"Twitch has a part to play in the growth and development of AI"
NO THE ******* WILL NOT

It's beyond hypocritical for Twitch to tout itself as a platform for creators, and then turn around and stab those creators in the back by stealing their content to train AI. It's unethical, unprofessional, and, frankly, should not be legal. Serious changes need to be made in Twitch's leadership and policies.

Do not implement AI in any way, shape or form. Else, I'm leaving the platform. I don't care if it's opt-out by default, I don't want it, period.

No reasonable consumer/user has actively asked for AI enough to the point that it NEEDS to be implemented on Twitch. AI has completely ruined the pricing of technology for the time being. I'd rather Twitch/Amazon be the change to NOT ruin it further. We were doing fine before AI, and I'm tired of it being shoved in my face as a solution to a problem that never existed. Pricing of my RAM sticks have gone up from $100 USD to $600 because of this fake "demand" that somehow won't go away for yet another year or more.

Finally, my streamed and recorded content is MY content, it belongs to no one else. If music labels can issue takedowns for mere seconds of their songs being used, the same should be expected from users to Twitch for trying to train AI on user-created (CREATED, not GENERATED) content.

Stop making the world worse by wasting money on AI.

If Twitch chooses to go ahead with scraping channels and chats for the purposes of "training" genAI, then I'm out. Simple as that.

DO NOT ADD AI TO THIS PLATFORM.

You will lose almost everyone. Your website will collapse. If you want to end this web service, that's a quick way to do this. I will remove all of my content, and clearly so will everyone here who is commenting.

I don't see why anyone should use twitch at all, let alone give any of our hard-earned cash to it if it's just going to steal our content without consent.
This platform is nice but nobody ACTUALLY needs you, and we WILL leave.

If you're smart, you won't just make the features optional, you'll ditch any notion of them entirely.

I'll sooner stop streaming on Twitch and go Youtube exclusive if this change goes through.

I legitimately can’t think of a more useless, disrespectful and horrible “feature”. please just don’t.

Seriously... I'm gonna be blunt here. Twitch has NUMEROUS artists one the platform that use it as a means to try and prove that they are not using generative AI in their work, and now they're adding in measure to train a GENERATIVE AI PROGRAM? This is basically saying that they want to violate the ownership rights to an artist's own work and not give them ANY choice in the matter. Add in that there are NUMEROUS streamers, (whether as a VTuber, face cam streamer, or someone who just has the stream be the content and their voice), that go out of their way to commission artists who have to work hard as heck to prove that what they create is genuine and not AI generated, could be at risk of having their own brands stolen, is like a blatant slap in the face.
If Twitch wants to improve the platform, don't go "the cheap route", because, ultimately, it's not cheaper. In the long run, it costs more due to the fact that they LOSE people on the platform as a result because of the discomfort of being more and more flooded by fake accounts or people trying to purposefully cause harm and hate on the platform. If they want improvements, look at properly improving the UI, fix current bugs and glitches, fix the things that are most commonly reported as being either broken, bugging out, etc.

Take notes from the numerous websites who have been facing backlash from pushing Generative AI training and content of any kind and are making choices to REMOVE it. Don't try something that has already killed other websites. Be better than those sites and improve on what you already have going for you by fixing what is seen as broken by your user base and not what is seen as broken by someone who doesn't even interact with most of the platform's spaces. Plus, pushing a new policy/feature without even asking your user base if they wanted it is pretty scummy and shows no trust, faith, much less respect for the user base as a whole. Sorry. And, if this was something meant to be discussed, maybe should have done a better job of reaching out to the user base.

I refuse to be used to train AI. This will make me never stream again on the platform, and I will seek out other platforms to watch any streamers I currently follow. THE ANSWER IS NO.

AI have no place in creative spaces

This is going to drive creators off the platform, and it's going to cost the platform greatly. Automatically marking creators as opted out with the ability to manually opt in would be the better idea from all standpoint, especially from a financial one.

this will make me use youtube instead NO AI

No LLM on or connected to Twitch EVER!

If Twitch goes with this project, it will have the same issues YT has with their "moderation system", which will cause a lot of issues. NO TO AI

It's kind of telling that I found out about this when a bunch of streamers I follow announced on their Discord servers and socials that there's a possibility that they might be leaving Twitch sometime soon, with the heavy implication that it's related to this AI decision. And you know what? I don't blame them. I'll be following them wherever they end up going, and I won't be looking back. AI training should be opt-in for all aspects, not just some, with the default setting being off, and that's only if it needs to exist at all, which it absolutely does not here.

100% support this! Default to opt-out, and also no "if you opt in you can unlock more stuff on your stream" things either.

I cannot agree me. Streamers must have control over how the content they create is used.

This Ai training will drive thousands of streamers off of the platform, as well as significantly lowering veiwership.

Something that will SIGNIFICANTLY harm twitch, and enrich its competitors

this is a horrible decision, especially when its mentioned that there is a lot of internal pushback on the idea- let alone external
