TikTok's hopped aboard the AI bandwagon with its announcement of 'TikTok Symphony.' Symphony's a generative AI suite designed to help marketers create ads.
TikTok says the Symphony suite provides 3 major features: video production, script writing and asset enhancement. Of course, these are all powered by AI.
Symphony Creative Studio - This is an AI video generator. TikTok claims the creative studio can create platform-ready videos for you. You only need to enter a few inputs and it does the rest.
The studio also offers ready-to-use videos for your ongoing campaigns. The platform creates these videos based on assets and product info found in TikTok Ads Manager.
Symphony Assistant - This is an AI assistant designed to help you generate and polish your scripts. It can also help you enhance your ad campaigns.
Symphony Ads Manager Integration - TikTok says you can use this feature to give your existing videos a glow-up to help them stand out.
Let's be real. TikTok ads are annoying as hell.
We can't stand them just as much as the next user. So we're interested in seeing if generative AI makes much of a difference over time, not just for brands, but for consumers' experiences too.
On one hand, Symphony could provide some genuinely good advice. This could mean ads become more effective, engaging, and at the very least tolerable.
But if Symphony's generative AI just takes inspiration from pre-existing, already irritating ads across the platform, then we can expect the same exhausting experience - only it'll be less human.
