Perplexity has shared his plans to “Reconstruir “Teltok framed in their intention to acquire the social network of Bytedance in the United States, including the creation of a open source algorithm For the ‘feed’ for you, as well as add summons y Improve search experience through artificial intelligence functions (AI).
The technology launched a Fusion offer with Tiktok in the United States In January of this year, with the aim of promoting its AI search engine, as well as creating a new entity to combine perplexity with TikTok US and new partners, maintaining the capital of most investors in the Bytedance parent company.
Now, Perplexity has announced what his Roadmap to “rebuild” Tiktok In case of merging with the platform, in which it would implement an open source algorithm, in addition to adding simple tools driven by their response engine, which allow users to “deepen and seek the truth.”
This has been detailed by the technology company in a statement in its blog, where it has claimed to be trained to “Rebuild the Tiktok algorithm without creating a monopoly”by combining “world -class technical capabilities with the independence of small technology companies.”
As he said, this could make a difference to possible competitors or large investor consortia, who “could keep Bytedance in algorithm control,” creating a monopoly in the short videos and information sector.
In this sense, Perpleplexity has remarked that part of its plans are based on making the social network recommendation systems more transparent, to turn it into a “more neutral and reliable” platform. That is, he has proposed reconstitute the Tiktok algorithm “from scratch”, using transparency as the main engine and generating a new ‘feed’ for you open source, in the face of eliminating the user manipulation risks.
Therefore, Perplexity’s proposal would begin with the creation of these basic systems and algorithms through a infrastructure that would be developed and maintained in US data centers Under US supervision, thus guaranteeing compliance with national norms and privacy regulations.
In addition to all this, the technological one has also indicated that its advanced AI infrastructure, promoted by the ‘software of open source inference recently announced Nvidia Dynamocould climb the TikTok recommendation models up to 100 times, while offering a faster inference rate, significantly improving the standard in the Tiktok recommendation system.
Other proposals for Tiktok
Following this line, Perplexity has indicated that, like all its answers they include other as a fundamental part to “create a reliable information ecosystem”, also I would expand this function to Tiktok’s videosfacilitating users the comparison of real -time information while visualizing the content of the social network.
In fact, the company ensures that they could develop “the most powerful context system in the world”, by taking advantage of both community feedback and AI capacities to highlight reliable information. This would ensure that users had access to true information tools while navigating the ‘feed’ for you.
On the other hand, the technological one has also indicated the Improvements in search experience that could offer users, to Combine your response engine with Tiktok’s video librarywith what they could provide answers anywhere, “regardless of the environment.”
Specifically, by improving the search for Tiktok with the perplexity response engine, the company explained that it would provide complete responses and accompanied by appointments. On the other hand, by implementing Tiktok videos in the perplexity experience, the AI company responses would be enriched with the content of the social network.
Perplexity has also shared its intention to improve the informative value of the content that users publish and discover in Tiktok. To do this, he has suggested to bet on the use of metrics centered on user satisfaction and informative value, instead of only interaction.
Thus, as he said, the users could connect your perplexity and tiktok accounts, and take advantage of multiplatform signals to, for example, improve customization and offer both answers and more appropriate content to the needs of users.
Finally, the technology recalled the abilities of enriching the content, either with contextual information, as with Functions multilingualby translation and automatic annotations.
This integration between Tiktok and Perplexity “would allow users Easily move from the Tiktok displacement experience to the powerful perplexity research functionsall in a single unified feed, “said the technological one.
With all this, this purchase proposition is part of the Veto attempt by the US Congress to Tiktokdue to the approval of a law that prohibits “applications controlled by foreign adversaries”, to prevent them from having access to user data.
Thus, one of the Bytedance social network options to continue operational in the United States is its sale to another company from this country. With this, in addition to Perplexity AI, this context has led other companies such as Oracle and Microsoft to be considered as potential buyers or investors.
