TikTok's AI Boost Amid Bans, Gulf Pivot, and Viral Mashups
Tiktok BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.
TikTok has been making waves this week with a flurry of activity that shows the platform is both innovating and navigating some serious business challenges. According to SocialBee's November 5th update, the company just rolled out two major AI-powered features for creators called AI Outline and Smart Split, designed to help streamline the content creation process. The platform also introduced the ability to mention "Liked" and "Favorited" videos, along with new playback settings including options to disable HDR videos and display object tags. These are solid upgrades for the creator community, but they're happening against a backdrop of much bigger developments.
On the business front, TikTok CEO Shou Zi Chew has been making high-profile international appearances. According to reporting from a Saudi Arabia business event on November 6th, 2025, Chew has been actively cultivating relationships with Gulf States as the company faces mounting pressure in the United States. He previously appeared at major conferences in Riyadh and Dubai, cementing TikTok's expanding footprint in the Middle East. The platform has become incredibly popular there, with reports indicating that 88 percent of Saudis are active on TikTok as of 2023, and the company has been doubling down on partnerships with Saudi entities including the Saudi Tourism Authority and the Pro League soccer organization.
Domestically, TikTok's legal situation remains in a state of limbo. According to the 2025 Status Report from AtomicMail, the TikTok ban is currently paused by an executive order as of November 2025, meaning the app is functioning but operating on what observers describe as borrowed time. This uncertainty hasn't stopped the platform from pushing forward with content initiatives though. The ATP and TikTok announced the launch of the Tennis Creator Network this week, officially debuting at the 2025 Nitto ATP Finals, expanding the platform's reach into sports content creation.
Meanwhile, on the cultural front, TikTok trends continue to dominate user engagement. According to NapoleonCat's November 2025 trend report, the "What's Going On" TikTok trend featuring a mashup of Nicki Minaj's "Beez in the Trap" and 4 Non Blondes' classic hit "What's Up" is taking over users' feeds, with the dance and lip-sync challenge gaining massive traction across the platform.
