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.

nobody wants this. you should have to pay creators who's streams you shove through your slop machine training algorithms. if you don't pay them, why even stay on twitch when they could go to youtube or another platform where their content won't be stolen from them and used for profit without consent?

Sick of Ai and I don't want my voice to be used in any of it. I'm not your tool

After the recent Huggingface security breach and subsequent proof of AI models going totally off the rails, Sam Altman himself said AI development should be slowed down. Moral issues aside (of which I have plenty), maybe it's worth rethinking the whole implementation of these tools altogether.

On top of all of the other reasons people don't want this, I think it's a horrendous idea to enable it by default for *everyone.* I don't think the servers could take it. If they fail because of this, everyone's punished.

I will refuse to continue to stream on your platform if you do not make this opted out by default. Garbage like this should be opt-in, and the fact that it isn't is predatory to people who don't know better, and you know that for a fact. It's why companies like you do this. Do better.

NO GENERATIVE AI ON TWITCH. Stop the gross AI emotes, profile photos, banners, panels, PNGs. It’s all garbage.

Twitch hosts a lot of community-created content, content meant to foster the sorts of human relationships that 'GenAI' both feeds on and ultimately means to displace.

I stand against this force of AI. AI in general is ruining many creative fields. Personally, I work with many types of creators, as well as am one myself. A platform like Twitch that is suppose to be an inclusive place, this doesn't *feel* inclusive. Please do not ruin the space I have built.

As creative people, parents to digital artists and a video game creator, it's insulting to us to be forced to use AI. That Twitch would put us in the position where our streams puts our children's careers at risk is outrageous and offensive. We will not watch streamed content that includes AI, and we will not stream if the media we use to stream forces AI on our stream.

As a viewer I have been spending more and more time on Twitch because of the fact that its creators are real and not generating content using AI. There is enough content out there now that has been AI generated which has infiltrated the media we consume and I am sick of it. I don't want more.
The choice should be available to creators as to whether they participate and the default should absolutely be "opt out".

Hey, Twitch: Do not use streams to train AI.

I understand the want to stay 'ahead of the game' and seeing ai as that possible advancing. However, hundreds and thousands of us actively seek out platforms that do NOT use any kind of ai, is it is seen as going against human creativity, theft, and major steps backwards for all of humankind.
I feel ai should not be used at all, and if implemented, will have Twitch see massive user migration to other platforms.
However if it is going to be forced through anyhow, having it default OFF training for our comments, streams, and other places with only being turned on if the user truly wants it on, would be the best step.
Having to wade through multiple places to find where you can toggle ai off has been met with a lot of backlash on other platforms and it would be a massive shame to see it in a place many of us made home. -

I wish the world would stop forcing generative Ai on us. We want people with real talent, not computers. Ai can be great for some things but this is not one. People will leave twitch en mass

I am an illustrator, animator, and programmer. My audience is full of creatives of all types who come together to share in our skills, growth, and imagination.
AI features spit in the face of all that my community is and wants.
If AI features are forced onto us, I will have no choice but to change platforms to Youtube. Not just because I won't want those features on my content, but because they won't either.

Using a creators likeness to train generatie AI in mass against their wishes is absolutely NOT okay, and you WILL lose some really great creators on your app.

If they force AI on us, I will completely switch to YouTube and will refuse to be associated with Twitch anymore. I’m certain many others will do the same.
