TikTok is testing an opt-in tool designed to scan for AI-generated likenesses, allowing creators to report such instances to the company. This testing phase involves a select group of creators in the United States, according to TikTok US spokesperson Zachary Kizer. The tool requires creators to verify their identity through a real-time selfie scan and an ID check via a company called Jumio. Kizer noted that TikTok does not retain ID documents or facial information. YouTube has been developing a similar tool, which is now available to all adult users.
