The fact that we’ve gotten so far into this year, and so far after the AI boom and yet this idea that “generative AI is good actually” is still so prevalent shows that you don’t listen to the massive community you have grossed. It’s embarrassing. You are Twitch, you are one of the biggest streaming platforms, but you act like you aren’t with these bond headed ideas. Reverse any AI features that might be in production. Do better

More than that, being opted out should also mean that the AI tools are not listening and cannot listen to/analyze the content of the stream on which they're disabled; currently this is not the case.

For example, it's been shown and demonstrated that even when a feature such as AI Stream Summaries are disabled that the AI system is still analyzing the content of the channel. This was demonstrated by PirateSoftware (and posted on his YouTube channel) by disabling the feature, then spending around 10 minutes discussing the test and other topics, and after the test period he re-enabled it ...and seconds later it created a summary of the stream which included everything they'd talked about the previous five minutes or so.

Please provide proof to content creators on Twitch that when the AI tools are disabled they are in fact disabled and not merely silent.

Individual users should have the option to opt out of AI data-collection even if the creator of a stream has it enabled.

Generative AI provides absolutely zero benefit and the work streamers put in should never be used to train models. Streamers are people, the work they put into their streams is a human endeavour, and it should remain as such.

Generative AI is theft. Generative AI is plagiarism.

This platform is built on human creativity. There is simply no excuse to add a feature that is exclusively designed to steal and profit off of the hard work of those that made your platform what it is. At the very least, a feature this disgusting and invasive should be off by default.

Twitch at its very inception was made to be a hub where people share their passions, whether that's for gaming, visual art, writing, cooking, or other forms of discussion. A platform by the people for the people, as they say.
All this AI craze has done in recent years is turn genuine passion and creativity into stolen data meant to vomit out very subpar products (and that's putting it as nicely as I could) purely for the sake of profit. These decisions should have never even left the drafts folder, much less be entertained as a possibility.

For all this talk about detecting and eliminating bot viewers, this will only start a wave of bot creators that will drown out what little discoverability and sense of community that's left on this platform. The first best decision is to never implement all these data-scraping programs to begin with, and the second best decision is to keep them opt-out as a default.

AI needs to be stopped, especially big companies forcing it onto people, and stealing their content

I can't even begin to count the amount of people here on twitch, myself included who are so very against AI and how it is used. This should not be a feature in the first place.

Twitch is a place for people to supporter their favourite creators and not to supporter/fund some sort of A.I training system. It's disgusting to think that one or several twitch higher ups think this is a good idea.

Either don't implement this idea or for whatever reason allow us to OPT OUT from the get go. If that can't be done then it was a good run on twitch but I will very much go elsewhere and take my community with me.

Imagine believing that a move like this will bring more creators to Twitch and not push them away. Further, regurgitated AI Slop will never be the future of art. Do better, Twitch.

I will rip my community out by the roots and go somewhere else if this actually gets pushed through, I and many other artists can always go someplace else

AI should't use like this and should not be force onto us not only that but AI shown to steal and ruin people lifes.i would highly ask these who are behide this not to go through this decision for the sake of the creators on here.

The use of A.I. to be used to train on peoples work is already abhorrent, making it opt in by default is unacceptable. Please let creators opt out from the start

You should alreqdy know how unpopular this is. Making it default to automatically be on will risk losing revenue, not to mention damage to the brand, and however much you think you're going to be able to sell the Generative Program data for? It isn't going to make up for whatever losses you incur. Not to mention, poisoning the planet.
Tell the higher-ups that think they know what will make the money, that this ain't it, chief.

Please at the very least, let us opt out of this. Several artists on Twitch will leave if you force opt them in to allow AI to train on them and their art.

Generative AI is morally disgusting and forcing it on us or training it off of us is absolutely vile. Optional and opt-out is the minimum, but it shouldn’t even be an option in the first place.

Let's not train something that infringes in creativity and individuality (AI) on a platform that promotes such things. Youll be stealing people's voices, aspects of their personality, clips of memories they've made all for more slop that will be used against them. Theres a reason AI video generators have been removed. Don't enforce them again.

Leave AI from this platform!! These platform belongs to streamers and their viewers, who are 100% human content!! AI here doesn't have place!!

I don't believe AI has any place in streamin and supporting the content creators we like. If anything, if will force many of us who want nothing to do with AI to no long support those we do want to give money to, to escape giving any money benefiting an AI platform.

The customers will be displeased if their favorite streamers abandon the platform in protest to being used to train ai and their money will go elsewhere.
Who will remain to watch your ads!?

I would be very displeased to have my content to be used to train AI: We are already doing much for the platform and we need to be respected. We don't want the younger generation to be made by fools to be enslaved by AI and those features should not be used, or opt-out by default.
