Make all AI features optional, and opt-out by default.
For any features on Twitch which use AI, allow all creators to opt in or opt out of them individually, and set the default to Opt Out for all new AI features. We as creators should have the choice whether to use AI or not on our channels. If we do not want to use it at all, it's important for us to be able to have that choice, AND for us not to be opted in by default.

You know you just made people realize how bad of a platform you are, and caused your niche competition to ramp up their game to dethrone you, right? You do realize that 90% of the common people (AS IN, THE PEOPLE WATCHING STREAMS AND ACTUALLY PAYING MOST OF IT) hate AI with a burning passion ,right?

There is nothing on the site on the front end that if you added an ai feature would benefit, or improve the experience for viewers, creators, or moderators.

Goodwill can be spent, and it will never come back. I will not hesitate to never use the twitch platform again. You aren't the only streaming platform.

no just no.
This is a horrible idea and you would be out of your minds to go throught with it.
No one wants the content of their fav streamer stolen or used for ai. stop trying to make this happen!

Using streams to train AI really defeats the purpose of human creation. Art & entertainment, leave it to humans. Do reconsider it all together. If anything, at least the option to opt out. It should be a streamer's choice if their content is used in this way.

There is seriously no reason for this to even be a debate. the only purpose.Any company so far has successfully used for a I is to commit a form of theft through their data scraping. the vast majority of people on the internet are not interested in having themselves be used to train ai. if they are, then given the opportunity to say so, and they will happily do so. keep it opt out and make it optional.Because if you try to force this, you are going to find that the majority of people on your platform will leave it quickly. there are alternatives, and people are aware of those alternatives. especially on twitch, creativity is the primary source of their monetary existence.

I was thinking of streaming on Twitch, but if there's even a single non-optional AI feature, I will jump ship. AI is the devil and has no place anywhere in anything.

Abso-*******-lutely not. No one on your platform that brings it legitimate value wants this. Don't poison good will for a cheap dollar. Because you can't get that currency back.

As someone who's work is built around the creative efforts of artists, both my own and others, at the very least please allow Opt out.

This is not a wanted feature, at all, by myself or anyone. We are 100% against this happening, and again, we do not want it

Generative AI implementation is flopping for companies across the board. It costs more to use for the same output from a human, and data centers destroy the environment like no "advance" in technology before. Also, because of the aforesaid, people everywhere have begun rallying to block said centers from being built. As a company, you would have to be patently brain-dead to still think of implementing it. Aside from the moral and reputational event horizons you would cross, you also might as well burn billions in cash; it'll be the same result either way.

Don’t do this Twitch. There are other streaming platforms we can jump ship to tomorrow.

using twitch streams to train AI is just as bad as using genAI to make art and music and AI is being used on twitter for CSAM, AI is bad for the environment and uses drinking water to cool down the servers from data centers. this is a misuse of twitch and amazon’s capital and will result in a loss of profit when the AI bubble bursts as other companies are already backing out of AI investments due to faulty code that costs more to fix than if you never had AI investments the first place. your loss, amazon and twitch. **** off the streaming community and **** out money for all I care AND destroy the environment. ******* genius for your future spawn to inherit the earth. at least pretend to have some integrity.

Nobody wants this. I don't want anything to do with AI, especially as an artist. You're not stealing my hard work. If you choose to implement this, there needs to be an opt-out. Otherwise, many will leave.

Generative AI as a whole goes against the spirit of human artistry, and a platform like Twitch is intrinsically about human artistry and creativity.

If you implement this then I will stop using Twitch wholesale, full stop. Add another dead site to the graveyard.
