力或黑巧克力和花生醬製作。但現在,Hershey 和 Reese's 的一小部分產品,例如迷你復活節彩蛋,使用的是含有較少巧克力的塗層。 Hershey 表示,將在 2027 年將這些產品轉回「經典的牛奶巧克力和黑巧克力配方」。 這家總部位於賓夕法尼亞州 Hershey 的公司表示,明年還將對其糖果產品組合進行其他變更,包括轉向使用天然色素,並改良 Kit-Kat 的配方使其更柔滑。該公司表示,計劃將其研發資金明年增加 25%。 該公司在一份聲明中表示:「Hershey 致力於生產消費者喜愛的產品,這意味著我們將不斷審查我們的配方,以滿足不斷變化的口味和偏好。」 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups 發明人孫子 Brad Reese 在情人節寄給 Hershey 公司品牌經理的一封公開信中引發了爭議。 Reese 在他發佈在 LinkedIn 上的信中寫道:「The Hershey Co. 如何繼續將 Reese's 定位為其旗艦品牌,一個信任、品質和領導力的象徵,同時卻悄悄地更換了建立 Reese's 最初信任的原料(牛奶巧克力 + 花生醬)?」 Hershey 承認進行了一些配方變更,但表示公司正試圖滿足消費者對創新的需求。可可價格高漲也導致 Hershey 和其他製造商近年來嘗試使用較少的巧克力。 美聯社週三聯繫 Brad Reese 尋求評論。 Brad Reese 是 H.B. Reese 的孫子,H.B. Reese 在創立自己的糖果公司(1919 年)之前曾在 Hershey 工作了兩年。H.B. Reese 於 1928 年發明了 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups;他的六個兒子最終於 1963 年將他的公司賣給了 Hershey。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

Nepal steps up enforcement of online gambling ban iGame

Nepal steps up enforcement of online gambling ban

(AsiaGameHub) - Nepal’s Ministry of Communications and Information Technology has initiated steps to enforce the nation's ban on online gambling by blocking access to associated applications and websites. According to reports from The Himalayan Times, these government directives were put into effect over the weekend, with officials implementing previously announced measures. The decision regarding online gambling platforms was finalized during a meeting chaired by Minister for Communications and Information Technology Bikram Timilsina, alongside ministry officials and division heads. Collaborative efforts between the Nepal Telecommunications Authority and the country's internet service providers were instrumental in disabling access to the targeted apps and websites. Crucially, the government is now blocking IP addresses within Nepal to expedite action against any remaining operators, aiming to prevent the growth of a black market under stricter domestic regulations. Prior to this ban, Nepal had a considerable grey market for online gambling, which had been experiencing a rise in user engagement. Reports indicate that this market was expanding at an approximate rate of 10% annually, largely driven by increased mobile phone usage and significant improvements in data quality. This action follows India's recent decision to enact the Promotion and Regulation of Online Gambling Bill 2025, which prohibits the promotion of real-money gaming due to its perceived negative societal consequences. It is suggested that a substantial number of Nepalese individuals engaged in gambling through Indian betting platforms, and the two countries share interconnected payment systems. India also moved swiftly to prevent its residents from participating in illegal gambling, establishing the Online Gaming Authority of India under the Electronics and IT Ministry to oversee enforcement and identify illicit activities. The Indian government has also confirmed that repeat offenders who violate the ban could face imprisonment and fines. Want to hear more stories like this?

UKGC Announces April Deadlines for Key Gambling Review Evaluations iGame

UKGC Announces April Deadlines for Key Gambling Review Evaluations

(AsiaGameHub) - The UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) has informed gambling licensees and other interested parties about two approaching deadlines concerning its assessment of regulations. The initial deadline is for the conclusion of the Commission's consultation regarding revisions to the Destination of Regulatory Settlements, set for April 2nd. This consultation is part of the regulator's adaptations subsequent to the implementation of the statutory levy, which is scheduled for April 2025 as a key provision of the Gambling Review's White Paper, High Stakes: Gambling Reform for the Digital Age. A re-evaluation of existing procedures was deemed essential because financial penalties levied by the UKGC are deposited into the UK's Consolidated Fund. Nevertheless, regulatory settlements and payments made instead of formal penalties have traditionally taken a different route, frequently supporting research, prevention, and treatment (RPT) programs independent of central government bodies. This approach has now become outdated due to the cessation of GambleAware's operations and the shift to a statutory levy framework. The levy consolidates RPT funding under designated public entities, bringing in more rigorous supervision, alignment, and assessment of fund distribution. Consequently, the UKGC has put forward a proposal to amend its Statement of Principles for Determining Financial Penalties, aiming to ensure that regulatory settlements correspond with financial penalties. The Commission suggests that all subsequent regulatory settlements should be paid directly into the Consolidated Fund, thereby guaranteeing uniformity, promptness, and governmental scrutiny of funds from enforcement actions. This initiative seeks to prevent the emergence of separate funding mechanisms alongside the statutory levy. In addition to this consultation, the UKGC has also noted advancements in the assessment of the Gambling Act Review (GAR). This evaluation is being carried out by the National Centre for Social Research (NatCen), which reports to the DCMS. Operators have been asked to take part in an online survey and subsequent interviews to offer their insights on how GAR reforms are being applied in practice. Important aspects under consideration include checks for financial vulnerability, limits on stakes for online slots, and incentives promoting social responsibility. The survey concludes on April 10th, and the Commission is urging widespread involvement to assist in shaping future regulatory improvements. Collectively, these two deadlines signify a crucial milestone for UK gambling policy. The consultation on regulatory settlements indicates the concluding stages of harmonizing enforcement procedures with the statutory levy, whereas the GAR evaluation aims to gauge the practical effects of one of the most extensive reform initiatives in the industry's recent past. For the industry, April represents more than just a procedural landmark; it signifies a shift from putting measures into effect to examining them, as regulators and the government start to evaluate the practical effectiveness of the UK's updated gambling framework.

Examining the key players as Alberta confirms its iGaming launch date iGame

Examining the key players as Alberta confirms its iGaming launch date

(AsiaGameHub) - Potential operators have been alerted following Alberta's confirmation that its regulated online gambling sector is set to commence operations on July 13. Becoming Canada's second regulated jurisdiction alongside Ontario, the province has seen several major industry players confirm plans to enter a market projected to generate more than $700m annually. PointsBet and Caesars Entertainment have already initiated pre-registration processes for residents of Alberta prior to the official launch. Simultaneously, operators including BetMGM, DraftKings, FanDuel, and Betway have announced their entry into the market to expand their existing footprint in Canada. For Betway and its parent firm, Super Group, the primary task involves shifting players from their unregulated offerings to the new regulated platform. Before this regulatory framework, Play Alberta was the sole entity legally permitted to provide iGaming products. Nevertheless, it is believed that 70% of Alberta's gamblers participated in the unregulated market. In a February address to investors, Neal Menashe, CEO of Super Group, remarked: “It is known that Alberta is moving toward regulation. We are prepared, having drawn lessons from Ontario regarding the migration of customers from our dot.com operations. “We have improved our offerings for the rest of Canada as well as Ontario. These enhancements will be integrated into our Alberta product. Once the regulations are finalized and we are set to launch, we will proceed in Alberta.” Menashe also anticipated a more cautious strategy from Super Group’s rivals than was seen during Ontario's market opening, which was characterized by significant early marketing spend. Separately, DraftKings has designated funds for its Alberta expansion. Meanwhile, Flutter, the parent company of FanDuel, has factored the Alberta launch into its 2026 guidance for US operations, forecasting a 12% year-over-year revenue increase to $7.8bn. “We are entering 2026 from a position of strength, ready to leverage the sustained robust growth anticipated in the iGaming sector,” Flutter informed its investors. Significantly absent from the roster of confirmed entrants is bet365, which has yet to indicate its plans for the region. However, considering its existing operations in Ontario and its focus on North American expansion, Alberta likely represents a promising prospect for the UK-based operator. The operational framework of Alberta's market will be recognizable to many established operators due to its close resemblance to Ontario's model. A 20% tax on gross gaming revenue will be applied to operators, mirroring Ontario's rate, with the Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) serving as the regulatory body. This contrasts with the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario, which regulates that province. Additionally, the Alberta iGaming Corporation (AiGC) will function as a distinct conduct and management agency, fulfilling a role similar to that of iGaming Ontario. Central regulations for the new market prioritize social responsibility and player safety, implementing stringent rules regarding permissible advertising scope. Upon launch, Alberta players will gain access to a provincial self-exclusion registry as well as tools for setting financial and time limits. “In this new regulated environment, the protection of players and social responsibility are central to our operations,” stated a letter reviewed by iGaming Expert and authored by Dale Nally, the Minister of Service Alberta and Red Tape Reduction, who oversees iGaming. “The introduction of a regulated iGaming market marks an exciting milestone for our province. I am confident that by collaborating, we can establish a market that is both competitive and socially responsible. The future of iGaming in Alberta is promising, and with your cooperation, we will ensure its success for all stakeholders.” In addition to the major operators previously noted, domestic and North American-centric brands like BetRivers, the ScoreBet, and NorthStar Gaming have declared declared their intention to apply for registration in Alberta. While many anticipated a market opening in the second quarter of 2026, Nally explained that the decision to delay until July was made in response to operator feedback indicating a need for additional time to meet the new market's compliance standards.

Honda Makes Gachaco a Consolidated Subsidiary by Subscribing to New Shares of Gachaco Issued Through Third-party Allotment JCN Newswire

Honda Makes Gachaco a Consolidated Subsidiary by Subscribing to New Shares of Gachaco Issued Through Third-party Allotment

TOKYO, Japan, Apr 1, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (Honda) today announced that it has subscribed to new shares of Gachaco, Inc. (Gachaco) issued through a third-party allotment (“this transaction”), thereby making Gachaco a consolidated subsidiary of Honda.Gachaco was established in April 2022 as a joint venture of five companies in Japan — Honda, ENEOS Holdings, Kawasaki Motors, Ltd., Suzuki Motor Corporation and Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. — to provide a sharing service of standardized swappable batteries for electric motorcycles and to establish and maintain infrastructure for such sharing services.Since October 2022, Gachaco has been installing Gachaco battery swapping stations primarily in Tokyo, where electric motorcycle users with a Gachaco membership can efficiently swap a depleted battery for a fully charged one whenever needed, without any waiting time for charging. The company has rolled out the service in urban areas of Tokyo, starting with corporate customers and, in January 2024, the service was expanded to individual customers as well. Gachaco has been building out its infrastructure to create an environment where anyone can use electric motorcycles without worrying about charging time and riding range. Currently, the company is expanding its network of Gachaco stations, primarily in Tokyo and Osaka, while also pursuing the establishment of a next-generation energy infrastructure that contributes to a decarbonized and circular society.Honda is striving to achieve carbon neutrality for all products and corporate activities Honda is involved in by 2050, and one of the key initiatives toward this goal is the popularization of electric mobility products. In addition to expanding the lineup of electric models, Honda believes that it is important to build battery charging and supply networks so that people can use their electric motorcycles with peace of mind; therefore, Honda has been considering Gachaco as an important partner for realizing such a future. Going forward, in order to continue to enhance the usage environment for electric motorcycle products, Honda realized that a motorcycle manufacturer needs to take the lead in this initiative. Based on this reasoning, Honda has decided to acquire additional shares in Gachaco.As a subsidiary of Honda, Gachaco will further accelerate its ongoing initiatives to build battery charging and supply networks and work to expand its battery sharing service for users of electric construction machinery and equipment powered by swappable batteries. In addition, Gachaco will work to offer rental and maintenance services for battery swapping stations to be installed on the premises of business facilities of corporate customers with large fleets of electric motorcycles. Through these initiatives, Honda will lead the growth of Gachaco business and establish an environment where more customers can use electric mobility products safely with complete peace of mind.Overview of the transactionClass of subscribed sharesCommon shares of Gachaco Inc.Number of subscribed shares340,000 sharesAmount to be paid340,000,000 yenHonda shareholding ratio after the transaction47%About GachacoCompany nameGachaco Inc.Location4F, THE CORNER Shibakoen,2-8-2 Shibakoen, Minato-ku, Tokyo 1050011, JapanEstablishedApril 1, 2022RepresentativeMasahide Hirose, PresidentShareholdersHonda Motor Co., Ltd.,ENEOS Innovation Partners Godo Kaisha*,Suzuki Motor Corporation,Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd.,Kawasaki Motors, Ltd.,BusinessOperation of battery charging/swapping stations to achieve widespread useand broader applications of standardized swappable batteries*ENEOS Holdings, Inc. has invested in Gachaco through its investment company, ENEOS Innovation Partners Godo KaishaGachaco station Copyright 2026 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

9 個理由顯示 AI 暫時不會取代你的工作

(SeaPRwire) - 僱主正面臨採用人工智慧並裁減員工的巨大壓力。投資者和執行長們幻想著削減成本、提高利潤率;每位資訊長都被迫提出人工智慧計劃,以跟上競爭對手的步伐。關於人工智慧代理驅動革命的夢想無處不在。 但領導者不應該覺得必須急於擁抱一個尚未到來的未來。有許多理由需要保持謹慎。以下是九個原因: 「專家」的預測常常錯得離譜。 諾貝爾獎得主、人工智慧先驅 Geoffrey Hinton 在 2016 年曾說:「人們現在應該停止培訓放射科醫師了……顯而易見,在五年內,深度學習的表現將會超越放射科醫師。」但十年後,幾乎沒有放射科醫師被取代。Google 共同創辦人 Sergey Brin 在 2012 年承諾,無人駕駛汽車將在 2017 年普及。今天,在那個承諾(以及 Elon Musk 後續的許多承諾)過去 14 年後,全自動駕駛汽車仍然是一項有限的實驗,僅在少數天氣良好的城市提供。 大型科技公司希望您相信它們已經創造出通用人工智慧。 這並不代表那是真的。當科技公司的執行長們警告就業末日時,他們可能只是在為萬一成真時預留後路,但也可能他們只是想讓您推高他們公司的估值。對他們所做的每一個預測都應持保留態度。 談到對就業的影響,人工智慧巨頭的數據並未支持他們的說法。 Anthropic 的執行長一直在警告「就業末日」,但 Anthropic 自己最近的研究顯示了認知與現實之間的差距。該公司預測人工智慧在金融和建築等領域可能具有巨大潛力。但它所謂的「觀察到的人工智慧覆蓋範圍」(一個描述現實世界情況的美妙說法)只佔理論潛力的一小部分,小到可笑。他們想像人工智慧可能做的事與它實際在做的事,兩者相差十萬八千里。 當前的人工智慧是「參差不齊」的(擅長某些事,但不擅長其他事),這意味著它很少能完全取代人類。 人工智慧確實可以幫助提高某些工作者的生產力,但即使在人工智慧擅長的任務上,模型和代理也經常犯下愚蠢的錯誤,其中一些錯誤難以察覺。而且,任務不等於工作:即使人工智慧能完成一個人工作中的某些部分,也不代表它能完成那個人的全部工作。 當前的人工智慧模型在超越語言方面仍有困難。 一些白領工作只涉及文字,但許多工作涉及視覺理解:解讀圖像、圖表、圖解、藍圖、地圖等等。想像人工智慧接管所有工作似乎很容易,尤其是如果您把它看作某種魔法。但一旦您意識到當前的人工智慧只是一種工具,有其優點和弱點,您就會開始明白,這項技術可能只會取代某些職業的工人,而非其他職業(更常見的是只會增強人類的工作)。即使在看似簡單的客戶服務領域,結果也常常令人失望。Remote Labor Index 專注於那些可以完全透過網路完成的工作,發現實際上只有不到 4.5% 的工作能由人工智慧代理充分完成。 大多數體力勞動遠遠超出了當前人工智慧的能力範圍。 別指望人工智慧會很快取代水管工、木匠、汽車技師、護士、房屋清潔工、森林護管員、廚師、家電維修工、園丁或許多其他工作。 許多歸咎於人工智慧的裁員,其實與人工智慧無關。 最近金融科技公司 Block 的大規模裁員可能就是這種情況;一些人將其視為執行長 Jack Dorsey 在股價暴跌後為重拾投資者信心所做的努力。在許多情況下,人工智慧可能只是充當遮羞布,掩蓋實際由財務表現不佳或先前過度招聘所驅動的裁員。 一些歸咎於人工智慧的裁員並未持久。 我稱之為「Klarna 效應」,以先買後付公司 Klarna 為例,該公司自豪地進行了大規模的人工智慧裁員,結果卻又撤銷了。許多被裁員的員工從事客戶服務工作,但 11 個月後,Klarna 決定(至少在某些情況下)畢竟還是需要「真人」。 迄今為止,對生產力和人工智慧投資回報的總體影響仍然有限。 每家公司都在投資人工智慧,但到目前為止,大多數公司並未獲得巨大回報。 這一切可能會改變;也許有一天會改變——但很可能要等到我們看到人工智慧出現更激進的進步,而這可能還需要十年或更長時間。在此期間,建議很簡單:不要專注於取代人類。專注於如何利用人工智慧來幫助您現有的員工。 Gary Marcus 是紐約大學心理學和神經科學榮譽教授,著有六本書,包括《馴服矽谷》。 本文刊登於 2026 年 4/5 月號的《 》雜誌,標題為「9 個(還)不用對人工智慧恐慌的理由」。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

HMRC terminates 10% Bingo Duty tax for land-based venues iGame

HMRC terminates 10% Bingo Duty tax for land-based venues

(AsiaGameHub) - HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC) will no longer impose a 10% tax on gross profits earned by land-based bingo venues across the UK. This policy change was rolled out as part of the Budget announced by Chancellor of the Exchequer Rachel Reeves back in November 2025, and the new rules officially take effect as of today (1 April 2026). HMRC has clarified that bingo operators will no longer be required to file tax returns for profits generated from land-based bingo play, and the department will update its official guidance in due course to reflect these new adjustments. A statement from the agency reads: “Bingo Duty operators currently registered with HMRC will retain the ability to submit any outstanding returns online until April 2030, and notify HMRC of any over-declarations or under-declarations from previous accounting periods.” The elimination of Bingo Duty will soften the financial blow for land-based bingo hall operators, coming into force the same day that HMRC enforces an increase to remote gaming duties (RGD) from 21% to 40% – a change that will impact all wagering on online bingo. HMRC reiterated: “Bingo Duty does not apply to non-profit making bingo, private domestic bingo, or machines that are already subject to Machine Games Duty.” After the Budget announcement in November, Rank Group Plc, the operator of Mecca Bingo, publicly welcomed the decision to remove the 10% tax from land-based bingo halls. The company stated that the change will help support local jobs and investment in the land-based sector, having previously warned that a failure to reform bingo taxation could lead to widespread venue closures. However, the wider response across the industry has been more cautious. Buzz Bingo CEO Dominic Mansour described the abolition of the tax as a “full house win” for local clubs, but warned that its positive impact is being diluted by the near-doubling of RGD. Ahead of the Budget, Mansour stressed that fairer tax treatment was essential to protecting around 2,500 jobs and sustaining the company’s network of 79 venues across the UK. Tensions remain around broader regulatory developments, with the government indicating that the sector needs to provide further assurances on player protection, particularly in higher-stake gaming environments. Frustration also persists over whether the Labour government will implement planned changes to the current 80/20 rule, which sets a limited ratio for category B and C/D gaming machines in high street bingo venues and Adult Gaming Centres (ADCs) This April, DCMS announced that it had intervened to freeze planned changes that would shift the machine ratio to 50/50. Citing pressure from local councils over high street gaming operations, DCMS noted that changes to gaming machine ratios would not be implemented during the current legislative cycle. Instead, DCMS will prioritise White Paper commitments such as the statutory levy and binding online stake limits for UK gambling licences. Land-based gambling trade bodies, including BACTA, as well as major operators, have expressed frustration over the slow pace of reform, arguing that delays are preventing bingo halls from generating the revenue needed to modernise and recover from pandemic disruption and rising operating costs. The Treasury had previously backed targeted reforms for gambling venues as part of a package of measures to ease rising cost pressures on high street businesses. While the abolition of Bingo Duty represents a long-awaited concession for the sector, its overall impact is softened by the broader tightening of gambling taxation, leaving operators to navigate a far more challenging operating environment under the UK’s new 40% RGD era.

Ygam warns of growing social media influence on student gambling iGame

Ygam warns of growing social media influence on student gambling

(AsiaGameHub) - A recent study by Ygam indicates that social media is playing an increasingly significant role in how students engage with gambling. As unlicensed operators continue to infiltrate social media platforms, 34% of students who participate in gambling identified these platforms as a primary influence on their betting habits. Emily Tofield, Chief Executive Officer of Ygam, stated: “It is evident that the digital environment students inhabit is having a growing impact on gambling behaviors. We must proactively address these emerging risks to ensure students have the education and support necessary to protect themselves.” This follows warnings from the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) regarding the promotion of unlicensed operators on social media, with the regulator highlighting the “very limited progress” made by these platforms. Earlier this year, Tim Miller, the UKGC’s Executive Director of Research and Policy, criticized Meta, noting: “I would be very surprised if Meta, as one of the world’s largest tech companies, is unable to proactively use its own keyword tools to block illegal gambling advertisements. It creates the impression that they are content to ignore the issue and continue profiting from criminals and scammers until they are called out.” During the Illegal Gambling Prevention Summit last week, Rob Mabbett of Better Change cautioned that the UKGC is fighting a solitary battle against the black market and its advertising tactics. He stressed that young people face heightened risks due to content on social media, including interactions with influencers, celebrities, YouTubers, and the broader digital landscape. Mabbett argued for more robust regulation of big tech and social platforms, warning that the regulated sector is currently subject to policy decisions that are neither properly tested nor scrutinized. The influence of social media is clearly growing; in Ygam’s initial student gambling survey from 2022, fewer than one in four students cited it as a factor. Tofield has also urged universities and student unions to treat gambling harm with the same level of urgency as other risky behaviors, such as substance abuse. This aligns with recommendations from the coroner who investigated the 2020 death of Lee Adams, a gambling addict who died from a beta-blocker overdose following a prolonged gambling session. Julian Morris, Senior Coroner for Inner South London, suggested that medical professionals should screen for gambling issues just as they do for smoking or alcohol consumption. Ygam’s data further revealed that some students are spending more on gambling than on food. The charity noted an average gambling expenditure of £50.33. Comparing this to the National Student Money Survey, which reports an average weekly grocery spend of £33.70, Ygam suggests that some students are prioritizing gambling over essential nutrition. The study found that 65% of students have gambled in the past year, a decline from the 78% recorded in the inaugural 2022 Annual Student Gambling Survey. Additionally, the percentage of students reporting gambling-related harm dropped from 24% in 2023 to 18% in 2026. Further survey data indicates that slightly over half of student gamblers are primarily motivated by the desire to earn money. Male students are more likely to gamble than their female counterparts, with the average spend among male gamblers being more than double that of females. These concerns regarding increased spending align with recent figures from GamCare, which reported that the number of individuals seeking financial assistance through its Money Guidance Services doubled in 2025. Meanwhile, reported debt rose from £2.8m in 2024 to £7.2m last year, representing an average debt of £21,269 per person. Rising awareness On a more positive note, Ygam reported that 58% of students who gamble are aware of available support services, and 69% feel confident in their ability to access them. Additional data from GamStop shows that 60,000 individuals under the age of 25 are registered with the service, marking a 75% increase over the past five years. Fiona Palmer, CEO of The Gamstop Group, added: “The Annual Student Gambling Survey highlights a concerning lack of awareness regarding gambling risks and the impact on students struggling to manage their habits, though it is heartening to see greater recognition of the support that is available.” This data release coincides with the UK’s transition to a new NHS-led funding model for gambling harm treatment, supported by the Statutory Levy. However, there is growing anxiety regarding the effectiveness of this new system as charities await confirmation of government funding. The findings from Ygam and GamStop underscore the necessity of maintaining robust gambling harm treatment services to ensure that individuals of all ages can access the support they require.

The Star concludes the offload of Queen’s Wharf interests iGame

The Star concludes the offload of Queen’s Wharf interests

(AsiaGameHub) - The Star Entertainment Group has successfully concluded an agreement with its joint venture partners concerning the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane and Gold Coast resorts. Nevertheless, the Australian casino operator might receive reduced compensation for managing the Queen’s Wharf Brisbane integrated resort after changes were made to the establishment's fixed monthly operator fee. Chow Tai Fook Enterprises Limited (CTFE) and Far East Consortium International Limited (FEC) have signed binding long-term agreements with The Star, which is currently operating under new management after the completion of a A$300m strategic investment by Bally’s Corporation and Investment Holdings late last year. The first phase of the transaction permits The Star to divest its 50% equity stake in the Destination Brisbane Consortium (DBC), which encompasses the Queen’s Wharf resort. The second phase pertains to the Destination Gold Coast Consortium (DGCC) and additional Brisbane properties that are either fully or partially owned by the operator. The Star has acquired full ownership of The Star Gold Coast assets, whereas CTFE and FEC are set to assume control of the Treasury Hotel and the Charlotte Street Car Park, both situated near the Queen’s Wharf resort. Monthly fee set at $1.5m? As stipulated by the transaction documents, the operator has finalized the sale of its 50% equity interest in DBC. Consequently, the fixed monthly operator fee stipulated in the DBC casino management agreement (CMA) has been revised and finalized. Effective immediately, the DBC casino operator fee due to The Star will consist of a fixed annual sum of AUS $18m, paid monthly (A$1.5m per month), as well as a performance-based incentive fee made up of two components, both linked to EBITDAM. The DBC also retains a performance termination right, enabling it to end the CMA under specific performance-related conditions, subject to a minimum of 90 days’ written notice. Apart from these modifications, the essential terms of the transaction remain unchanged in all material aspects. The completion of the first stage, involving the divestment of the Queen’s Wharf resort, fulfills the requirements of the refinancing arrangement The Star secured with WhiteHawk Capital Partners last month. Consequently, the company’s guarantee associated with the Queen’s Wharf debt facilities has been fully released. Regarding the second phase, which involves the DGCC and other Brisbane properties held by The Star, the operator noted that efforts to finalize it are ongoing. The conditions precedent are anticipated to be met during the second half of 2026, and no later than 31 March 2027. The Star aims to ‘strengthen’ in 2026 The Star seems to be honoring its commitments to investors after recently expressing optimism for the upcoming year during its H1 FY26 results announcement in March, following a turbulent end to 2025. The Star recorded A$585m in normalised net revenue for the first half of FY26 and a net loss exceeding A$75m. The new management team has implemented changes to operational and marketing strategies, introduced customer-focused initiatives, and enacted further cost reductions. Bruce Mathieson Jnr, Group Chief Executive Officer of The Star, remarked: “We are streamlining our corporate office, and essential support functions will be handled at the property level in Sydney, Gold Coast, and Brisbane. These changes are designed to bolster our financial position and support long-term success. “We continue to drive appropriate cost-out initiatives and are exploring and implementing measures to draw customers to our venues. We are dedicated to following a transparent, practical, and sustainable path that ensures our remediation plan meets the expected standards, while fostering consistency, embedment, and demonstrable maturity throughout the group. “Our properties hold immense potential, and we are committed to transforming The Star into leading entertainment destinations.” Casino licence suspension prolonged However, the New South Wales Independent Casino Commission (NICC) has recently extended the casino licence suspension for The Star Sydney. Following a pathway-to-suitability submission received by the NICC from The Star Sydney on 12 March, it was confirmed that the operator is not yet seeking a licence determination. The suspension affecting The Star Sydney has been in effect for more than three years, after the operator was deemed unfit to hold a casino licence. This determination followed reviews commissioned by the NICC and conducted by Adam Bell SC in October 2022 and August 2024, which uncovered numerous regulatory failures. Nicolas Weeks was appointed as the manager for The Star Sydney to enable gaming operations to persist at the venue. This latest extension ensures the casino licence suspension remains active, with Weeks’ tenure now extended until 30 September 2026, unless terminated earlier.
