A new study published in Information Systems Research finds that certain short-form videos on major platforms can trigger suicidal thoughts among vulnerable viewers and that a newly developed AI model can flag these high-risk videos before they spread. The research delivers one of the first data-driven, medically informed tools for detecting suicide-related harms in real time, giving platforms a clearer early-warning signal at a moment when youth mental-health concerns are rising and scrutiny of platform safety is intensifying.
