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.

The best decision is to completely ditch Gen A.I and work on service stability and open more server centers. The second best decision is to make A.I features opt-out by default.

No one wants this, do not pretend that we want this. No one asked for this, do not so much as suggest that anyone asked for this.
WE HAVE ENOUGH PROBLEMS ON THIS PLATFORM AS IT IS, WE WOULD LIKE TO PREVENT THE ADDITION OF TEN TIMES MORE OF THEM!!!

AI has no place in creative fields. Its "product" is built on the theft of real creators' works. Keep any and all AI features optional, and make the default state be NOT using or contributing to them if they are going to force it's introduction to the platform, though the VAST majority of users (both creators and audience members) would prefer it not be introduced or included at all.

I'd rather have no AI features at all, every single APP/Website I've seen add AI is MUCH worse and less usable for it, to the point of embarassment. But if you absolutely have to ad it make it opt out by default

We do not want AI! No one here wants AI! I will hope all creators on Twitch post somewhere else where AI isn't used and take my business there if this is implemented. I will report any use of AI. This is not a threat but a promise!

Make it that you have to sign up for any ai contributions. By default it should assume no one wants it.

GenAI and AI training is deeply unpopular. Opt out by default. Stick to it. Better yet: don't waste your money launching this service.

If you absolutely have to add that AI garbage to Twitch, then make it Opt Out by default. Nobody wants this junk.
"Twitch is built on real experiences, with real people, real gameplay, real art, and real interaction. Building AI into it makes all users question if any of it is real anymore. It poisons the brand, while jacking up the price. If Twitch wants to be relevant, it must hold fast to 100% real interactions only, and value what streamers do enough to guarantee that they will remain real, and impossible to replicate. If AI is baked in, the platform will wither and die, and everyone will migrate to streaming elsewhere. It is a poor move, both ethically and financially to add these AI features. Please reconsider, and choose what has made Twitch the go-to for streaming: authenticity."

In addition to this, I've been reporting / giving feedback on AI promotional ads run on Twitch as being irrelevant to my interests and sometimes even scams. In fact at this moment there's a Meta ad running on Twitch that isn't even promoting any specific product, it's basically a political propaganda ad saying they're going to keep doing AI in non-specific ways. We don't want this stuff and will be loud about it.

I will find somewhere else to stream if my streams are used for AI training modules. AI does not belong in creative spaces.

The Dammitch said it best, regarding the platform itself, "Twitch is built on real experiences, with real people, real gameplay, real art, and real interaction. Building AI into it makes all users question if any of it is real anymore. It poisons the brand, while jacking up the price. If Twitch wants to be relevant, it must hold fast to 100% real interactions only, and value what streamers do enough to guarantee that they will remain real, and impossible to replicate.

Also, AI and their data centers are a blight on the natural world and humanity. Do the right thing for us, not your wallet. Leave AI out entirely.

No to AI. It needs to be opt out default and that you can choose to opt in. If they force this on us I will be leaving the platform.

How about we don't?? Even with all the other changes I dislike to the platform, this one WILL make me leave Twitch for good. No site that forces me to participate in generative AI training will keep me as a user.

This will run so many people off the platform, including myself. I stream to entertain and enjoy the community I built, not train some dumb AI with my likeness. I refuse to give ANY AI my respect or attention.
