TikTok owner concedes company was slow on AI innovation, vows to catch up
-
TikTok's owner said the company was not "sensitive enough" to AI and missed the boat on innovations like GPT.
-
The owner said TikTok's rapid expansion in recent years hindered its ability to innovate.
-
He said other companies built out their AI capabilities between 2018-2021 while TikTok was slow to act.
-
However, TikTok did recently launch its own AI platform similar to OpenAI's GPT chatbots.

The owner may be using tough rhetoric to push TikTok's 110,000 employees to work harder on AI innovations.
