Just wanted to maybe make a light suggestions that, for marketing purposes, this really doesn't need any suggestion of TikTok and also might benefit from less heavy handed mentions of AI. I think it provides a real value proposition on its own without needing to rely on those two things to sell itself. They are pretty polarized terms at this point and I can sort of understand the initial revulsion from hearing TikTok next to scientific papers.

I appreciate those things are mentioned front and centre, because it reveals the mindset and goals of the author, which is a useful signal. Depending on the person that signal either means “give it to me now” or “I’m going to stay far far away from this”, but either way it’s useful to know.

I think there is something to it. It seems that "TikTok" part is actually minimal, but it is bound, from purely marketing perspective, to drive some people here away. You might as well say something along the lines of Uber for bananas or "we pivot banana to AI and we are now Nutella AI"
