    Ten Outstanding Young Persons 2026 / AI literacy in secondary students / How are businesses adapting to AI risks?

    On this programme, we speak to the chief judge of this year's Ten Outstanding Young Persons Selection to find out what common traits were shared among the nine awardees and how they empower and inspire young people. We also chat with one of the winners to hear first-hand what the award means to him.
    After the break, we look into a survey that found secondary school students showing confidence in the ethics and digital tools of artificial intelligence, but fall short when it comes to creative application. What exactly does this tell us?
    And to wrap up the show, we learn how companies in the United States are adapting to AI risk. It comes amid growing calls for safeguards, as US President Donald Trump pushes for the tech industry to regulate itself through voluntary agreements.

    Epstein files release / First wheelchair user traveled to space / Protections against "super flu"

    Presenters:Azam Khan and Mike Rowse

    On Monday's Backchat, we started by speaking to experts about the latest Epstein Files. Mandated by a new law, the US Department of Justice is steadily releasing declassified documents linked to the deceased financier and paedophile.
    However, both Democratic and Republican lawmakers were quick to point out that many names and pages remain redacted or blacked out. US President Donald Trump's name, meanwhile, has appeared more in the latest tranche of files. How much of a political danger is Mr Trump in?

    After the break, we spoke to a top Hong Kong astro-physicist regarding Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin launching the first wheelchair user into space. He also shared with us the most exciting space developments to look forward to in 2026!
    And lastly, we heared more from an infectious diseases expert, after the emergence of a “super flu” gripped headlines worldwide. Local health officials are once again reminding residents to get vaccinated.

    9:05am-9:30am: Epstein files release

    Speakers:

    Jeffrey Swartz, Distinguished Professor Emeritus at the Cooley Law School and former Miami Judge

    Robin Smith, Chair of Democrats Abroad in Hong Kong

    9:32am-9:48am: First wheelchair user traveled to space

    Speaker:

    9:48am-10:00am: Protections against "super flu"
