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.

I was considering coming back to streaming once my situation improves, but now absolutely not.
This is such a significant change that Twitch really should pay out what's owed to everyone regardless of whether they've earned the minimum so we can leave without them stealing our earnings as well as our content.

The AI train is already crashing. Don't get on board.

If Twitch does not allow creators to opt-out of AI features FULLY, as in denying any permission for them to train my content for their AI systems- I WILL quit this platform entirely, full-stop. Please, be sure to vote and help give streamers their rightful choice and control over their own broadcasts. Please and thank you!

The features are unneeded and using your users as training data as default shows a true lack of respect for the people that make you money. Make this something to be optional and only if people explicately want it.

I cannot stress enough how much I have no interest in being reduced into training data

I absolutely hate anything AI related and this would be crossing the line for me with this platform, you've already tried new things and they've failed before but this time it seems as though we don't have a choice when the users should have that say in the first place.

Honestly, this would be the death of twitch to me.
All the VTubers, whose artists are against the usage of AI for the images, wouldnt be allowed to stream on Twitch anymore.
I dont want to give Twitch my Face, if they then can use it for AI. So no webcam streams anymore.
This is just disgusting.
All the arts, crafting and making streams would be gone...Bruvmigos, no one wants these features... why does everyone keep pushing them on us :/ pwease go away maaan

Could y'all stop trying to hitch your cart to a dying horse? It’s like all you companies are on a speed run to see who can lose the most money fastest. Nothing is inevitable, just ask people who bought in to NFTs. Stop stealing from creators to make subpar versions of things humans are already incredible at. At least the robber barons of old built museums and libraries…

Twitch and Amazon be like: "hey, you know that massive push-back against any and all AI programs... that won't happen to us, right? We can just farm them with no backlash, right?"
VOTE. FOR. THIS. OPT. OUT. NOW.

twitch we DO NOT want ai being trained form our streams please, twitch,the art category and vtubers makes up a fair amount of your userbase and they are very much against and everybody knows it(if you are not living under a rock that is),so I dont think doing this is a very good idea right

This is a recipe for losing everything Twitch is made of, maybe don't board the sinking AI ship and instead implement tools the community actually needs

Making it optional/opt-out isn't enough. It shouldn't be there in the first place.

An AI system should not be implemented at all. If it goes ahead, you will very likely lose a good number of channels. Some might delete their accounts, others will likely just leave and never log in again.
As of posting, there are about 3600 users telling you to, at minimum, allow people to opt out. The comments, including this one, are telling you to take the AI you want to implement and shove it where the sun won't shine. Is this everyone on Twitch? No. But the moment more people find out, there will be more that say "No!" to your AI and leave the platform.
You want to improve Twitch for creators? Don't do this. It won't improve things, only make it worse for them, and your bank balance.

AI is antithetical to the very idea of live streaming, communication and community, and these things are the heart and foundation of Twitch. Please let creators decide their own fate, the fate and use of their content, and how they relate to AI

This feature you're planning is incredibly dangerous and nobody wants to have AI slop shoved in their face, if this was optional and opt-out by default that'd be awesome, but ideally it'd be best to not implement the feature in general. Twitch is meant for having real interactions with real people as they stream video games and chat, this idea is against this philosophy and would alienate so many users, both streamers and chatters.

More than happy to remove myself from the platform. It has done nothing to help me so far.
