In the 2026-06-27 snapshot TikTok may auto-apply an 'AI-generated' label when TikTok AI effects are used or uploaded content carries C2PA Content Credentials, and creators cannot remove an auto label; the live page was not readable. A later curator read of TikTok's Community Guidelines (Integrity and Authenticity, effective 24 September 2026, read 23 October 2026) says TikTok requires creators to label AI-generated or significantly edited content that shows realistic-looking scenes or people, and that unlabeled content may be removed, restricted or labeled by TikTok.
