1) Do not add any AI features or use videos for training AI or anything similar
2) Like the idea says, MAKE IT *OPT-OUT* BY DEFAULT

Big no to this AI sh**. Another page that wants permission to steal whatever I produce to train AI. If that gets implemented, it's time to delete my account and use another streaming service.

How do I convince you, Twitch, that this is a terrible idea? How do I convey how anti-human, anti-creativity, this action will be? AI is shown to be unprofitable and broadly disliked by normal people, and you want to chain yourselves to a drowning ship? I was having a great day and hadn't lapsed into depression for several months, before this announcement.

You know, I was fairly excited that I recently unlocked Affiliate. Now I need to seriously consider whether streaming for the long term on your platform is even a viable option for myself, and if we do not get the option to opt out of having our streams used to train AI datasets, then the answer is no, it won't be a viable option.

This is a stupid idea. Don't do it. But if you must, give us the grace to opt out of it.

You are not only going to annoy the vast majority of the creatives you've attracted to the platform, you're going to annoy their viewers, and then they will stop spending money and will leave. Also you're gambling with copyright of the video games that are being streamed and then fed into the LLM - multiple AI companies have lawsuits for similar against them, and training an AI on Twitch opens the door for that lawsuits to come hurtling at you as well.

DON'T.

Ideally, Twitch, you shouldn't steal other people's content to feed to some genAI. Genuinely what the **** would you even do with that, AI livestreams? You know that's just inevitably going to go rogue and violate your own ToS? If you REALLY need to please your shareholders THAT badly, the LEAST you could do is make it optional and off by default. Please do not go through with this.

pls dont hope on ai trend...

There is no use case in which running the millions of hours of streams that happen every day on Twitch through LLM training is going to be good for anyone in the long run. Don't use the hard work that every streamer puts into their content as training data and stop taking them for granted!

Generative AI is bad for the environment, creativity and humanity overall. Nothing about forcing creators content into AI slop machines is going to end well, especially with how badly genAI is received and how it will affect Twitch's bottom line as so many people are vehemently against it. This is an awful way to approach new technologies and at the very least should be opt in, but regardless will absolutely tarnish Twitch's reputation.

You want to lose customers/viewers/creators so badly? I guess it shows with this, even by suggesting AI,the lack of respect you have for the creators on your platform. Don't do it. We don't need more AI slop.

If I can’t opt out of this, I’ll be moving to YouTube or some other streaming service. I don’t consent to my face and voice being used to train AI.

Don't do any of this ai stuff. If your bosses are telling you to use it, just say you are and just make up reports supporting it. They are too brain rotted by ai to even bother,or know how, to check. This ai stuff will just come back to bite you all eventually. Hope you realize it before it's too late.

You're not training any **** AI on me and if you think this'll go quietly, we have alternative platforms. Don't think I won't pack up knowing you're feeding a slop machine that destroys the world on me.

Get this idea out of your head *yesterday*.

Nobody wants this, it's harmful to actual artists. AI features should be ENTIRELY optional and should be disabled by default!

Literally no one wants this.
Your creators use your platform to create unique and entertainment for their viewers, not turn out slop for a slop machine.

Streaming is about human connection, ai is about laziness and greed. No one sincerely enjoys aritificial ******** and its a quick drive towards killing off the authenticity of your platform, killing off even more trust than you've previously lost. Dead internet theory is real and you are choosing to make it worse.

You might as well be telling your creators to go sign an exclusivity deal with other platforms again.

We're all tired of this ai ****. Big or small. No amount of money is worth the soul of creating. Its only ceos and rich executives that push for this **** that consumers do not want.

We don't want ai. We don't want ai datacenters. We don't want our content be molested by artificial intelligence. Its soulless and does not care for human input, resources, or well being.

All known text based ai programs for example have already contributed or enabled suicides, crimes, and violence. Ai psychosis is real.
Deepfakes have ruined lives.
Spam videos on all websites have ruined peoples interest in those websites, using them less and less.

Ai bots. Are not. Human traffic. They are not a sign things are good. People hate this ****.

Don't do it. Don't shoot yourself in the foot. This is dumb.

the complete lack of respect for creators is astounding

I am getting so **** tired of all this AI getting trained off of OUR HARD WORK. And we get nothing in return for it, just so that some lazy dudes with no integrity can automatically generate streams and spread misinformation. Sometimes even with OUR faces on it... That is just not acceptable and there has never been a feature so hated by consumers yet so beloved by shareholders. I'm starting to see shareholders as empty-headed, empty-hearted lizard-people who have no interest in making this world better or supporting cool projects because it makes people happy. It's only ever about the money.

Of all the things that would actually get people to leave your platform, this is it.

Do NOT ever think about using ai EVER again

Do not f**king do that, Twitch. No one want ai and genai everywhere.

AI is problematic on so many levels, and brings absolutely nothing positive to the table... Don't even make it optional, remove it entirely.
