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.

Once again, Amazon shoving stuff down our throats that we don't want and didn't ask for. Once again, I have to say that if Twitch/Amazon doesn't allow for opt-out, I will find another platform.
I do not consent to my voice, likeness, or content being used to train AI datasets. Never will. -

Pointless waste of money feature. I do not want it.
It will make me want to interact with chat less. -

Useless feature that takes me away from the stream. I'm not there to know 100% of what's happening all the time, I'm there to watch in the moment.

AI is abhorrent, and I’ll be cancelling my subs until I hear this petition is being acted on.

I do not want anything to do with ai, I am an outspoken critic of ai. My streams will regularly discuss why reliance on ai and ai psychosis is a problem that needs to be addressed. I find the push for ai use insulting and dangerous. If there is not an opt out option this may make me reconsider using twitch at all

One actual important point is that Streamers make mistakes all the time and sometimes autofill can show things like emails or maybe they accidentally say an address on stream and then realize what they did and delete the VOD after, but if AI is scanning every little thing, then that information gets scraped. It's very dangerous, especially for vulnerable streamers to have everything go into AI without an opt-out option.

For anyone that watches the AI debate, this should be a no brainer. Popular opinion of AI is that the average person DOES NOT LIKE AI. The only people who do support AI are corporate investors or "tech bros" that are looking for anyway to under cut costs, or people of questionable morals that do not mind theft until it happens to them.
The option to use AI should ALWAYS be just that: an option and not forced.

I should have the choice if AI is used for my channel or not. I don't want to just be forced into something I never asked to have.

Definitely think this feature shouldnt exist, but if they force it, allowing for Opt Out by default would 100% be helpful. I dont want AI anything shoved in viewers faces on my channel, like what if it causes my viewership to decrease?? I just dont see the point of adding AI when it still has a majority negative connotation.

I don't want ai in any part of my user experience as a streamer OR a viewer, it should be able to be opted out on both ends

If I see one of these mid stream summaries in my stream, I am done. Period. I will not seek to grow on twitch at all if this **** can't be turned off.

I know several creators that have already quit or are considering quitting streaming on Twitch because of this, please for the love of the people that make you money, make it optional and off by default

Please at least add an option to disable it or opt out, thank you.

Nobody asked for this, nobody wants this, and you're just spending money on something that isn't going to be helpful at all.
This sunk-cost pit that "ai" companies have dug themselves into trying desperately to find any possible use case for a technology they've invested in is shameful: cut your losses and stop spending money on the bottomless "ai" money pit. -

This is a feature that no one asked for and no one wants. To force its use only drives your users further away, whether they be creators or viewers. AI has poor capability to parse questions and only gives answers based on it data-set, which the controlling companies have been poor at curating. This means it is wrong as often as it is right. A magic 8-ball would be cheaper and have less detrimental environmental effects. We do not want it. It is irresponsible to use it. Please correct this failure.

I dont want AI in my stream or anywhere around it, especially not telling my viewers inaccurate or plain incorrect summaries. No thank you!

I don’t want this feature, first and foremost because if I join a stream and don’t know what’s going on, asking in chat takes seconds and anyone can answer. Secondly, AI is destroying the planet and our ability to think.
