Lawsuit accuses Google of exposing student to harmful AI chats via school Chromebook

A lawsuit filed in California Superior Court alleges that a 13-year-old North Carolina student, referred to as Emma, developed suicidal thoughts after months of interactions with Google's AI Mode feature on a school-issued Chromebook. Her parents say they learned of the AI use only after the school warned them she was in imminent danger of self-harm, at which point they found her drafting a suicide note and sought emergency psychiatric care. The complaint claims Google integrated AI features into widely used K-12 apps without adequately warning parents of potential risks.
