PLEASE, we all now how harmful ai really is. Not just morally but for the environment. We don't want this, having that option is the bare minimum.

if you go through with this the platform is as good as dead, nobody wants this. Gen AI does not belong in creative spaces like these

Setting aside the moral conversation of AI for a moment, It's been known for a while that it's not profitable unless you are nvidia. Google is failing financially at this stuff! In every direction, this is shooting themselves in the foot.

I do not want to see generative ai on the platform. I do not want any of my streams or content used for ai training. I do not want my chat or viewers engagement used for ai training. I will not continue using the platform if generative AI or AI training features are forced on us.

Gen AI has absolutely NO place in the creative fields, let alone existing at all.

At the very least. If twitch wants to try something new. We should be able to say “I want no part of this ********, seek someone else”

This is the worst idea you could have come up with Twitch... We thought we were safe here away from AI, and here you go and try to help it. Please.care about the people that use your service and don't let AI in at all...

This is one of the worst ideas Twitch has ever thought of. Generative A.I should not have any place in any creativity whatsoever, let it be forced down out throats like it's a cultistic religion. Generative A.I is getting normalized into being shoved into our faces it's not only scaring, but ******* disgusting.

I barely watch and have gone to only a few people I support via twitch subs due the various practices this platform has taken, if this proceeds I see no reason to even allow you to get revenue from me even via ads and will just never use this service again.

IF they incorporate AI/train things on AI, creators should absolutely get to choose whether or not their content is involved. Not in some hidden opt out switch that takes 20 min to find either, but an accessible switch that starts out being turned off. I think it would be better for twitch on not use any AI at all considering how horrid it is.

With AI being pushed everywhere, especially on places like YouTube, Twitch REALLY shouldn't be trying to push GenAI onto their platform too. I'm personally already really upset with YouTube going all in with their not so subtle support of GenAI, so seeing that Twitch is thinking about trying to use their creators' streams to train their AI is ******* insane to me. I'm sorry if this is a shock to the higher ups of Twitch, but NO ONE WANTS GENERATIVE AI ON THEIR PLATFORM!

It's genuinely really tempting to go back to streaming exclusively on YouTube if Twitch goes through with trying to scrape their creators' streams for AI training data. I'm very much aware YouTube's also trying just as hard to force AI down everyone's throats, but I'm still gonna try and protest GenAI being forced on everyone even if I must still use a platform that promotes it to continue trying at my dream of being a content creator because there's literally no good alternatives to YouTube or Twitch.

No one wants Generative AI. Please, Twitch, just support your creators like sane human beings instead of trying to replace them (because you know that's exactly where this push for GenAI is going to eventually lead).

********.

This is an extremely harmful practice that is not right for streamers on the platform at all, they should not be forced to have their work stolen, all for something that is not beneficial at all.

I'd go from barely ever using Twitch to deleting my account and never using it, terrible idea for multiple reasons:

1: AI is bad for the environment
2: AI is copyright infringement
3: AI has no regulations currently and has been used to harm others because of it
4: Generative AI has no place in creative works morally alongside point 2
5: Even if it's opt out, politely (insert swear word here). Should be off by default and also not added at all

i stream my creative process on twitch; i've done makeup, made cosplay, and made art. i harbor zero desire to integrate ai features in my workflow at all, and that extends to sharing it with my viewers.

Absolutely yes, we should be allowed to decide for ourselves! Or even better, don't add the AI at all! I hate how all these big companies shove AI down our throaths.

you should not do this at all

This is a terrible idea in so many ways.... Creators already don't want their work stolen. But, stolen by a soulless machine that will regurgitate their work in MULTIPLE places? Hard pass.

Oh, and good luck dealing with game companies when you steal their games looks via slurping up some streamer's footage....

Because game companies LOVE copyright infringement SO much....

Please consider just... dropping this idea completely. GenAI is a shaky foundation that will collapse in on itself eventually.

This is such an insanely bad idea from Twitch and yet it's amazing it took them this long to try it. Not only should nobody doing this nonsense at all, but setting it up as a mandatory and inescapable really goes beyond the pale of out-of-touch.

The whole thing is an apology waiting to happen.
Making it opt-in is the most basic element of decency and they still need to be told.

I was considering beginning streaming. I even started learning about all the tools and useful integrations.

A.I. is not.

If this gets implimented, my career with Twitch will be extremely short. I will not let my voice nor persona be used to train a.i. and will not visit the platform ever again.
