Meta Platforms is expanding its AI-based age estimation technology globally to include millions of teenagers on Instagram, despite them indicating they are adults. This move comes amid ongoing lawsuits alleging harm to young users. Teen accounts on Instagram, Facebook, and Messenger will have integrated protections limiting contact and content visibility. Parents in the U.S. will receive notifications about these protections. Meta is also using age signals from Apple in Australia and plans to implement similar technology on Threads. The company faces multiple lawsuits regarding the impact of its platforms on adolescents, including a recent settlement of up to $18 billion with U.S. states.
