While this might seem counterintuitive given that fewer students reported high stress levels compared to last year, it highlights a more complex story about the anxieties gripping Hong Kong's youth.
The AI Panic Artificial intelligence has become a major worry for DSE candidates due in part to warnings from experts and industry leaders about potential job displacement caused by automation.
