However, as students progress through high school, some may still experience feelings of depression or loneliness due to the pressures of academics, social media, trauma, and bullying. A number of factors contribute to depression in teenagers, so pinpointing school as the root of teenage depression is not a fair statement. Yes, the school does facilitate many of the scenarios that might contribute to symptoms of depression, but teens also experience notable stress outside of school. Stress is not the same as depression. However, you may experience stress and never experience depression.

Protecting privacy should be a colossal priority, with clear guidelines and regulations in place to protect individuals' personal information from misuse or unauthorized access.

The impact of AI on employment is an issue that cannot be ignored. The activity of doing of tasks traditionally performed by humans has the potential to displace workers across various industries. While some contradict that AI will create new jobs to replace the old, the transition may not be smooth or evenly distributed.

In our pursuit of progress, it is crucial to have a balance between embracing AI's potential and addressing its challenges. Policymakers should prioritize the develop-
