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.

Twitch I beg of you do not do this. Nobody asked for this, do right by creators and do not opt us in to this

Keep Gen AI scrapping off of Twitch. It's bad enough that AI tools get shoved into the platform already, but using creator's work to feed Gen AI is beyond the pale.

Nobody on your platform wants this. I certainly don't. My voice and my likeness are mine and mine alone, I do not want some script to train off of me to allow others to replicate me and make "me" do and say things I would not, nor should you enable anyone to allow this. The fact this has gotten thousands upon thousands of votes in just about a day or two should indicate how horrible of an idea this is, and how much you stand to lose if you go ahead with it.

I do not want AI involved in Twitch at all. However, if you must go down this destructive path then I will leave your platform so fast if you do not give me the option to opt out of using my streams for training AI. Pretty sure I will be one of many. In fact, this kind of stuff NEEDS to be opt out by default. Let the creators choose if they want to use AI Tools or submit our creative efforts for AI learning. We as the creators should have every right to decide whether or not you use our hard work, including the assets we made/paid for, our likenesses, our creativity, etc. Many of us are using this as a space to share our own creations, and are doing it basically free since we get so little monetarily. We will find another platform if you force this onto us without consent.

No more AI integration please. We're already so sick of having it inserted into our other facets in life. Let us have this free space.

Absolutely wild idea to try and integrate this after these last few years of constant justified backlash against AI. Just quite baffling.

I and many others I know will leave the platform altogether if AI training becomes a thing. At the very least it should be opt out by default, but preferably it shouldn't be added at all.

Twitch should have absolutely NOTHING to do with AI period. Adding it in at all will only drive away the freelance streamers that make up your core workforce and hurt any good will the brand has in the public's eye.
Given the inane **** many corporate shareholders seem to have for this dead end technology the bare minimum that Twitch can do for its streamers is make all features strictly default to opt out and to be fully transparent with any implementation.

I’d sooner this not be a thing at all, but the ability to opt out SHOULD ALWAYS BE AVAILABLE. If this is forced on users, I will be looking elsewhere to support creators I support.

Watch them make it crush your viewership if you don't opt in 😭

Twitch is a website with many creative people who go live every day. Adding any form of ai that trains off of their work especially without their consent is a major betrayal of all the hard work and passion people put into this website.

Hey so, do you wanna speed run losing ALL OF YOUR STREAMERS AND USERBASE? Good job. If you go through with this YOU will loose a majority of your userbase. MOST creators with a brain are against AI in the ways that you want to use it. Think long and hard about if you want to run your business into the ground over selfishness.

I would like this to not be added at all. If you're going to, the only compromise I would even give any credit to is opting out, and by default. Disgusting idea to just throw this at all creators without allowing them any agency in it.

Opting out is good, but how about we go a step further and not add this AI stuff at all, Twitch? Literally no one asked for this, NO creator wants this and this decision is LITERALLY a shot on your own feet! so how about we think a little bit and give up on the idea of destroying the platform with AI?

Absolutely not. Get this AI **** off our platform.

Also, pretty sure EU law will come and get Twitch anyway if its done like they say, i sure hope the threat of a lawsuit helps to stop this.
Make AI, regardless for what, opt-out by default. That is an infringement of copyright of creators and users if not.
