Anti-immigrant material among AI-generated content getting billions of views on TikTok

A report by AI Forensics reveals that hundreds of TikTok accounts are generating billions of views by posting AI-generated content, including anti-immigrant and sexualized material. The study identified 354 AI-focused accounts that accumulated 4.5 billion views over a month, with half of the top 10 most active accounts focusing on content related to the female body. TikTok has responded by stating that the claims are unsubstantiated and that they are working to remove harmful AI-generated content, block bot accounts, and improve AI labeling. However, the researchers argue that better labeling and possibly segregating AI-generated content from human-created posts is necessary to address the issue.
