    This article does not include screenshots of nor links to any of the AI-generated content in question. It would be very helpful for my understanding to be able to see this content. It feels like an intentional omission.

      I can understand being curious, I’m curious too.

      But it’s hard to imagine any circumstance that would make TikTok support’s responses seem reasonable in context. They’re claiming a right to remix your stuff (where “you” are a paying customer mind you) without your knowledge or consent, and then to disseminate that remix at their discretion.

      The specifics of how they altered this ad are almost incidental by comparison.
