TikTok mistakenly posted a link to an internal version of its new AI digital avatar tool without guardrails, letting users create videos that say just about anything.
When CNN discovered the internal tool, it let the outlet generate videos reciting Osama bin Laden’s “Letter to America,” a white supremacy slogan, and a video telling people to vote on the wrong day.
None of the videos CNN produced had a watermark disclosing that the video is AI-generated, which is something the proper version of TikTok's Symphony Digital Avatars does.
CNN didn’t post the videos it created to TikTok, but if it had, the content “would have been rejected for violating our policies.”
