Why's our monitor labelling this an incident or hazard?
TikTok's platform uses AI algorithms to recommend content and manage interactions such as video replies and live connections. These AI systems have been misused by 'black market influencers' to promote violence, illegal activities, and counterfeit sales, which have led to realized harms including fraud, tax evasion, and consumer rights violations. The direct link between the AI system's use and the criminal harms fulfills the criteria for an AI Incident. The government's legal actions and fines further confirm the materialization of harm caused or facilitated by the AI system.[AI generated]
