Summary
Instagram’s new AI safety feature in Canada now alerts parents if their teen shows signs of crisis during chats with Meta AI, expanding beyond previous helpline redirects. Live in four countries, it marks a step forward in digital youth protection — though experts warn it’s not foolproof, with concerns over false alarms and bypass tactics.
