    Taxi e-payment rules / OpenAI's Pentagon deal / Gen Z emotional distress survey / Combatting rising obesity

    On this programme, we started things off with a closer look at an upcoming regulation that made the availability of electronic payments mandatory for all taxis. From April 1st, all taxi drivers in Hong Kong will be required to offer at least one QR-code-based and one non-QR-code electronic payment method.
    We then heard from our tech correspondent about OpenAI’s controversial deal with the Pentagon to use its models for US defense systems. The US military had blacklisted OpenAI’s rival Anthropic, deeming it a “security risk”. The move came after Anthropic refused to cross ethical boundaries, including using AI tools for the purpose of fully autonomous weapons without human oversight.
    After the break, we chatted with a representative from the Mental Health Association about a recent survey by the organisation which found that over 40 percent of Gen Z in the city had been affected by emotional distress.
    And lastly, we heard from a senior health official about a new government initiative that aimed to combat rising obesity rates in Hong Kong.

    On Tuesday's Backchat, we learned more about China's domestically developed AG600 "Kunlong" amphibious aircraft, which has officially entered mass production after receiving production certification from the Civil Aviation Administration last week.

    In the second segment, we stayed in aviation and spoke to an expert about the Air India crash which killed all but one person on board last week. We discussed the latest updates and learned more about the investigation process.

    After the break, we talked about the community's growing support for breastfeeding. It's been a few months since Hong Kong's first breast milk bank came into operation. We found out from experts about how it's been providing much-needed support for premature and critically-ill babies.
