Amazon has made a surprise last-minute bid
to buy TikTok, days before a Saturday deadline for the app to separate from its
Chinese owner or be banned in the United States, The New York Times reported
citing three unnamed sources.
TikTok’s valuation remains contested, with estimates varying from US$20 billion ($31.8 billion) to more than US$300 billion, depending on whether its algorithm is factored in.
The algorithm increases the price by more than $280 billion. And what kind of algorithm? One that changes its high based on how you interact with it, to always try and get your dopamine flowing to keep you interacting longer. If it were a real substance, it would be the most addictive drug to ever exist.

You could argue if xai paid xitter 45 billion in their latest
money laundering operationacquisition, then TikTok is worth at least ten xittersWtf, do proprietary algorithms actually cost this much?
I mean, have you seen how effective Tik Toks one is?
