AI is terrible, everyone hates it. Forcing it into everything will bankrupt you and you will deserve it.

Twitch has been a pretty big part of my daily life for over a decade now and if y'all start forcing streamers to train generative AI I will actually have to take my viewership/streaming elsewhere. I don't want to, but there are alternatives, and many will start seeking them out if this goes through

are you for real right now? going to steal our faces, our voices, our whole selves from us to run through your nasty generative ai just to scrape a few more cents from us that you didn’t have before? how much more money do you need from us amazon? how much more do you need to milk from your creators and your users?

I cannot even begin to explain why this is a bad idea. Not only is this a legal nightmare in the making, it is also just not a very smart move in ANY way. AI features having the opt in or opt out option is irrelevant to the main issue here: exploiting a large community-driven creator-focused platform for artificially generated content that benefits no one except those who wish to financially make up for- no, not even just financially gain- the losses that generative AI has brought upon them and their company. I do not care if "AI is here to stay" or if those who oppose it are labeled as "fearful of change"- the bottom line is that exploiting and stealing (even with """"consent"""") is awful. Though, I suppose most who shill Generative AI and AI powered features don't care as long as it makes them money which- in most cases- it can hardly do even that. So Twitch, Amazon, or whoever has the pleasure of reading all of the backlash and comments to a decision such as this: Do not do this. Thanks!

AI scraping your platform's streams serves no purpose other than ******* off your userbase. Just stick to selling all our data for pocket change like you already do.

Generative AI is a massive blight on our environment and our society, stealing from the creatives without so much as a second thought. The implementation of generative AI features is something that you'll find to be in diametric opposition to the creative and expressive nature of streaming, and is not something that should be implemented in any capacity. However, should Twitch choose to implement generative AI features that scrape streamers content for "training", all users should be opted out by default. Every person should have the opportunity and freedom to choose how their creations and likenesses are used, and not have to find out, possibly after the fact, that they need to go toggle yet another option hidden in their user/channel settings. If generative AI features are implemented with no option to fully and completely opt out of my channel, streams, and clips being used to train or generate content via these features, I will leave this platform.

keep this **** ai **** well and far away from twitch. im done being polite about this garbage being shoved into everything everywhere

Please... just don't. We're so tired of people trying to steal from us to gain. AI has been proven to be more damaging than it's worth. Think of your creators and please respect what they create and what makes them unique. Celebrate it it. Don't take from them what makes them special and put it in a machine that produces a half-baked imitation.

I will never watch a single stream again if streamers can't opt out of 100% of these "features".

I'mma need you all to stop stealing from living folks every 5 seconds for AI training. You will kill Twitch doing this. There is literally no need to do this there is zero reason you should be stealing peoples likenesses from their stream to train your plagiarism bots.

Optional and opt-in is the only choice. Any other option is an attempt to steal the content of your content base and hope people do not notice.

The community is overwhelmingly hostile to the push for AI technology is for a reason. It is deeply exploitative, pushed without consent, and destructive to creative industries.

I've used picarto.tv before, it's a great platform. I will happily go back if my consent is not considered. Honestly, if AI features are added at ALL, I will go back, and I'm taking all of my subscribers with me.

This platform is made for creators. We don't want some emotionless tech company trying to rip off of our hard work without compensation so they can train some AI that nobody wants.

AI is going to cost you your userbase, full stop. Develop some degree of logic, critical thinking, and/or empathy.

No, no, no. Don't even give an opt-out version - we don't want AI on the platform, full stop. We don't need the sapping of human creativity or human likenesses and behaviors.

dear god please do not ever use people's streams to train AI

Absolutely do NOT add any AI features NOR take anyone's streams as data for AI training. This is BS.

This is a one way ticket to killing your platform. I'm just as content doing offline streams and uploading to youtube, streaming to youtube or another site, or streaming in discord if this is implemented, especially if it is turned on by default. AI is awful and does not have a place here, don't allow this. It's also ironic that we will get struck with copyright on music but this seems to get a pass when it's doing even worse things than simply playing a song (or in many cases playing an actual game and the game being struck for music).

If Twitch does decide to train genAI with streaming data with no option to opt out of ALL of it, I will never stream on Twitch again.

Forcing streamers to train AI will actively discourages streamers from streaming and discourage new people from becoming streamers. I know that I personally, who has considered the possibility of streaming on Twitch before, would not stream of twitch if I knew that my streams would train AI without my permission.
