Studies highlight alarmingly high rates of AI use among young people, necessitating urgent protective measures. The Trevor Project's upcoming research reveals that 53% of LGBTQ+ youth use AI platforms, with nearly half seeking friendship or conversation and 40% using AI for mental health support. Significantly, 29% received crisis hotline information via AI, and a third of those accessed a hotline as a result. LGBTQ+ youth, who face higher suicide attempt rates and often seek online support, are particularly drawn to AI, especially youth of color (49% compared to 20% of white youth). The LGBTQ+ youth's reliance on AI as a "lifeline" compels organizations like The Trevor Project to ensure AI's safety. Despite personal skepticism about AI, the mission to protect vulnerable youth demands immediate action. AI systems must honor humanity, protect dignity, and align strictly with evidence-based suicide prevention standards, avoiding deceptive anthropomorphism. Chatbots must act as seamless bridges to human support and offer culturally competent care tailored to diverse needs. Preventing bias requires centering LGBTQ+ youth in AI design, testing, and evaluation, insisting on protective guardrails and algorithmic justice. This demands multidisciplinary collaboration among experts, policymakers, and developers to expand evidence, establish care standards, and ensure transparent dialogue while protecting youth privacy. The CEO commits to supporting vulnerable young people using emerging technologies, recognizing the internet's vital role for marginalized individuals.
