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.

Please, do NOT automatically assume that customers/content creators on your platform aren't ok with allowing AI models to train on their content. Not only is AI being viewed as a source of plagiarism, it is ALSO harming our way of life. I am disturbed at seeing all these news articles about these centers stealing all the water from towns, and polluting the water sources.... as well as abusing certain aspects of Generative AI. Use these training models if you must, but there's a vast majority of us that are NOT ok with this.

AI is not a tool to help, but to hinder creativity and to keep people stupid. I'm tired of the rampant integration of AI in social media. This will not help the platform in any way nor the streamers who use this for their livelihoods.

I have several beloved communities that I spend my time with on Twitch. Like, these communities mean everything to me. I will STILL LEAVE TWITCH IN A HURRY if it switches to using AI in its streaming services. We don’t need it to have meaningful content. It doesn’t improve the most important quality of what makes Twitch just work: the human quality. And it’s a massive waste of money and resources for getting in a tech bubble that’s about to pop once government oversight and the law catches up to the tech. Twitch, investors, and Daddy Besos, don’t waste your time or test your users fidelity with this. There WILL be a mass exodus if AI is brought in any meaningful way. Thanks!

No one wants Generative AI as it only makes the platforms worse. I do not consent in any way shape or form to this.

what makes twitch unique is the interactivity with the human broadcaster in real time. Adding in AI features drives a wedge between viewer and broadcaster that does not enhance the viewing experience, rather it is a detriment because the raw, human interactivity gets varnished over with the same, AI-driven gloss that renders a creative work lifeless and devoid of any intrinsic artistic value

If AI training data is taken out of livestreams, even if it’s “optional” yet opt-in by default, I’m never touching twitch again.

Generative AI has lead to the worsening of features on social media sites owned by Meta. Grok and X's GenAI are forcing the sexualization of femmes and children. All of this has been forced on to users and is starting to push people away from using these platforms.
Additionally, GenAI is contributing to the surveillance state. No one wants this.
If Twitch insists on pushing GenAI and using its streamers to train AI models, then Twitch will also face the same exodus by those of us who already have a healthy distain for a feature we never asked for.

Opt out as default as a minimum, please, as much as it is strongly urged to reconsider given the negative feedback that AI has been given lately. It will hurt your profits and reputation as it has other companies, since I know money is a factor in all this, as much as a user's voice should be just as important.
Countless content creators do not support AI training models, including actors, voice actors, artists, singers, and more. There are many content creators out there that use assets purchased from sites that do not use or support AI-training models at all. This will cause friction and for content creators and streamers to find alternatives as to not waste their investments if these changes are mandatory.

You will never ever have my consent to use my streams for AI training, and I can guarantee you that most users feel the same way.

AI "training" is theft of creative content and if this feature is forced on streamers, then they should absolutely have the right to refuse consent.

As a user and a person who streams on twitch I believe that so called AI is nothing more then a theft machine. That steals the work of people, destroys minds, poisons the world, and provides almost nothing of value. If you continue down the path of ai I and many like me will have no choice but to switch to another stream site.

AI is proving day by day being the worst possible form of creating content, not only morally but also eficiently. And users have the right to protect their data and choose which of their data is used to do something. This option should not be implemented and ,if so, it should be deactivated by default.

This should be at minimum opt out as a default, I would say it shouldn't be added at all.
The bubble is on the cusp of bursting, what are you going to do when it does?
