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.

Not only is using streams to train generative AI aimed to help billionaires make more money and waste resources that will contribute to climate change, it's effectively without anyone's consent and the already pitiful amount of revenue streamers make on the platform won't increase or profit as a result of this. This doesn't benefit the viewer or the streamer and is unethical. Your platform has royally failed and has completely lost its purpose if it can't uphold that. You will lose real humans and replace them with enshittified bots that lie, which apparently seems to be the aim for a lot of companies for some reason. So you know what go ahead and try it, see where it goes. I'm sure burning your platform for a short term gain will be worth it.

I do not want my streams or any of my content used to train AI. I LOVE streaming on Twitch and do it routinely, but I WILL retire if this is released. I'm very not ok with this. That's my line in the sand.
If this absolutely braindead and absurd "feature" somehow releases, it MUST be COMPLETELY disableable and opt-IN not opt-OUT, and I will absolutely be letting every person I know or visits my streams know about this option and to ensure it is disabled if they do not consent because I have literally zero viewers and fellow streaming friends that would consent to this.

No one wants this and if they do I'm sure they are invested on the financial side not the artistic/creator side. This will cause a bigger exodus from the platform than anything else before if it is forced on us.

If GenAI is implemented, we get the option to opt-out, AT A MINIMUM, or I boycott
the platform. I worked my *** off for 10+ years as a non-Affiliate, only to finally
break through 4 years ago and make it to 400 followers this year. GenAI is the
WORST insult to ALL talented artists that don't use this form of SLOP. Get it the
**** out of our faces, or Twitch will LOSE, FAR MORE MONEY, AND USERS, than
they will gain in the short term.

No one wants AI scraping their streams, videos, art, or music.

Forcing GenAI on us is horrible. I don't want my content ran through GenAi, the artists that makes my assets don't want it either.

Don’t make it optional - don’t institute this ******** at all. No one ******* wants this. Personally if streams are used to train generative AI, I’ll be removing everything from my profile & deleting my account entirely. I’ll have no part in it. GenAI can **** all the way off, and if Twitch is THIS tone def (I assume they are), then they can ******** too.

DO NOT add GenAI to this site. I do not need Twitch to support the people I enjoy watching and I will delete my account so fast if this is added, even with an opt out option. Do better.

Why are we doing this. This platform is literally made for people to create and this is taking the whole essence of that away.
In reality, if this actually goes through, this is just another reason for people to search for a different platform to create their content. Wether they're a small or big content creator.

I refuse to consent to have my face & voice used to train generative AI. You implement this, I opt out. You make it mandatory, I walk away. Simple as that

I DO NOT want my or anyone else's content to train AI for any generative or potentially malicious use - it's time to stop this useless genAI trend that does nothing to improve the things it touches. All it will do is show that those who use it are lazy, unimaginative, unintelligent and useless. Not the kind of message we should be embracing or supporting. Please, stop trying to force genAI on us, we DO NOT WANT IT. Focus on the creators themselves and how you can support us as people and how you can make the site better!

Ideally, generative AI and all related features would simply not be implemented onto the platform whatsoever, due to environmental and ethical concerns relating to them, but with corporate realism chasing trends and an ever heightening bottom line, the bare minimum I, and many others, would tolerate is being opted out of all functions related to it by default.
