Love tiktok or not, gotta give it to the CEO for handling Congress with such patience, professionalism and grace.
Expected!! Do you think he would be yelling and cussing them out?
100%
Just a fresh, western friendly face, masking the Chinese state.
TikTok's Project Texas is a joke. Wherever is the database located, If we use CCP's software to access our data, we are at risk. Reviewing source code from China is also impossible because understanding someone else source code is 10 times harder than writing new source code. Nobody can do or pay for that. The data that other social media platforms sold have been filtered and modified so they are safe but TikTok is not.
@@Immortal-Daiki according to some random person on the internet 😂

he really is a really likable CEO, not avoiding questions, and explaining everything with simple examples.
SMALL EYES TIKTOK CEO ADDICTION!
He clearly deflected many questions and had a very obvious agenda. How did you miss any of that? The whole 40 minutes
@@HevaNaisdey I found out that as well. We chinese call it Tai Chi. He's avoiding by answering different questions or answer.

@@HevaNaisdey The data is supervised by Americans, the code is transparent, and the data is kept locally in the United States. He answered. Other American social media didn't do that. What else do you need him to do?
Anderson was asking only gotcha questions! Shou Chew was brilliant at addressing those gotcha questions with wisdom
The elegance of the Confucian scholar，big Love without fear
This is so, so good! This is an excellent example of a CEO. He's articulate, straight to the point, clear, and knows his company thoroughly in and out
He also cares about his customers, finally a great CEO who definitely deserves his spot

WOO. He is so talented and intelligent. Truly born to be a Good Leader.
TikTok = how to create more negative Algorithm to give the youths outside China more bad influence so that they can bring more harm to themselves.
Intrigued by TikTok’s focus on content over connections. I’ve been using boost app social to enhance my TikTok posts, and it’s working wonders for engagement. It's like what Shou Chew said about creativity. Awesome vid, btw!
Oh snap, I use that app too! It's been a lifesaver for brainstorming content ideas. The story templates? Absolute gold!
What does this app do?
this person is really in the most important position for this important app, and he is able to make it greater.
He evades certain questions but he does it with such intelligence that most people misses it.
The data is overseen by Americans and the code is transparent. He answered. Other American social media didn't do that.
You avoided specifying which but I am assuming that you meant when Chris Anderson asks if he can guarantee that no foreign government can use tiktok to rig the political conversation. First, let's be real, American politics is already rigged by the capitalists, the corporates. Second, no sane, realistic, and humble person can ever guarantee they can stop bad actors. Which is why there is gun violence and other crimes. No government can guarantee it, much less a private entity. Third, the protections put in place by tiktok far exceeds anything that American big tech has tried to do or laws that American lawmakers have even come close to putting in place.
He meant none is perfect.
thats why he is paid almost $14million a year.
very media trained...he's an excellent talker
As a TikTok user for a while now, everything he said about them inserting tool to get people off the app and in line with guidelines is true. I’ve gotten several “are you still on here?” videos telling me to get off after a binge. They also put in warnings for potentially inaccurate or biased videos. Hearing about the parental controls is reassuring as well. CEO is well spoken, rational, very smart, and seems to understand that keeping the platform healthy (in all ways) for its users is the best way towards continued growth. Also, there’s only so much they can do when it comes to some of the issues with kids: parents have to have some responsibility as well. Great talk. I just gained more respect for TikTok.
I didn't know about these. Thanks for sharing
"as a tiktoker user" wow, you are so special, your opinion is valid for sure, hence very few people have an account there? lmao
my question is that while tiktok serves its purpose, did they realize the unintended consequences and how so they balance that? for example people have died from tictok changes and people have committed suicide. these are not outliers and should be taken seriously. what are the measures that tiktok has taken to prevent the tragedies. i mean effective measures. after so many years of the existence of tiktok, tragedies still happen. i haven’t mentioned all the tragedies by the way. i know that good things can happen too but remember that when it comes to life, one is enough to make a statistical significance
@@oskarolejnik6397 ?? she only shared her experience. you are so rude.
TikTok = how to create more negative Algorithm to give the youths outside China more bad influence so that they can bring more harm to themselves.
Mr Show showed vey clear point and answered all of challenge questions. His logic is very straightforward and structured.
Maybe you didn't hear his English answers. He did not answer many of Chris Anderson's clear questions, to the point Chris had to repeatedly ask again some questions. It was obvious to people in the free world that Mr. Chew is a charlatan. He's probably very good for his company, but very dangerous for individuals & societies. Maybe no different than Mr. Zuckerberg???
He seems like a great CEO. Thanks for this amazing talk. So inspirational.
I admire Shout’s confidence greatly
This is a really, really, good talk. I'm really impressed with how Chris Anderson able to ask the right questions, direct the talk, while still having a genuine conversation at the same time. Thanks for this TED!
Yes I think so.I get a lot of general knowledge from video.
Tiktok app was the for the Convention behavioral of the people inside to house and not to be crazy
well I just found most of the questions asked in the talk quite irritative and misleading. The only reason why the conservation could be kept flowing is that the CEO has shown a massive grace and tolerance to these questions and Tiktok has done everything right to make their platform not becoming the subject of those misleading questions and criticisms
I am afraid a lot of questions Chris has asked are full of bias and misunderstanding simply because of the fear that it has relation to China😂China must have done well to provoke such great amount of fear lol i have to say compared with twitter now X, Tiktok is far more healthy. The whole atmosphere is about enjoying life while twitter just full of anger and hatred if you get me.
have you considered this? my question is that while tiktok serves its purpose, did they realize the unintended consequences and how so they balance that? for example people have died from tictok changes and people have committed suicide. these are not outliers and should be taken seriously. what are the measures that tiktok has taken to prevent the tragedies. i mean effective measures. after so many years of the existence of tiktok, tragedies still happen. i haven’t mentioned all the tragedies by the way. i know that good things can happen too but remember that when it comes to life, one is enough to make a statistical significance
Shou Chew is the man. He’s so good at dealing with people who are just salivating for a “gotcha”
You noticed that right?😅, i also think the interviewer was prepared behind the scenes to ask some absurd questions, to gather information from shou chew,
TikTok = how to create more negative Algorithm to give the youths outside China more bad influence so that they can bring more harm to themselves.
Mr Chew finally gets to express himself here in less than 30 minutes, compared to being cut every minute at the congress hearing. The host is such a good interviewer, he gets to poke at all the sensitive topics without being offensive and accusative. Finally, I'm amazed at how much additional effort and money TikTok was pushed to spend, in order to calm down concerns from all directions (psychological & political in particular). As honest efforts always pay off, I indeed believe in a future of longitivity for Tiktok.
such an articulate and charismatic leader
Proud to be Singaporean 🇸🇬
so Impressive and He is really influential person in the world who has marvelous mindset. thumbs up.
He is really a sincere, honest, responsible and royal person, employee and CEO. 👍👍
TikTok = how to create more negative Algorithm to give the youths outside China more bad influence so that they can bring more harm to themselves.
We started exploring the space, but now we're fighting which country will lead the best social media app with it's algorithm and shifted all our focus to that part
Ever since the expansion of the internet, everyone is running behind money
It's important to remember that before Tik Tok, Vine was the premier short content video app. That whole debacle of a hearing on TikTok is essentially Meta, lobbying both sides of the political spectrum to ban it so it can eventually have people mass transition to it's Instagram one stop shop of a platform. They've already eaten up the SnapChat market, and now Tik Tok stands in it's way of the ever growing data marketshare.
Im not using tiktok, but actually, i'm thinking of bussiness on tiktok rightnow ! Good talk from Mr. Shou Chew
Thanks for the video❤❤.
Concise and useful tips as always.
Glad to see Chew was given a fair chance to explain their operations. This is the video the US Congress should watch.

Great watch. Many thanks - such considered & articulate questions, answers and conversations from both sides
Shou Chew is an exemplary leader of today. We can say all we want but this gentleman has exhibited professionalism, emotional regulation at the highest degree in all situations we have been shown, integrity and intelligence.
I think we have to be fair that TikTok is an app and in the end it is a business with a mission and vision like all businesses do. While they have responsibility to their customers, the customers must be accountable on how they use the app, too. It's a collaboration effort between users and the app. If we are civil and morally aware, we would know what to and what not to. TikTok is an app that allows a stage for anyone and everyone regardless of our status, connections. Mr Chew says it, everyone stands a chance to make it so long as you have talent and of course posting regularly.
Just like everything in life, exercise moderation, it will be a safe platform for all.
Naive comment. Heard of dopamine? It shatters such simplistic views of behavior. It drives addictions, as does TikTok!
👍🏼
The fact that the interviewer is asking the questions and behaving like he knows everything better than the CEO of TikTok. I personally think that minimum questions should be a great opportunity for us to learn more from the CEO. You’re with a talent and you act like you’re a genius. That’s insane
From what I understood from this video, arguably, based on the interest graphs, tiktok may need to know less about you for the recommendation algo compared to social graphs. This was such a productive session and answered all the questions that Congress refused to let Shou answer or failed to ask. Chris Anderson and Shou Chew were brilliant.
"You pulled off a kind of bipartisan consensus in US politics" - Just means that all US corporates are against tik tak and somehow tik tok hasn't bought any senator yet
"You're one of the most influential and powerful people in the world, whether you know it or not" - Gives "with great power comes great responsibility" vibes and kind of speaks both of the humility of Shou and how much Chris Anderson genuinely hopes Shou knows the weight of his responsibility and how much he wishes Shou well.
Your comment is word salad
tiktok is the number 1 platform to showcase your talent to the world.
Great interview! Thanks Chris, it has changed my perception about Tik Tok, for better🎉❤
It's a collective effort and responsibility for the product and the consumer to maintain a safe environment within any platform. That's the main core vision towards the mission of understanding oneself and the other providing a good education system.
wow. big fan of Chris here. he asks the question
He is humble and honest, also logically empressed ideas
I’m installing TikTok while listening to this Ted talk. What an impressive person.

Im a 41 old male living in Oklahoma. I use TikTok few times a week. I don't see anything wrong with it. Overtime it shows you videos you will most likely enjoy. I think it's a great app. You can if you aren't careful almost fall into a trance. Keep saying one more video. I like the app.

I just watched this video and I think is very, very good talk
Chew impressed me a lot. He's a guy to be studied in courses related to Rhetoric. He's so well spoken and eloquent. Right now this guy is super hot in the market. He could basically choose where he wants to work, put his résumé to an auction and see what companies, governments or any kind of industry that needs a public relations officer and see who offers him more money.
Im not on tiktok i have never used it, but the CEO speaks so well and i think its a good platfomr but the USA government is afraid of free speech more than they preach about it
The issue has nothing to do with free speech. It has to do with human nature - dopaminergic response (which causes many addictions). Apps like TikTok are causing mental health crises in every nation, especially among youth.
In the future, hopefully you realize that the first thing that pops into our head ("free speech") may not be the issue at hand.
I hope you can push yourself to think on topics more broadly, and you can see it's a complicated world. Best of luck.
@@keep-ukraine-free528Is youtube not an addiction? Theres more active users on youtube, and people spend longer hours on youtube than tiktok. Yet tiktok is mentioned in adiction. Thats sick.
@@amulia1 You're making a classic mistakes of equivalents. Why did you assume *_both_* aren't addictive? Both ARE addictive. But TikTok is much more addictive, in two ways. First -- per hour, TikTok throws many more short-form videos at a typical user. So on TikTok, a user is bombarded by more addictive & emotional moments per hour. (TikTok's video creation tools let content-creators create more "catchy" & addicting/emotional videos - by comparison a typical YT video is less exciting & often boring). Second, TikTok's algorithms are optimized for more active emotional engagement every second & every minute. YT can't (and doesn't need to) monitor the user so often (since YT videos are so much longer. Both are addictive & both manipulate their users, but TikTok does both much more. It's more dangerous. The sociological studies keep showing TikTok is one of the most addictive. All of this comparative info comes not from belief or opinion, but from many scientific & sociological studies.
@keep-ukraine-free528 if Tik tok is owed by a US investor will you still call them out?
@@keep-ukraine-free528 Do you understand the meaning of addiction? People spend on average longer hours than Tiktok. Do you think TH-cam does not use algorithm to predict what you want to watch? Why do you think it always recommends the perfect videos. In fact TH-cam has the biggest data base for this, because its owned by google. Furthermore, TH-cam also has youtube shorts which is the exact same as Tiktok. TH-cam is just worst than tiktok in every way. Even the adds that are ran in youtube are significantly longer.
A very thoughtful cEO, who can articulate so well.
People in the free world can see he's naive, duplicitous, or both. Being an articulate doesn't matter if you're unethical or naive.
@@keep-ukraine-free528 he is making every efforts to address everyone concerns. This shows how dedicated he is, coming out of competitive billion people gave him a survival instict.
this is really great talk.
Great questions from Chris, I wish they had more time. Shou seemed very very careful and often too evasive in his answers.
I don't have TikTok, I waste too much time on screens as it is. But I hope we find ways to make these things (social media, AIs etc) better for us as humanity rather than for few people's wallets.
Agree with
literally! all the other top comments saying hes such a good ceo are giving bootlicker energy, he was so evasive when answering that sometimes i wondered if he even understood the question
@@raidenyvelina8558 I don't think the host asked genuine questions, it was more like a trial again. Basically all the questions he asked could be applied to any other social media platforms, about privacy, about data, about addiction, but why tiktok? Because it is Chinese, that is the only reason why tiktok is getting so much attention. Facebook did the something years ago and I don't see this level of interrogation.
This is a bazillion times better than what they did in the Congress hearing
Lol, "bazillion". Sure. This guy Shou Chew is trying to pull the wool over everyone's eyes. He's good for his company, but bad for people & society. Maybe another Zuckerberg?????
Shou broke-downed and emphasized the geniusand brilliance of the Interest Graph really well, without really saying the word itself. Such a mad skill.
He is one way to define the phrase, "pleasant on the eyes."
like it or not, huge respect to this man.
I really like this CEO...ALL THE BEST SIR
It's not always easy to be negative about your product as a business person but truth be told making the users to be glued to using tiktok for longer periods of time is one of their main goals as a company
He is handsome, eloquent, and seemingly sincere but I won't totally buy what he said.
pause@@aertybhujm1
Amazing CEO, so apt and compelling and seemingly transparent. He looks so much responsible and trustworthy to lead a platform like tik tok safely and to success. Wish him all the best, so much to emulate from him.
Many of his answers were naive, and his "solutions" will not work.
I'm left to believe he is either too naive or too duplicitous. Neither are good signs. His behaviors matche those of a younger Zuckerberg. It's difficult to say, but maybe narcissism is at play? He's not a good CEO. He's good for his company, but quite bad for society. (TikTok is recognized as danger, in many ways, in most free nations. Do you not understand why that's so?)
unprecedented amount of transparency
Exceptional interview!
He uses the word "proactively" so often that it stuck up in my head 😁
Proactively one more time
The CEO really presents in upper scale professionally. Love it❤
Thanks for the video
Kuddos to Mr Chew and his team. I now understand the vision and the mission. Am glad the team is sitting on top of these issues instead of sweeping them under. TikTok it seems like they are leading and steering the direction of their vision.👊🏾❤️
this is like another congressional hearing, but with manners from the host.
two things i like about Shou's speaking on Ted:
1. he really does not argue his way out of these raising concerns
2. the practical efforts and costs put into company's responsibilities & transparency is admirable
As i've been working on Tech Industry for a while, his initiates on data privacy & third party review is really unprecedented.
I use TikTok and I am an artist there. That’s also how I got exposure as a local artist, here in Portland, Oregon. 🌹💜🦋⭐️
I wish to learn from him Chew is such an amazing leader the way he speaks the way he elaborate .. very clear ..he is a true leader ..smart intelligent patience and humble Guy .
The egg in one hand example is spot on. If AI can be used to help finding fake info, media platform can function better
This is how the hearing with congress should've been like. Not senators constantly interrupting the CEO just so they can hear themselves talking....
I think what to rethink is the definition of creativity and joy. The content is the key, algorithms are less important. Personally I am cautious about indirect information. It is less relevant to my life, it is much harder to tell its authenticity. No matter how it is tailored for entertainment or tutoring , the information quality degrades because of the fewer degrees of freedom contact between me and that piece of information.
The best quality information is from real life, the things happening in real life that has a direct interact or impact. All those media platforms are basically engineering information so-seriously using AI that asks users to pay attention and then forget.
Additionally, creation or distribution of information should be free. I don't know how much value people's attention is to the media platform and the advertisement industry, but eventually I believe in no-cost, feel-free, authentic and transparent information creation, distribution and feedback.
I like that the way Chris speaks hasn't really changed.
i love tiktok. It changed my life really giving me more independence and motivation
Tik tok =the biggest procrastination tool in history
That goes for every modern social media platform. And now the other main platforms (TH-cam, Instagram, Twitter) are attempting to copy TikTok’s user interface anyway. Singling out TikTok fixes nothing
Or Chinese data harvester
At least the other social media platforms sell your data to local businesses and not the CCP
Lol
@@mbergamin16 not sure, why are you think they don’t, probably because you are American🤦🏼♂️
I dont like him
Summary:
Host: We have seen variety of different -ve consequences of tiktok
CEO:
* Our vision is to promote CREATIVITY.
* We take it VERY VERY ULTRA seriously.
* We have: Age Restriction, Parental Control, Community Guidelines, Algorithm that definitely does not want you addicted, and 1000s of employees in Ireland.
CEO mental note:
* Repeat those points, even if it's obviously not true.
* AI agents? Heh what's he talking about? Just repeat the points until he skips this part.
* Do not acknowledge ANY negative consequence of TIKTOK.
* It is IMPOSSIBLE to use TikTok for procrastination, stupid acts, depression, poor attention span, -ve body image, vandalism WHATSOEVER.
< Drink water ~ slowly ~ gulp >
I think I sense a lot of negativity from Americans towards Tick Tok.
I have never seen them reacting this way towards other technology.
That's what they used to be able to do with social media, free speech, like Facebook, Twitter. They're afraid tiktok will do the same. The bottom line is tiktok makes a lot of money. Money is the only factor
I feel like he's an A.I. himself. So smart and articulate! ❤
I love how organized and put together he his.
The guy’s impressive. Suave, well-articulated.
The power of rehearsal and talking points
You forgot to mention naive, duplicitous, and avoidant. He didn't answer many questions (evaded them), and for others he gave incorrect answers. Yes, a performance but not a good performance. Maybe he's posing to be another Mr. Zuckerberg???
Amazing talk
I like wen one of the senators told him that he is a cosmopolitan man well educated and capable of expressing many topics❤
As a Singaporean, I am proud of you. Chew Shou Zi !!!
People in the free world saw him as naive, duplicitous, or both. I hope Singaporeans aren't like that. That would be quite sad.
Yes the brightest Singaporeans...are ironically...not in Singapore 🙂
Perhaps he can speak chinese, Zhang yiming can not speak English properly, especially in deep conversations .

Really impressed by Shou's sharing! And so proud of being a fellow Singaporean :) Thank you for all the little things done to protect and make Tiktok a safer platform for all, especially for kids!
Great to see the director of Tiktok
facebook, tiktok are couple of examples where app became too efficient to the point it became bad, IMO.
The way he explained everything got me like...... woww, Awesome!! I am a fan Mr chew
Thank you, this felt like a personal reading 🥰
Have just got a fantastic job interview in another town, but also expecting my old boss / partner to get in touch to work for him again... Choosing will be very hard 🤦
Im excited tp explore the Booktok❤
Great interview
Great because it revealed Shou Chews naivette and/or duplicitousness. He didn't answer many questions, and other answers were incorrect (they won't reduce the high risks).
His repetitive claims that "TikTok's Community Guidelines" will alleviate all risks of mental health harm... is rather naive.
He really knows of what he's doing. smash!!
Thank you for remknder to clear data and cache 👍
Much more likeable guy than expected. The fact though someone can copy your content on tik tok and to fight it you have to submit all of your info including your home address which their disclaimer says they can share w anyone including the thief of your content.
Excellent questions and pushback!
The pushback was lame, and showed naivete or duplicitous behaviors. I learned Shou Chew is not trustworthy, since several of his answers won't provide the protections he claimed. His "solutions" won't work. TikTok is and will remain a danger to societies.
He completely ignored the issue of mental health problems in users.
His Very Naive response claimed "TikTok Community Guidelines" will prevent a dopaminergic cascade leading to addiction.
@@keep-ukraine-free528 theres no perfect social media. don't like it, go somewhere else for your liking. good luck finding a perfect dynamic social media.
People make their own decision to use social media, knowing all its risks after all. If you cannot resist the temptation, addiction or bad self esteem, social media works only as a mirror to reflect who you are.
Wow a ching chong defending his country’s app
we always need to look out for high-risk groups. in this case, young ones, and other mentally vulnerable people
@B Babbich 你说得对，所以美国政府一定是要ban毒品和啤酒的……对吧……
Internal and external factors are important, but some people give too much credit to self-related characteristics like discipline. External factors and how it enables are important as well.
I can't be bothered about tiktok. I don't like that type of media, it's too attention grabbing and mind-numbing. I won't be going around telling people about 'ooooo how disciplined I am'. It's also similar to 'hard work', especially when someone is ignorant about their own privilege. Or, imagine if you had the genetic predisposition to getting addicted to certain things?
Of course there are exceptional examples who have fantastic levels of discipline despite external temptations, but that's not the majority. It definitely feels better to take credit for everything I guess.
I suggest you learn about dopamine, addiction, narcissism, and other pathologies.
TikTok is a haven for mental illnesses. But you won't realise that unless you're knowledgeable & experienced in such fields.
Of all the "opportunities" that the US boasts about, the opportunity to complete a sentence is certainly non-existent the last time he went there. Good to know he managed to finish a sentence this time round.
His spoken Engish ability is so nice!!!
He is from Singapore where they speak English as well as Chinese
Don't forget that Singaporeans speak Singlish as well 😅
He's from Singapore. What language do you think he would be speaking?
A true gentleman.
the interviewer was amazing, he led very well, and he asked questions that Shou Chew try to avoid, very good interview, everyone should read the word in between this amazing 39:18 min interview. 10/10.
fun fact, many platforms are copying this ai mechanism from tik tok, recetrly youtube shorts, or the Instagram reels, crazy times are coming.
True.
Troubling.
TikTok the Terrible!
Ted is so good at the interview. Mr. Chew is the best CEO.
It's amazing that he didn't dissed FB especially, Google or any other internet co on privacy issues when they are more susceptible to foreign interference on US elections due to their revenue model and on privacy issues. Seldom hear from a CEO who actually knows and work on the company's vision and mission, it's usually just bs puff. It was a pleasant Ted talk, the interviewer is fantastic.
I miss him from Xiaomiiii ❤
Shou seems to be a genuine person. He made a lot of good cases for the platform. How can it be profitable going forward with all the regulations?
