- YouTube, TikTok and other platforms tighten rules to curb AI slop
TechNews roundup reports that as generative AI spreads through creative workflows, YouTube, TikTok, Substack, Pinterest, Meta, LinkedIn and Snapchat have recently adjusted rules on labeling, recommendation and monetization of AI content. The shared direction is to allow AI-assisted creation while limiting formulaic, repetitive or algorithm-gaming "AI slop." YouTube says using AI to strengthen original storytelling is not banned, but formulaic or emotionally manipulative content may lose monetization eligibility, and it continues to require disclosure of AI-generated or heavily AI-modified content; TikTok requires AI labels, adds invisible watermarks to some videos' metadata, tests detection aimed at accounts that mass-post AI slop, and lets users adjust how much AI content they see. Snapchat said Spotlight will no longer recommend or reward fully AI-generated videos, Meta is extending AI labels to AI-made ads, Pinterest and Substack offer labels and tools for readers to estimate AI use, and LinkedIn acknowledged a large volume of AI slop on its platform and said it would take limiting measures.
科技新报 · 🔥 3 - Meta brings AI-powered "Your Algorithm" to Facebook and Reels
Meta announced on October 13 that it is bringing Instagram's "Your Algorithm" feature to Facebook and Facebook Reels, letting users add and manage topics and describe in their own words what they want to see more or less of. Meta says recommendations respond in real time within the same session, and that it is using LLMs more in its ranking systems so the algorithm can understand the interests, context and intent behind natural language. Instagram launched the same feature earlier this year — first for Reels in December 2025, according to TechCrunch — and Threads has a related tool called "Dear Algo."
