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.

Absolutely not. I don't want AI on the site, nobody I know who uses Twitch regardless of whether they stream or not wants to have AI on the site, DO NOT DO THIS. FULL STOP.

Horrific. I don't consent to my content being used in such a way. I demand it be optional and turned off by default.

If I had my say I'd say NO AI at all, but I guess otherwise at least respecting your decade+ user/creator base's rights would be better than just forcing it on us wholesale.

Twitch is already losing market to short-span content platforms like TikTok. Be unique in the current landscape by actually embracing human creativity, and people will repay your respect of their endeavors with kindness.

I am sick of gen AI and all the ways companies and corporations have been trying to shoehorn it into their products. It's an immediate turn off for me and has only made me lose interest in any thing that uses it.
GenAI is not a "tool" that belongs in creative spaces.

Once again this is an AI thing nobody wants or has asked for, being forced on the users because the people pushing it cannot make a case for it. You're gonna lose a lot of people if you go through with this.

Hey this is severely disgusting. Get generative AI away from creators at all costs. Ai doesnt have the rights to my image and voice and I want to keep it that way

I hate AI and everyone who uses it. It's literal brain poison that makes you dumber and drives you into becoming detached from reality.

Ai has no place on a platform for creative minds. I'm sure the shareholders will disown twitch at the rate it's losing revenue once they see more artists and creators leave for other stream platforms.
Please opt out of this discission.

My content is MINE. Not yours. If you want to train GenAI, you best get to making something yourself. DO NOT implement this.

Nobody wants this. Nobody asked for this. Tell Bezos and the board to shove this idea so far up their **** cavities that they have to chew

Not only do many people not consent to have their information and self used for AI training.
On top of that the risk of litteral Copyright liability on twitch is huge. Including for what is being shown on stream. You might want to use opt in only, or you may as well close down.
If you want to get slammered like Suno for example in Germany, then good luck.I'd rather have no AI at all. So many of us are tired and sick of the slop machine.
But no consent is no consent. (You'd also break the law in Denmark for example)People their voice, and themselves are their only, to decide what will happen with them. It is their intelectual right. Stop.

Lets think about this, bezos. You like money, right? You like it more than you like human rights, we know this. But you know what will make it so you get less money?
******* off the streamers who generate the most revenue for you.
Go on. Go make a list of the top 100 moneymakers. You don't need to share it, this is for you to figure things out. Go through that list, and figure out how many DESPISE AI.
You and I both know the smart thing for you to do right now is shut your mouth, back out of this deal with ai you have, and let the money roll in. There is nothing to be gained here, and so much to lose.

I don't think there's any ethical use case for GenAI in Twitch streams. I realise your product managers have probably all been given a directive from higher up to shove AI in there somehow, no matter how goofy, but please push back on behalf of the actual users of your platform or you'll end up with bot streams streaming to to bots.

I don't want AI at ALL, NOTHING AI should be implemented; nevermind the fact that there's literally nothing useful that could be added, AI is unethical, stealing from the hard work of others, is harmful to the environment, and is very widely disliked. If you ignore all that and insist on adding AI, we as creators should have full control over whether or not it is engaged on our streams. Anything less than that is telling us you intend to steal from streamers, and we should actively leave Twitch for other platforms.

AI is such a miserable "tool" that only takes, and gives nothing of value in return. It shouldn't be allowed, let alone welcomed, on the platform. We're CREATORS. We don't need an AI to do our passion for us.

AI is a failed experiment that only treads on because of sunk cost fallacy. You can't cruise tickets to the Titanic on us, we already see that the ship is torn in half.

This is a terrible idea and is going to lead to the death of the platform when game devs ban games from being streamed so they're not scraped, and artists leave to avoid being scraped.

This needs to be 'Opt-In'! Not 'Opt-out' by default!
A.I. will not help the platform at all! Far too many things are talked about on Twitch every day to the point where the A.I. will not only lose all nuance on every topic discussed no matter how 'distinguished' or 'intelligent' you may believe it to be!
All that's gonna' happen is it's going to be easier for misinformation about the people that stream on the platform, harming the people who prove to be the whole reason why people come to the platform in the first place!I can assure you with absolutely certainty that the vast majority of both viewers & streamers "DO NOT WANT" any AI or AI-Powered tools on the platform!
I do not consent to any of my streams, ideas, opinions, or content being fed to any A.I. what-so-ever!
Forcing any integration or inclusion of A.I. on the platform will very likely result in a mass exodus of both streamers & viewers!
Aswell for who's left will likely be driven to another platform & benefitting other companies the moment they understand what their content is feeding & doing! The inclusion of A.I. on such a platform is the biggest red-flag I could think of!There's no possible gain that would overweigh the colossal, absolute damage that it would do to the platform!
If they are so insensitive & callous to even include such a feature, users & streamers should be 'opted-out' by default & should always be allowed to 'opt-out' if they are ever unluckily ignorant enough to 'opt in'.
Integration will only prove a mighty failure.I feel like you guys should know how the masses feel about A.I.
I hope you understand how much twitch will be shooting itself in the foot for including this.From the masses we would very much
implore you to reconsider such a catastrophic idea!Trust me, even the most popular & committed of streamers will be 'delighted' even, to start from the 'ground-up' to avoid being on a platform with such a feature.

If AI features are not optional, and not opt-out by default, that will be a betrayal of all Twitch creators, without whom the platform is nothing. Twitch HQ must reconsider.
