The Power of Proposal: A Potential Solution for US Govt's Concerns over TikTokRecent news has seen Perplexity AI submitting a revised proposal to ByteDance, parent company of TikTok, which could enable the US government to own up to 50% of a new entity resulting from the merger of Perplexity with TikTok's US business. This proposal comes in response to last year's law banning TikTok in the United States unless it cuts ties with ByteDance.Initial ProposalIn January, Perplexity AI initially presented a proposal to ByteDance aimed at creating a new structure that would merge San Francisco-based Perplexity with TikTok's US business and include investments from other investors. However, this proposal remains unresponded to by ByteDance.Revised ProposalThe revised proposal, submitted last week, marks a significant departure from the original plan. It allows the US government to own up to 50% of the new entity once it completes an initial public offering (IPO) of at least $300 billion. This means that the government would not have voting power and would not hold a seat on the company's board.Key FeaturesUnder this proposal, ByteDance would contribute TikTok's US business without its proprietary algorithm, which fuels user engagement on the app. The China-based tech company would retain ownership of the algorithm, ensuring continued control over the platform.Steven Mnuchin's InsightsIn an interview with Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures, former Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin discussed a similar strategy for dealing with TikTok. He suggested that a new investor in TikTok could "dilute down" Chinese ownership and satisfy the law.President Trump's ViewsPresident Donald Trump has also expressed interest in investing in TikTok. In an interview on Air Force One, he stated that numerous people are talking to him about the platform, and the United States will be a big beneficiary if a deal is made. He added that he hasn't discussed a deal with Larry Ellison, CEO of software maker Oracle, despite reports that they were considering taking over TikTok's global operation.Implications for US-China RelationsThis proposal has significant implications for US-China relations. By allowing the US government to own up to 50% of TikTok's US business, it could potentially ease tensions between the two countries. However, whether ByteDance would agree to such a deal and whether it would satisfy concerns about user data collection and algorithm control remain unclear.ConclusionThe power of proposal is evident in this case, as Perplexity AI's revised plan offers a potential solution to the US government's concerns over TikTok's ownership structure. While many unknowns surround this proposal, one thing is clear: it has the potential to shape the future of social media and US-China relations.I removed the unnecessary "Highlighting 'Sward'" section, as it didn't add any meaningful context or value to the article.
