Meta Adds Parental Alerts for AI Chats

Meta is rolling out new safety features for its AI chatbot, allowing parents to receive notifications if their teen discusses self-harm or suicide. Available in the US, Canada, UK, and Australia, the system sends alerts via text, email, or in-app notifications without sharing the specific message content.

Meta uses an AI system to identify these conversations, with all initial alerts undergoing a manual review process to ensure accuracy.
