New ride-hailing platform / Enhanced AI-powered publishing tool / Fitting rooms for the disabled / HKUST's AI medical imaging tool
On Friday's Backchat, we looked at the recent unveiling of a new regulatory framework for the ride-hailing industry, including requiring licences for ride-hailing operators.
Chief Executive John Lee earlier said that the city should no longer delay in addressing the issue despite its complexity.
We spoke to an expert and got his take on the proposal.
We then turned our attention to how artificial intelligence is transforming the ways books are published - a trend that Hong Kong is helping to set.
After the break, we listened to how one organisation is trying to make fitting rooms in Hong Kong more accessible for people with disabilities.
And finally, we spoke to an expert from the University of Science and Technology about a new medical imaging tool that can reduce patients' exposure to radiation.

QS World University Rankings / Horseshoe crab conservation
主持人：Azam Khan and Mike Rowse
On Monday's Backchat, we discussed Hong Kong's development as a global education hub.
The SAR achieved the highest rate of improvement in Asia in the latest QS World University Rankings, with the University of Hong Kong rising six places to 11th globally — the city's best-ever performance. Five Hong Kong universities now fall within the world’s top 100.
We spoke to experts about the city's achievements and how the education sector can build upon its successes.
In the second part of our programme, we heard from Ocean Park about the use of drones and artificial intelligence to study the horseshoe crab population in Hong Kong’s largest horseshoe crab nursing ground -- Ha Pak Nai in Yuen Long. We found out how the use of technology can help policymakers implement more targeted conservation measures.
