Today, TikTok is among the most widely used platforms globally. TikTok's utilization of AI is closely linked to its success.

The results show that TikTok is not entirely transparent about the algorithm that governs the "for you" section but acknowledges the use of generative AI in content generation, in collaboration with other partner tools such as CapCut.
