don't not add ai to twitch!

Any self-respecting creative people would tell you that AI feature implementation which isn't optional and isn't opt-out by default is considered hostile towards them.

No one wants this. Forcing invasive AI surveillance on your userbase is going to destroy your platform. Don't do this.

no no no no no no we don't want AI stop pushing AI we don't want our entire lives fed into AI please stop no no no no no no

You should never force this insidious & harmful tech, which has been proven time & time, to harm the creators you're supposedly trying to "help." Creators don't want it, VIEWERS don't want it. Stop trying to appease these tech bros by implementing something the average person wants nothing to do with. It's not even profitable, you lose more by even attempting to make it catch on with your viewerbase when by now the majority already know it's a scam.

It would be much better if AI was never an option on the platform, it’s already dangerous enough that it can copy appearances and ruin others lives. To even think that it can copy your own personality thinking it’ll help in any way, shape or form on their platform defeats the purpose of putting in all of the streamers hard work and effort in their own space. That’s definitely a no go for me honestly

Gen AI related tools have no reason to exist on Twitch, we as creators don't need them... and if you absolutely 'have to' integrate them in any way (ESPECIALLY 'training') it has to be opt-out by default. The AI generated captions for clips are bad enough!

Put some of that money into improving your auto-muting system to reduce the number of false positives instead.

I will leave twitch out of spite if I get opted in by default. This **** is theft!

No generative AI of any sort should be added to any part of Twitch, at any time, for any reason. This is ******** on the creators who do the actual work.

I’ve streamed and watched on your platform for over 10 years and I swear to god that I will never visit Twitch or spend a single cent on it again if you implement any AI features. I won’t even watch Twitch vods on YouTube. I would sooner see this platform die than watch it scrape from the creators that made it successful to feed some AI slop.

Stop trying to make AI on twitch a thing. Any feature like those should be purely *opt-IN* and turned off by default for everyone, if Twitch insists on spending it's money that way.

AI features should be optional, ideally those features would never be implemented but I know once a decision like this is made, there's very little going back. If so, this should never be opt-in by default. People should be opted out and people who want to participate can chose to do so, but streamers should never be forced to have their contents fed to an AI before they can chose to opt-out.

Don’t you people have enough stolen content to train your sloppy clankers? STOP! IT!

No.

Even before it was public knowledge that GenAl is a disastrous fad with horrific environmental effects, it has already becoming exceedingly clear that it is also a worthless money sink that fails to return on investment - an investment Twitch seems keen on practicing sunk-cost-fallacy to recoup. They will not succeed.

The decline in your user base after adding GenAl features is both palpable and visible for those with eyes to see. Continuing your present path with them enables by default (or with them included at all, really) will be disastrous for your fiscal standings and your user base. Your best shot at beginning to correct your course is by opting users out by default.

I DO NOT WANT AI ON TWITCH! I DO NOT CONSENT TO HAVING MY STREAMS USED TO TRAIN AI!

This might be one of the biggest mistakes, and yall have made PLENTY, yall have ever pulled! Users do not want your AI slop and we definitely do not want our streams used to train it. If you go through with this I will completely give up on Twitch, end all of my subs, and take my streaming, viewing, AND money elsewhere! DO NOT DO THIS!

If GenAI is added to the platform I will be leaving. I do not want AI at all, and I do not want my content being trained off of. My voice and brand are mine, not someone else's to steal.

Generative AI should be completely optional and opt-out be default. Artists make up a huge portion of Twitch streamers and viewers and forcing their work into gen AI is shameful.

I would not like a machine to steal what I do to try and make a cheap copy of myself for profit while destroying the planet thank you very much

I'd be happier if you didn't go the AI route at all -- it's a dead end, it's theft, it's a losing prospect overall -- but at least don't foist it on us by default.
