China’s “other” TikTok, EU hits Google & U.S.’s robot ban | You & AI
Governments are trying to control Big Tech: The European Union has fined Google, taken action against AliExpress, and accused TikTok of failing to protect children. Meanwhile, the United States is banning many Chinese-made robots over national security concerns.
And then there’s the app millions of people use every day.
TikTok isn’t the same everywhere. In China, users get a completely different version called Douyin. With different rules, different recommendations, and strict limits for young users.
In this episode of You & AI, Ayşe Abacı speaks with NASK analyst Patrycja Krzyśpiak about why China separates the two platforms, how content moderation differs, and what researchers have discovered about information manipulation on TikTok.
