Opinion | In Hong Kong and beyond, employers need to rethin…
For decades, the rules of career success seemed straightforward. Work hard, impress your boss, get promoted and earn more. A bigger title was proof of progress, while turning down a promotion was often seen as a lack of ambition. But a younger generation is beginning to question this formula. What if getting promoted makes your working life worse? A growing trend in Western workplaces, known as “job dropping”, describes employees voluntarily stepping away from management positions, declining...

AI工具潛藏醫療隱私危機 美醫療單位員工違規上傳病患資料
圖/本報資料庫商傳媒|葉安庭/綜合外電報導近期,美國多起事件凸顯了人工智慧(AI)工具在醫療領域應用時,對病患隱私造成的潛在威脅。數家醫療機構的員工在未經授權的情況下,將病患的受保護健康資訊(PHI)上傳至AI與機器學習工具,引發各界對數據安全的擔憂。 根據《The HIPAA Journal》報導,位於紐約的 Weill Cornell Medicine 於 2026 年 9 月 6 日發現,在同年 6 月 10 日至 20 日之間,部分病患的受保護健康資訊被員工違規輸入至AI與機器學習工具。這項行為違反了該機構的內部政策。不過,此次上傳的資料並未包含病患姓名、聯絡方式、社會安全碼或財務資訊,主要限於病歷號碼、放射科檢查編號、檢查日期與時間、設施名稱、醫療服務提供者姓名,以及與放射學檢查相關的臨床資訊,其中可能涵蓋診斷、治療計畫、手術史和用藥資訊。Weill Cornell Medicine 表示,目前尚未發現病患資料遭到濫用,已暫停相關研究活動並要求刪除數據,同時也對相關人員加強了AI工具使用與病患資訊保護的教育訓練。 同時,華盛頓特區的 Washington Department of Social and Health Services 營運的兩家心理健康機構也發生類似事件。Lake Burien Transitional Care Facility 的一名員工曾使用個人 ChatGPT 帳號,為客戶的病例摘要草稿,過程中將病患的個人健康資訊上傳。調查發現,該員工曾多次進行此類違規操作,上傳的病例摘要包含病患姓名、診斷結果和用藥等敏感資訊。華盛頓州政府已向 Lake Burien Transitional Care Facility 受影響的 12 個病患家庭發出書面通知。此外,Western State Hospital 也有 4 名病患受此類事件影響。兩家機構已指示相關員工在刪除帳戶前,先刪除所有上傳至 ChatGPT 的內容。 這些事件凸顯了醫療產業在擁抱AI技術時面臨的嚴峻挑戰。根據《The HIPAA Journal》的調查數據,有高達 40% 的醫院員工表示曾發現同事使用未經授權的AI工具,更有 20% 的員工坦承自己曾使用過。美國的《健康保險流通與責任法案》(HIPAA),旨在保護病患個人健康資訊的隱私,而未經授權將資料上傳至第三方AI平台,無疑增加了資料外洩與濫用的風險。 《Pharmaceutical Technology》也指出,許多AI輔助的決策並沒有單一的正確答案,AI的傾向可能在無人察覺錯誤的情況下決定結果。這表明單純審查AI產出的結果並不足以作為唯一的控制措施,對於使用AI工具的醫療專業人員,應有一套更嚴格的資格認定與訓練機制,以確保他們能辨識AI可能帶來的偏誤或資訊遺漏。在AI技術日益普及的今日,如何平衡技術創新與病患隱私保護,已成為全球醫療體系亟需解決的重要課題。

China plans to boost yuan use in shipping risk-pricing, red…
China has unveiled a road map to strengthen its maritime insurance industry and expand the use of the yuan in shipping-related transactions, as Beijing seeks to reduce its reliance on Western-dominated insurance networks amid growing geopolitical tensions. The guidelines, jointly issued by seven government agencies on Friday, aim to strengthen domestic underwriting and risk-pricing capabilities while expanding insurance protection for China’s key imports and exports. The push comes as Western...

Recent mainland Chinese naval deployments in the western Pacific and South China Sea have raised questions over whether Beijing is rehearsing operations to stop US and allied forces from intervening in a Taiwan conflict, according to analysts. Beijing has not announced any large-scale drill in relation to recent People’s Liberation Army (PLA) naval activities. But a November 6 assessment by US-based think tank the Institute for the Study of War (ISW) said the PLA could be conducting a major...

The Communist Party’s call for “self-revolution” may be rooted in the pursuit of internal discipline, but its implications extend well beyond China. As the global order faces mounting challenges, Beijing’s emphasis on internal renewal raises a fundamental question: can countries hope to contribute to global stability without first putting their own houses in order? China’s fifth plenum placed considerable emphasis on combating corruption. Beijing has relentlessly pursued its campaign against...

Dark circles, dull skin? ‘Ferritin face’ and TCM’s take on…
If you have dull skin, dark circles under your eyes or brittle nails, social media algorithms may be quick to diagnose you with “ferritin face”. Though not a formal medical diagnosis, the buzzy term has emerged as the latest viral beauty-and-wellness trend describing traits supposedly caused by low ferritin – the cellular protein that stores iron in the body. While iron deficiency anaemia frequently shows up with these visible symptoms, Western medical doctors caution that a complex metabolic...

Moon Chen stared down at her textbook, struggling to make sense of the words on the page. The 15-year-old felt a suffocating weight press into her chest, while her heart fluttered erratically. Chen’s mother rushed her to a cardiologist – only to be told that she should see a psychiatrist instead. Chen, now in higher secondary school in the southwestern Chinese city of Chongqing, vividly recalls the period before she was diagnosed with depression and anxiety. At the time, she did not know that...

美各州電網可靠度評比出爐 伊利諾州奪冠德州居中段
圖/本報資料庫商傳媒|責任編輯/綜合外電報導電力電網是現代社會日常運作不可或缺的基礎設施。近日,多家美國機構針對各州電網的可靠度進行評比,結果顯示部分州的表現突出,而德州(Texas)的電網狀況則未能名列前茅。 根據《SlashGear》報導,美國本土 48 州的電網主要分為三大互聯系統:東部互聯系統(Eastern Interconnection)、西部互聯系統(Western Interconnection),以及獨立運作的得克薩斯州電力可靠性委員會(ERCOT)電網。其中,東部與西部系統皆與加拿大電網相連,以增加穩定性。而德州則獨樹一幟,擁有獨立的電網(儘管未涵蓋全州),這使得其在管理上與其他州有所不同。電網可靠度評估的關鍵指標包括停電持續時間、停電頻率以及現代化程度等。 各州電網表現兩樣情 根據《美國新聞與世界報導》(U.S. News & World Report)的排名,伊利諾州(Illinois)在電網可靠度方面表現最佳,南達科他州(South Dakota)、內華達州(Nevada)與德拉瓦州(Delaware)也名列前五。另一家公司 EcoFlow 則將 Rhode Island 列為最可靠的州,伊利諾州次之。 就停電頻率而言,根據 Ooma 在 2025 年發布、依據 U.S. Energy Administration 歷史數據分析的報告,猶他州(Utah)每位用戶每年經歷的停電次數最少,其次是威斯康辛州(Wisconsin)和內布拉斯加州(Nebraska)。然而,緬因州(Maine)、阿拉斯加州(Alaska)和路易斯安那州(Louisiana)則是停電次數最多的州。 在停電時間長度方面,德州在停電時間最長的州中排名第六。路易斯安那州、密西西比州(Mississippi)和西維吉尼亞州(West Virginia)則屬於停電時間較長的地區。整體而言,德州在《美國新聞與世界報導》的電網可靠度排名中處於中段班,並未進入 Ooma 停電次數最多的前十名名單。然而,緬因州、佛蒙特州(Vermont)和西維吉尼亞州則在《美國新聞與世界報導》的可靠度排名中墊底。 值得注意的是,德州電網在 2021 年 2 月曾遭遇嚴峻考驗,一場持續數日的停電導致超過 200 人死亡,凸顯電網韌性對民生安全的關鍵影響。這些跨州的電網評比結果,不僅反映了各州在基礎建設與法規政策上的差異,也提醒各國在發展能源基礎建設時,應持續關注電網韌性與可靠度,確保民生與經濟運作不受影響。

Videos showing a glowing Guanyin, or Goddess of Mercy, carried by a drone and another similar device disguised as a crane have attracted significant attention on Chinese social media. Together, the two devices recreate the traditional funeral send-off in which the deceased is said to “ascend to heaven.” In China, a common euphemism for someone who has died is that they have “ridden a crane to the Western Paradise,” or simply “gone west.” In the viral clips, released in early November, dozens of...

The number of European and American buyers attending China’s largest trade fair rose sharply this autumn, though exporters on the floor said economic headwinds in the West continued to act as a drag on deal making.

After artist Oscar Chan Yik-long left Hong Kong for Europe – first to Paris, then Helsinki – in 2019, he did not return to the city for many years. Widely considered one of Hong Kong’s most promising young talents, Chan even missed his 2021 solo exhibition – a display of the gothic, monochrome works he is best known for – at Gallery Exit in Aberdeen, Hong Kong, because he could not bring himself to board a long-haul flight. What kept him away was fear. At the time, Chan was suffering from severe...


SanDisk股價重挫逾六成 AI需求推升獲利前景仍樂觀
商傳媒|方承業/綜合外電報導記憶體晶片製造商 SanDisk 近期股價大幅下挫,週五盤中報價為每股 835 美元,相較其在 2026 年 6 月 25 日創下的歷史高點 2,335 美元,跌幅已超過六成。儘管股價表現疲弱,該公司過去兩年財報數據亮眼,尤其受惠於人工智慧(AI)市場對高密度企業級固態硬碟(SSD)的強勁需求。 根據《Yahoo Finance》報導,SanDisk 在 2025 年 2 月自威騰電子(Western Digital)拆分獨立上市後,初始股價為每股 36 美元。該公司在 2025 會計年度(截至 2025 年 7 月)營收成長 10%,調整後毛利率從 14.8% 躍升至 30.3%,並恢復獲利。到了 2026 會計年度,其營收更飆升 176%,調整後毛利率翻倍至 71.6%,調整後每股盈餘(EPS,即公司每一股賺多少錢)更暴增 2,271%。 分析師預期,SanDisk 在 2027 會計年度的營收將成長 145%,調整後每股盈餘預計成長 220%。然而,對於 2028 及 2029 會計年度,分析師對其營收成長預期則顯著放緩,分別僅為 22% 及不到 1%。目前 SanDisk 的股價僅為今年調整後每股盈餘的不到四倍,這顯示市場將其視為週期性晶片製造商,而非高成長的 AI 概念股。此一估值差異,與其驚人的成長數據形成強烈對比。 報導指出,AI 市場潛在的挑戰,例如暫停新建資料中心的提案,可能對產業發展構成影響。儘管如此,SanDisk 仍被一些投資人視為具潛力的投資標的,甚至有媒體報導稱,SanDisk 收到類似輝達(Nvidia)在 2009 年時曾出現的「高度確信(Total Conviction)」買入訊號,認為其目前股價遭到低估。 對於半導體產業的投資者而言,SanDisk 的股價走勢與其基本面表現之間的巨大落差,提供了一個值得關注的案例。在台灣半導體類股持續受到市場矚目的同時,投資人可將 SanDisk 的估值作為參考,審慎評估其未來潛力與風險。 【提醒您】 投資有賺有賠,本文僅供參考,不構成投資建議
