(Reuters) -Marketing platform AppLovin said on Thursday it has submitted a bid for TikTok assets outside of China, ahead of the April 5 deadline set by the U.S. President Donald Trump to find a non-Chinese buyer for the short video app used by 170 million Americans.
TikTok creator ByteDance has an AI image generation model called InfiniteYou that lets you create fake photos of yourself.
Although Zhang has handed over corporate roles to Liang Rubo, he is widely seen as the real decision maker at the tech giant.
TikTok temporarily went dark for its 170 million American users but was reinstalled “as a result of President Trump’s efforts,” according to the app. Now it’s facing another possible ban.
YouTube announced new video creation tools for short videos ahead of a pending deadline for TikTok owner ByteDance to sell it or be banned from the United States.
President Donald Trump plans to announce later on Wednesday his plan for a new company called TikTok America, part of his effortsto broker a deal to keep TikTok alive in the U.S., according to a person close to the discussions.
