Forced AI inclusion would make me cancel subs and leave the platform.

The opt-out should not just be for creators, but for all users; so they can guarantee none of their comments will be used as training data when they comment in others' streams.

I thought nothing could convince me to end my Twitch career, until they started pushing AI with no option to opt out.

Nothing would make other livestreaming platforms happier than seeing AI features forced onto Twitch users. They'll get so many new users who are leaving Twitch to avoid that ****.

Nobody wants AI. Period.

AI as it is now, will not work. To many including Twitch, see AI as a way to replace people. But no matter what, it's a tool that requires people to guide. So yes, I agree, AI optional and opt-out by default.

Better yet, don't implement it at all--don't waste your money on a bubble. And it's also just wrong; see all the other comments for a variety of examples of why This Is Very Wrong.

All streamers on this platform should not have to find a part of themselves being copied by an algorithm without their consent. ANY Generative AI features should not even be part of the system, but if you must, give us the choice and ABSOLUTELY MAKE IT OPT-OUT BY DEFAULT.

Maybe fix your moderation before ruining all of your streamers efforts ? If you continue that way, people will stop using you and you could say goodbye to any revenus you get from us.
Stop using AI, humans can always do better.

down with AI!

How dare you wanting to use us for generative ai training?
Find some common sense, would you want someone to train on you without consent. Stealing your identity and content.
Do better Twitch, make the right decision and discard these ideas

Considering how different every twitch streamer is. Having something like this is honestly horrid to have AI trained from this, plus if you do watch streams, you should know how out-of-pocket some streamers can be. I'm not sure you even want this implimented. If you do implement it, it should be defaulted "off"

Twitch and Amazon need to contact Infosys on proper responsible AI training and usage. Anything else is reckless.

Besides the incredibly harmful impact that genAI has on the environment, people's health, hardware prices, energy consumption and, soon enough the incredible economic cratering that the bubble will leave behind once it blows up, genAI also is incredibly harmful to creation.

It's theft. It's mashing together patterns with no soul.

And on top of that, genAI-based translation, predictive text, etc. are also very often not only wrong, but can also be harmful to the person that they are slapped onto.

If you MUST try to be a Fad-Train Andy, allow streamers and viewers to opt out of AI features. It's not popular with people, especially in a more tech-savvy space like live streaming. Why do you think Microsoft, Google, Apple etc. are forcing AI features into everyone's face? They know nobody wants these features, but they have to justify the billions of dollars they spent on this garbage to the shareholders.

Don't be blind to the needs of the people who made you the company you are, to the needs and wants of your partners and viewers.

Don't bring genAI onto this platform. It will only hurt you.

AI is expensive and don't need to be everywhere!
Who is paying for that?
Who is responsible to wasted resources?!

You gonna force more commercials and triple subscription prices, while keeping share for streamers even smaller?????!

AI on twitch is a waste!
And twitch already is having problem with money...

JUST STOP!

Do you really think we'd consent to ourselves, our whole BEINGS, to be used in Generative AI training?! Would YOU be okay with that? Using art for AI training is one thing. Using human beings is on another level. It's worse than worst. It's evil, it's disgusting. Don't do this. It will ruin your platform more than you even realize.

Definitely don't want AI imposed on Twitch, we should 💯 have the choice to opt in or out

Twitch's engagement with the streamer and chat and within the chatters themselves is what makes the platform special. Using this to train AI without being able to opt out is hitting the reverse gear to drive off a cliff.

Twitch is a creative platform that thrives because of its people. It's because the people choose to create content as an art form and share that with its community. Using generative AI is disrespectful to those people. The same people that use your platform and keep it afloat. I doubt that AI will be able to replace that creativity.

Using generative AI sounds like a short-term decision that doesn't actually consider your users or long-term use. There's lots of other places that already make low-quality mass produced AI content. Don't make Twitch another mass producing machine.

I have streamed five days a week for six years. I have built up a wonderful community, and I am very proud of everything I've done on the platform. If streams being used for AI training becomes mandatory, I will simply delete my account and never touch the website again. I desperately don't want to, but there is no other choice.
