TikTok just quietly installed a new feature onto everyone’s accounts without telling anyone It automatically gives them permission to take your images, your voices, and plug them into AI and use them for whatever content they want to make That means they can now make make AI content that looks like you and say things that sound like you, doing stuff you would never say or do TikTok rolled out a new setting called “Allow AI to Remix Content” - It was turned on by default for existing and new videos. - This allows other users and TikTok’s AI tools to use your video clips, images, and audio to create AI-generated remixes, memes, or new content featuring your likeness and voice If you don’t want this you can opt out However, The opt-out is per video, there is no account wide toggle. You must go into each individual video’s privacy settings to turn it off This make it much more difficult and annoying to opt out every time so eventually you’ll likely just stop opting out and they can steal your likeness for their AI TikTok says this setting is mainly about letting other users remix your content with AI, not necessarily TikTok secretly training models on everything But that’s not true, because training data permissions are covered in their broader terms They are literally stealing your likeness and voice for training models
