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 was built on human content. Human interaction. A community of people.
Gen AI is anti-human. It steals from creators, it tries to recreate what we make, say, do, but it's always souless.
Do not add AI to Twitch. It's done so much damage to creators on Youtube.
This will fall on deaf ears due to the ownership of the company, but **** Gen AI. -

Hi Twitch. How about not falling for the extremely obvious grift that GenAI is and actually standing by and for your user base? You know, the user base that built this place into what it is and is the reason people, and brands, have come to this platform at all?
Getting in bed with some stupid AI company might sound good for your profit margins now but, when the bubble bursts (as it's bound to), you'll end up being worse off than if you had just invested in the creators that make this place what it is in the first place.

I'm so tired of companies shoving AI down our throats. You are going to force a lot of people off the platform if you do not make any AI things optional.

The creators are what make this site what it is. No one wants ai.

AI should never be forced onto creators. AI should never be forced as a mechanism to learn from creators. How about you just work with your creators more often?

You are a site built on creators. Using generative AI is antithetical to creative and is NOT what anybody wants.
You will lose so many creatives and users if you go through with this. Just considering it has already cost you.

I don't want anything to do with AI. I won't allow it to use my voice or behaviour as a training model.

Please respect all creators and their voices. Never ever use any of their content or even their likeness for AI training.

I will delete my account and never use Twitch again if this rolls out. AI is not a worthwhile idea or investment. There is nothing positive about AI.

stop forcing ai on a platform that does not need nor forcing it on creators who do not want it, twitch is filled with artists, and content creators, a bunch have told you they don't want this, but then again you don't really take the feedback into account it feels
opt out should be default -

Nobody wants this and you're going to lose a ton of streamers if you do this. Also, training an "AI" on big companies' copyrighted video games is a great way to get sued. Did anyone think about that, or did you just see "AI" and decide to do it?

As an Indigenous person I am an advocate for the healthy longevity of our planet. This includes making sure people have clean drinking water and housing security (two things that these data centers are currently destroying), and that we have something sustainable to leave future generations.
Twitch as the leading platform in the streaming industry has the opportunity to reject the use of genAI and be a powerful ally in human made content.

Please respect the voice of your creators. Do NOT use our likeness, content, or personal branding to train your AI models.

This may be the nail in the coffin for Twitch maybe people will probably jump ship for this but as far as we know Twitch doesn’t even read this now they might just be using ai to read it and sometime it for Dan Clancy, and while people search for a new Twitch i thought running a noise filter would help with any ai but in reality would destroy the bandwidth, just like how ai is probably gonna be what destroys the world just so some one can add some extra 0’s to there net worth.this is also clearly a stepping stone that show Twitch doesn’t care and that more ai is very likely in the future for Twitch. While All I see is a grave for that coffin, right next to vine and parascope

"AI is the future! It's progress!"
Draining freshwater sources, clear cutting more trees to build data centers, ah yes. The future. The future where summer temperatures in the us raise even higher than the 110 they are reaching, the future where even more plants than just lettuce bring disease because there is only bad water to use. Truly a future I'm sure everyone wants. -

Allowing your AI to train on streamers is UNBELIEVABLY dangerous- you are opening up streamers to deepfakes, harassment, and stolen data. This is extremely shortsighted of you. Whoever allowed their greed to overwhelm their common sense should be ashamed.
