In 2025, according to PW Skills, TikTok’s AI decides what listeners see based on real-time engagement—think likes, shares, comments, and even the typical length of videos users interact with. Robert Benjamin, a leading TikTok expert, says creators should now pay close attention to trending video lengths and topics because the algorithm heavily favors new content uploaded in the last 24-48 hours. If you want your video to go viral, study what’s working in your niche and match your content’s length to the trends. Major headlines this week include some serious news tied to TikTok’s influence offline. FOX 11 in California reports that the FBI raided a home thought to be linked to an alleged 'TikTok cult' leader—part of an ongoing investigation sparked by a Netflix docuseries that shocked many in the community.

For anyone hoping to break through, small creators are buzzing about new platform rules rolled out late July.
