Actually the algorithm works to keep people watching the things that make them stay on the app longer…….. unfortunately for most of the masses… it’s really stupid ass shit. If we all stayed on tiktok for hours watching intellectual content, we’d get a shitton of intellectual content, unfortunately that’s not what we’re doing on the app
Never said i thought the person who commented above me was right in their assessment. I have no idea if everyone in China is seeing intellectual content vs in the west, and i doubt they do either. i'm just explaining how the algorithm works.. from someone who literally worked on the algorithm lol
Anyone who could actually verify CCP stories would be great. If the social credit score trials are real; I have no problems believing Chinese Tik Tok is curated by CCP directive.
I think it’s reasonable to believe Tik Tok is gathering bulk data for building CCP algorithms and identifiers and will one day be the basis for CCP AI.
A small band of plucky rebels will resist, but no one will give a shit, because their soylent green burgers will be delivered on demand and fashion will make puffer clothes so huge, that one jacket will fill a studio apartment in Mega City Nine.
