We are here to support the people on your platform, and by no means are we going to stand by while you steal their likeness, their blood, sweat, and tears poured into the creations they make and share with us. Using AI to scrape their data by default without any change in the compensation provided to your creators, as well as defaulting the function to on when you have a stranglehold on their livelihood just because you can, is despicable. You only force the option because you know they're going to say no. You know we are going to stand against the theft of their content, their art, and the times we as a community spend with these creators. Implementation of AI is an attack on your creators and their communities are not standing for it. We should have no AI here, but if we can't have none, at a bare minimum, all AI functionality should be optional only, and all use of personal data should require consent and compensation.

Leave AI out all together! I don't want it anywhere near my streams or my twitch creator! It's rude and unfair to the creators who use you're platform! Don't even make it optable, just leave out all together! Get out Ai, leave twitch streamers and their content alone!

Generative AI is inherently anti-creator and anti-creativity. It's very nature takes from human creativity and produces soulless imitations. AI use in more technical senses is also a growing concern when it comes to privacy. This potential implementation is an insult to all the hard working an creative folks that have brought their talents to your platform. AI would not enhance anyone's experience on Twitch, it would devalue and demoralize the very creators that have made this platform what it is today. Respect what they have created and grown here, change course, or there won't be any creators or an audience for them left on Twitch.

To any Twitch staff in a position to move the needle: Look around you. Look at the backlash this faces all over the internet. Look at Google sinking such obscene money into its own Wrong Answer Machine (Gemini) to the point it's reported its first quarter of negative cash flow in the time since going public. I realize mentioning the ecological impact of data centers is pointless because the motile feculence we call "billionaires" care about nothing existing outside their own sociopathy, but surely even they can see something that will hemorrhage money and customers as the business threat it is.

Not only is using streams to train generative AI aimed to help billionaires make more money and waste resources that will contribute to climate change, it's effectively without anyone's consent and the already pitiful amount of revenue streamers make on the platform won't increase or profit as a result of this. This doesn't benefit the viewer or the streamer and is unethical. Your platform has royally failed and has completely lost its purpose if it can't uphold that. You will lose real humans and replace them with enshittified bots that lie, which apparently seems to be the aim for a lot of companies for some reason. If this happens I will delete my account and urge everyone else to do the same.

I will delete my account if AI is forced onto me.

**** AI. If you guys add AI to twitch we will all leave.

AI does not have a place on Twitch. The auto mod feature is as far as AI should be allowed to go on the website. As both a streamer and a viewer, Twitch streams are purely human. The streamers, the viewers, the energy and creativity. AI could never replicate that, and trying to make it happen will destroy Twitch's relationship with its users, and drive them away. Implementing AI would be monumentally disrespectful to its users, and an incredibly stupid decision overall

Rather than that, don't add the AI features at all!

First Ditto, now Twitch. Who knows what is gonna happen with the content industry. Nothing is gonna be human anymore. Just the idea in general that this is an option is a red flag.

Implementing AI in any capacity ruins so much passion and creativity for the platform if they are forced on us. AI should and always should be OPTIONAL. Never something that's forced onto people. Please never make these a AI options a default setting.

As a long time viewer of twitch and other streaming platforms. I have seen highs and lows of twitch. I think this idea is horrid. Streamers work hard to keep their content safe,fresh and new and if we use training from streamers for any type of AI it’s basically saying you don’t care how hard they worked. Do better twitch.

Absolutely not!
As an artist, even a beginner, I don't want AI to be trained by my artworks or my voice or anything else I do on stream.

This is very disapointing, Twitch should advocate for the creators, protect the originality in the platform instead of investing in the slop threatening it's existance in the first place...

We do not want AI Gen here or anywhere else, and I clearly do not want to train it with my contents. I'd rather stop using Twitch instead. F*ck AI Gen and f*ck your greed.

I haven't stream in a long time because life got in the way. But all the people I support are artists, ARTISTS that have put BLOOD AND SWEAT, that have given up on any other type of job to dedicate themselves solely to an artist career, the same ARTISTS that have BUILD Twitch, the ones that create assets, emotes, banners, art for everyone else, they had make what Twitch it's today for artists and non-artists alike. Generative content is HARMFUL for artists, for everyone it sucks the hardwork of everyone and put it's on a golden plate for the inmoral people to use. By allowing this you are DESTROYING the PEOPLE THE ARTISTS who build you up. This is a new low

Easily one of the dumbest and things you can do to Twitch. It has made both Deviantart and Twitter worse, why do you want to do the same thing? Be better then that and don't use AI for nothing.

TAKE OUT THE AI COMPLETELY
GET RID OF THAT GARBAGE IT IS DISGUSTING

If AI tries to train itself off of independent creators and people just having fun then it defeats the point of AI altogether: why would a computer program need to have fun instead of PEOPLE??? If we want to be here and have these communities on Twitch, then we’ll do so for our own sake, not for some pointless training system

Generative AI is an insult to basically any creator, in addition to all the massive problems it causes just to run the AI itself in the Datacenters. No creator that is passionate about their work wants it to be used for genAI, so the best thing to do is not even waste your money on starting with it.
