Perplexity AI is a company that develops AI-powered data search tools and has shown interest in acquiring TikTok’s business in the United States since January. They have outlined their management approach for TikTok, should they become the actual owners, expecting this offer to be the most compelling.
According to Perplexity, the first step is to develop a new TikTok algorithm in the U.S. If the current algorithm continues to be used, it will still be part of ByteDance. This new algorithm is transparent, revealing details that would not be possible if TikTok falls into the hands of other capital groups.
Additionally, Perplexity explains the approach of building an AI infrastructure to support the processing of the new TikTok, utilizing Community Notes to validate content credibility, and importantly, integrating Perplexity’s data search system into searching for videos on TikTok.
Previously, Donald Trump revealed that there are four groups interested in buying TikTok. The deadline, after Trump postponed the enforcement of selling or banning TikTok, is set for April 5th, which is quickly approaching.
