TikTok wants creators to label AI-generated content

TikTok wants creators to label their content if it is AI-generated. The company is helping out streamers ease the process by adding a simple toggle that will label the content if it was generated by artificial intelligence.
The new label feature allows artists to declare whether their postings contain AI-generated material more easily. When submitting a video, a toggle is labeled "AI-generated content" under "more options." TikTok notes under the toggle that the label will assist in avoiding "content removal" and that the platform may remove unlabeled material.
TikTok has already said that deepfake videos will be prohibited from the platform in 2020, as stated in their Community Guidelines. The app defines deepfakes as "Digital Forgeries (Synthetic Media or Manipulated Media) that deceive users by distorting the truth of events and cause significant harm to the subject of the video, other people, or society." A viral deepfake of Joe Rogan was pulled down in February 2023.

TikTok has added a new toggle to make the labeling process easier
TikTok is making it easier for producers on the site to identify AI-generated videos. The business has implemented a new setting that allows producers to identify AI-generated films. This label will show next to the title of the video and will assist viewers in identifying AI-generated material.
TikTok is introducing an AI-generated content label in response to worries about the growth of deepfakes on the site. Deepfakes are videos edited to look like someone spoke or did something they never said or did. TikTok had already prohibited deepfake films from being uploaded to the service, but this new label will aid in discouraging artists from posting deepfakes without declaring them.
How to turn off TikTok spam invites
The new label is also intended to help TikTok viewers be more selective about the content they watch. Viewers will be able to quickly recognize AI-generated material with the label and make educated judgments about whether or not to believe it.

Uhh, this has already been possible – I am not sure how but remember my brother telling me about it. I’m not a whatsapp user so not sure of the specifics, but something about sending the image as a file and somehow bypassing the default compression settings that are applied to inbound photos.
He has also used this to share movies to whatsapp groups, and files 1Gb+.
Like I said, I never used whatsapp, but I know 100% this isn’t a “brand new feature”, my brother literally showed me him doing it, like… 5 months ago?
Martin, what happened to those: 12 Comments (https://www.ghacks.net/chatgpt-gets-schooled-by-princeton-university/#comments). Is there a specific justifiable reason why they were deleted?
Hmm, it looks like the gHacks website database is faulty, and not populating threads with their relevant cosponsoring posts.
The page on ghacks this is on represents the best of why it has become so worthless, fill of click-bait junk that it’s about to be deleted from my ‘daily reads’.
It’s really like “Press Release as re-written by some d*ck for clicks…poorly.” And the subjects are laughable. Can’t wait for “How to search for files on Windows”.
> The page on ghacks this is on represents the best of why it has become so worthless, fill of click-bait junk…
Sadly, I have to agree.
Only Martin and Ashwin are worth subscribing to.
Especially Emre Çitak and Shaun are the worst ones.
If ghacks.net intended “Clickbait”, it would mark the end of Ghacks Technology News.
Ghacks doesn’t need crappy clickbaits. Clearly separate articles from newer authors (perhaps AIs and external sales person or external advertising man) as just “Advertisements”!
We, the subscribers of Ghacks, urge Martin to make a decision.
because nevermore wants to “monetize” on every aspect of human life…
“Threads” is like the Walmart of Social Media.
How hard can it be to clone a twitter version of that as well? They’re slow.
Yes, why not mention how large the HD files can be?
Why, not mention what version of WhatsApp is needed?
These omissions make the article feel so bare. If not complete.
Sorry posted on the wrong page.
such a long article for such a simple matter. Worthless article ! waste of time
I already do this by attaching them via the ‘Document’ option.
I don’t know what’s going on here at Ghacks but it’s obvious that something is broken, comments are being mixed whatever the article, I am unable to find some of my later posts neither. :S
Quoting the article,
“As users gain popularity, the value of their tokens may increase, allowing investors to reap rewards.”
Besides, beyond the thrill and privacy risks or not, the point is to know how you gain popularity, be it on social sites as everywhere in life. Is it by being authentic, by remaining faithful to ourselves or is it to have this particular skill which is to understand what a majority likes, just like politicians, those who’d deny to the maximum extent compatible with their ideological partnership, in order to grab as many of the voters they can?
I see the very concept of this Friend.tech as unhealthy, propagating what is already an increasing flaw : the quest for fame. I won’t be the only one to count himself out, definitely.
@John G. is right : my comment was posted on [https://www.ghacks.net/2023/08/23/what-is-friend-tech/] and it appears there but as well here at [https://www.ghacks.net/2023/07/08/how-to-follow-everyone-on-threads/]
This has been lasting for several days. Fix it or at least provide some explanations if you don’t mind.

Firefox did this long before Safari.
Basically they’ll do anything except fair royalties.
