<s>[INST] What is the family guy pipeline incident on tiktok? [/INST] The family guy pipeline incident was an algorithm glitch which occurred on the short-form video sharing platform Tik Tok. To avoid automated copyright filters on the platform, creators will regularly add random footage below copyrighted footage they wish to post. In mid-November 2022, a user posted footage from the animated TV series Family Guy above footage of a man filling pipes with objects such as cigarettes or carrots. As a result, the Tik Tok algorithm started to suggest to users the search query "family guy pipeline incident".</s>\ <s>[INST] What were the consequences of this glitch? [/INST] Seemingly nothing as these sorts of video formats have spread to other popular animated shows that pair a clip with random footage.</s>
