Was Facebook sued for teen suicide? Did it lose or at least settled?

Facebook is not the same as ai chat. Facebook influence on mental health is negative and visible in research. The jury is still out on AI but it might as well turn out it has huge net positive effect on well being.



Net negative or net positive doesn't really matter. If there are aspects of it that are causing children to kill themselves then we should be able to discuss that without people rolling their eyes and saying "yeah yeah think of the children."

We can have the benefits while also trying to limit the harms.
