What useful textual user data do you see coming from TikTok? All the text seems very low quality, to the point where I naively assume that including it in training data would decrease performance.

(1) all videos are captioned, automatically then often again by the content creator manually. This data alone is extremely valuable for training purposes. (2) the videos contain great information about slang terms, and youth vernacular. Which is unique data that is harder to find elsewhere. (3) young people seem to use TikTok as a search engine, so presumably some of the videos' content must be explicitly valuable enough as an information source, similar to YouTube.
