Why TikTok Banned This Video On AI Propaganda

AI-generated deep fake images of former U.S. President Donald Trump being arrested spread fast across social media this week. Whether you think they were convincing or not, the era of generative AI challenging reality is officially here. And how to prevent this technology from being used to spread misinformation is something social platforms are figuring out on the fly. For example, TikTok just announced new rules for AI-generated content. As if to underscore the challenge for platforms in making these calls, TikTok removed a shorter version of this video, saying it violated community guidelines. The irony is that our content was flagged for highlighting the dangers of AI and misinformation.
What does all this mean for the future of truth?
