Reports revealed that the famous Chinese video application “Tik Tok” began selling its artificial intelligence technology to those who wish to buy it.
ByteDance, the founder of the “Tik Tok” application, quietly launched the “Byte Plus” brand, which is concerned with the sale of “Tik Tok” technology, including the recommendation algorithm, and it also enables customers to purchase computer technology, real-time effects and machine translations, along with features Others, according to a report in the British newspaper “Financial Times”.
The Singapore-based Bate Plus brand debuted in June, although it has a presence in Hong Kong and London, and BateDance is looking to register it in America.
It is noteworthy that there are already at least a few customers using the “Byte Plus” code, such as the American fashion app “Goat”, as well as the Indonesian shopping company “Chilibeli” and the travel site “WeGo”.
ByteDance has not commented on the Financial Times report about its plans for BytePlus.
Although the move will remove the character of its “Tik Tok” application, it may help ByteDance to compete with other large companies that sell its technology to companies behind the scenes, such as “Microsoft” and “Amazon”. It will surely lead to more money flowing to her.
