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.
