      “TikTok is currently testing a new feature that will let users request to “see less” AI generated content in their feeds, in an expansion to its AI control features which have thus far identified 1.3 billion AI generated videos posted to the platform.

      This toggle will apparently help “dial things down” for people who don’t want their feed clogged up with AI slop, though TikTok says the toggle is designed to “tailor” the range of videos in a feed “rather than removing or replacing content in feeds entirely.” Hence, it sounds like you won’t be able to opt out of seeing AI slop completely, only choose to see less of it.

      This toggle will be joined by a new “invisible watermarking” feature for TikTok’s own AI-infused editing tools and “content uploaded with C2PA Content Credentials.” TikTok already requires users who post “realistic” AI generated content to label it appropriately, in part using those C2PA Credentials which embed metadata to help identify AI generated images and videos. This is how TikTok spotted more than a billion AI vids on the app.

      However, TikTok says that “a common industry challenge is that these kinds of labels may be removed when content is reuploaded or edited elsewhere.”

      So, Join us for round 2 of: AI content spoofing vs. AI content detection!

      What should we name this show?

      “Robot Wars Evolved”

      or “The Turing Tournament of Champions”?

      Red Team, Blue Team?

      Less? What about zero? I am already so fed up with all the AI bullshit all these social platforms are throwing in my algorithm. The countless advertisements are already annoying, and now having them fill the gaps between those awful ads they show me AI slop. Great.

      My prediction for 2026? People will start reading old fashioned books again to get away from this and the fucked up news that it’s happening around the world. People will want to escape to a happy place. TikTok ain’t it.
