Everyone involved at Twitch AND Amazon knows AI is ultimately a horrible idea, but are attempting it anyway to earn a quick buck before the bubble bursts and the environment is destroyed. Let's just skip AI features, yeah? There's plenty of other ways to improve Twitch, and anything to do with AI ain't it. People already have to do tons of corrections on AI captions, nobody likes AI auto clips, nobody I know likes the AI summary descriptions. There's zero need to do any sort of "training" AI off of streams. Only negatives can come from it. Flip the script and be the good guys in the battle against AI ruining and slopifying everything - stop implementing new AI things, don't use people's data to train any, and remove what's been added.

I will leave twitch if this happens.

AI literally helps no one except the terrible awful people pushing it, it doesn't help streamers, it doesn't help viewers. It doesn't help ANYONE. Reconsider this absolutely objectively stupid decision.

I've been a viewer on twitch since about 2015 and a streamer on twitch since around 2018.

If AI features are forced on viewers and streamers, I will leave the platform. Ideally there will be no Generative AI involved at all, but with the recently added Auto-Captions feature for clips that ship has sailed.

IF Generative AI features will be added, they MUST be optional and Opt-Out by default. I do not want my voice or creative efforts to be stolen and used to train a soulless machine to generate profit for shareholders.

If AI features are added and cannot be opted out of, I will reluctantly move to another platform entirely.

Please listen to the thousands of voices of the creators on your platform opposing this decision.

If this is not optional and default opt-in I will switch plattforms and knowing how many others feel about that they will too.
Things like this are killing twitch.

AI is not needed and is an excuse to force values that your users do not agree with.
It is lazy and irresponsible while more users are feeling isolated and attacked for political leanings they either do or don't have from an executive that is putting retired **** stars on a priority versus average respectable users.
It would be better if users could trust the platform honestly. No AI should be implemented until moral and service improves.

If AI features are implemented AT ALL, many streamers will flee the platform. If AI features are implemented as requiring a manual Opt-Out, many MORE streamers will flee the platform, myself included.

DO NOT IMPLEMENT AI FEATURES. NOBODY WITH ANY INTELLIGENCE WANTS THEM, EVEN THE BRAINDEAD INVESTORS ARE RUNNING AWAY FROM AI. WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO PUT IT INTO TWITCH.

No AI at all, I Do NOT CONSENT

Don't use AI, at all. It's evil. It's unnecessary. It destroys our very basis of life.
"Only when the last tree has been cut down, the last fish been caught, and the last stream polluted, will we realize we cannot eat money."

No thank you Twitch, heck, just DON'T do it at all!

If the AI feature is not optional I will simply not be streaming on twitch nor will I be watching streams on twitch. Period. Done.

Ni opción ni nada. No la quiero. No quiero ninguna opción relacionada con inteligencia artificial en esta red ni en ninguna otra.

It's hard to overstate how much I'd like to use MUCH STRONGER language for this, but I'm doing my best to be diplomatic. This is a horrendous decision that will only harm your entire userbase and erode their trust in you. If these "features" come to pass I will immediately be looking for alternative streaming platforms outside of twitch, as I have absolutely no interest in having my hard work scraped by these algorithms. The person who suggested this idea and all those who carried it forward should have their positions and authority re-evaluated, because it's hard to imagine a more damaging course of action for the Twitch brand or those who place their trust in it.

Terrible idea, I’ll cancel my prime if they do that

AI will not help streamers or viewers at all and will only exist to serve the CEOs instead. It will not boost viewership, it will not make people want to watch, it will not help with scheduling, it will not increase bandwidth, the bill to operate it will be handed to both streamers and viewers resulting in an increase in sub prices and deeper cuts into earnings. Scraping data from larger streams just to, what, make an AI-generated streamer that tries to appeal to everyone?
But it doesn't matter what we, your actual audience, wants. The techbros have already made up their minds and will find some way to weasel it into the backend.

Opt out of this Twitch, stop shilling for AI. It damages the environment and it steals people's content. I am ENRAGED and DISAPPOINTED that would would stoop this low. Though you shill for amazon too so.

This will make a lot of streamers lose their income some who do this as a JOB. If you really cared you would turn this down for the good of the streamers. If you have a heart..

If even one pixel of my streams is used to train the slop machine, I'm taking my business elsewhere.

If AI features are forced on Twitch streamers or viewers, I will leave the platform permanently, and publicly campaign for every single streamer, game developer, and stream fan I know to leave it.

Do not engage with AI features now, or ever.

Please don't put AI. Please

Yes. Users should be asked consent, if any of their content is used to train/build an AI model.

Just forcibly doing it, without asking anyone. Also brings up several copyright concerns. Another thing that AI training companies have willfully neglected.

The decision to implement this AI bs.. Can't write the best descriptive word here.. Is profoundly stupid and detrimental.

But since the world is run by moneyd morons, we'll just have to vote with our wallets. And people way smarter than the average CEO to build a better streaming platform.

I digressed a bit there, let's recap.

******** with your AI.
