Not really. There's depictions and description of mechanical men in novels least a century before Tik Tok was thought up by Baum. There's even a older term that's similar to robot: Automaton.
No. They used to be called automata. Or automatons in the ancient days before mtv when the “stupiding” began and people like Kim Kardashian became relevant. It was a magical time.
I agree. Tiktok is "one of the" earliest examples of a robot in literature. There are other examples of strange contrivances built to walk and talk like a man but this is one of the earliest where the audience is meant to understand it is a mechanical machine with a limited power supply that could theoretically exist in reality. Most other examples involve some unknowable cosmic force that imbues them with "life" Even Karl Capec's RUR robots are not true mechanical contrivances but are described more as artificial biological entities.

@@alexmollon933 People get that wrong all the time. Oz was not doomy and gloomy in and of itself, it was the Nome King's spell that *made it* doomy and gloomy. But here's the point: Dorothy was there to restore it to what it should be, and she did just that, as we saw at the Restoration Scene.
@@alexmollon933 P.P.S.: Judy was sixteen, which, to be sure, she considered, in her own words, "practically grown-up," but she was classed as a minor and played Dorothy as a twelve year old. The fact that she was all of 4'11" helped a great deal.
My grandfather has a westclox "Big Ben" wind up alarm clock. He used it to guard his carbon paper by rigging it to the paper drawer with a string. Whenever someone unknowingly opened the drawer, the drawer pulled the string which pulled the alarm. It still works today if you shake it a bit, and reminds me of TikTok the character.
The only thing stranger than a young girl saving Oz with the help of a lion, scarecrow, and tin man, is a young girl saving Oz with the help of a robot, a chicken, a flying couch, and a skinny man with a pumpkin head!
I can top that, a young girl with an adult's voice traveling into space with her robot butler meeting an alien plant hippy and lion to save the Galaxy of Oz (look it up it's real)
How about a young boy saving Oz with a Pumpkin-headed wooden man, a living sawhorse, a scarecrow, a tin lumberjack, a flying sofa with a beast's head, a six-foot tall insect, AND THEN that same boy gets transformed into a girl who is the rightful ruler of Oz? Top that if you can!

I was particularly fond of his work in another great work of fiction, as he played both Lord Azriel and the armoured bear King Iorek Byrnison from the His Dark Materials Trilogy audiobooks.

The people who made the movie intended for it to be creepy (everything they made has a creepy quality to it). But it is weird hearing it with that overtone because the books are completely the opposite... 🤣
