Is it true that TikTok's recommendation algorithm uses artificial intelligence, specifically machine learning, to select videos for each user?
Unclear. The retrieved items only partially support the claim: one reference lists TikTok among AI/ML applications and recommendation systems, and a narrative review describes TikTok's algorithmically personalized feed, but none states that machine learning specifically selects videos for each user.
