The "Measures for Identifying AI-Generated Content," announced in March this year by the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) and other departments, officially came into effect on September 1st. These measures require social media platforms in China to add both explicit and implicit labels to AI-generated content to facilitate identification. Explicit labels are clearly identifiable prompts for users, such as text tags or voice prompts, while implicit labels are attached to the content's metadata for system tracking and identification. These new regulations apply to major social media platforms such as Weibo, Xiaohongshu, Bilibili, and Douyin. Currently, each platform handles unlabeled AI-generated content differently, including warnings, tagging, traffic restrictions, removal, and even account suspension. Douyin has the strictest regulations, with violators potentially facing bans on uploading and publishing videos, removal of followers, or cancellation of monetization privileges. However, due to the limitations of current automatic identification technology, some unlabeled AI content still exists on the platforms, and misinformation can still spread widely online. However, market analysts believe that as the technology matures and users' ability to identify AI-generated content improves, the transparency and regulatory effectiveness of AI-generated content will gradually increase.

While there were previous rumors that ByteDance was considering selling TikTok's business to Elon Musk to keep it operating in the US, TikTok has clarified this, and the January 19th deadline for the ban on TikTok due to its inability to be sold to a US company is fast approaching. The Information website has obtained information indicating that TikTok may choose to shut down its US service on the evening of January 19th, allowing users to download and retain their uploaded content. At that time, US users accessing TikTok through the website or app may only see a message explaining the legal reason for the US ban, and will be able to choose to download and retain their uploaded content. However, to use the TikTok service, they will have to find a way to access versions available in other countries or regions. It is expected that the TikTok app will no longer be available for download on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store in the US, and existing downloads will not receive updates. Oracle, which hosts TikTok's uploaded data, will also terminate its network services, effectively shutting down TikTok's US service. However, TikTok's offices in the United States will not be closed, and staff will continue to operate as usual. However, some adjustments to their operations are expected, such as continued content collaborations with some influencers, though the reach of that content may shift outside the US. Currently, TikTok has approximately 170 million users in the US. With the impending ban in the US, many have switched to REDnote, another popular Chinese app, and expressed their discontent through the hashtag #tiktokrefugee.
