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.

Strongly against AI, and scraping content material should be a default opted out setting. Nobody should have been automatically opted in where we have to choose to opt out.
Also automatically opting in is strongly disrespectful for content creators who have passed and CANNOT opt-out.
Their new setting is also screaming for copyright infringement as well for intellectual properties owned by nintendo, sony, disney if they're intending to create AI generated bot streamers with the data they're collecting. There's already hundreds of thousands of streamers generating content and profit for twitch through bits, subs, and ad revenue which they already take a huge cut from as it is. This is honest to God, the greed they talk about in the Bible.
I don't know why they think adding AI functionality past the current algorithm would be a good idea when there's a large percentage of people against it. It hasn't worked well for other platforms, it's a money sink and it's stupid for them to think about adding it. -

This wasn't done consultatively, or with pre-roll out communication. This wasn't done with any form of consent. This wasn't done with the creator's wants/needs/wishes in mind.
Auto-opting in creative people, many of whom have been staunchly anti-Generative AI in particular, is a breach of the trust that is necessary for this platform to flourish and grow as you claim you want it to.
Opt-in should be the default.
Consent should be the default.
Consultation should be the default. -

With this divisive has llm generative AI is these days. Forcing people to opt in is never going to win you any Goodwill. You need to make it an option that is not forced on users by default. Or better yet get rid of it entirely because it's garbage.

Automatically opting in all users without asking them seems pretty ******. At the very least keep in mind that users could be underage too.
I recognize that you would like as many people as possbile to opt in to your new feature. I'd much rather have it be a one time pop-up that lets me opt in manually. That way at least I am actively aware what I'm consenting too instead of it feeling sneaked past the user (me) somehow.
You surely are aware that many users have strong oppinions about AI, so being extra transparent here just would have seemed appropriate to me.
That's just my 2 cents

So do everyone, and the whole world a favour, and kill AI for good. Nobody wants AI, nobody wants it, and nobody will use it! So ******* get rid of it for good!Honestly. To Twitch and to Amazon. ******** WITH YOUR ******* AI.

You opted us all in without consent. You were already a shady platform,but this is truly despicable. You are not to be trusted. You are an evil platform that steals from the creators that you host.

With how so may people out there who don't care for AI, it should be in the content creator choice if they want to op in or not.
With how many people are fed up with AI slop it makes it understandable when people are frustrated when AI is forced onto people. Allow others to be a able to advertise the AI in a tag so that if people are looking for AI they can find it that way. While the rest of us work hard to making honest AI Free content.

Opting in without consent first is not the behaviour I would expect from Twitch. It's sad this is even allowed to do without agreeing first. If you do it opt-out default, you would see how many people like AI.
But you don't wanna see the reality. It's sad -

If you have to make a feature automatically opting in, you know that it's not something people will actively consent to. Do better.

Assuming agreement and hiding the option to disagree is not consent, but a violation.
Simple as.

It is disingenuous to say ''Look at how successful X thing is'' when you've forced it down everyone's throats... YO 100% of our users have it installed, wowie!
But surely, as human beings with more than a single brain cel knew this very well. Look, if you want to ride the wave of A.I. to gamble for some tough dollar at our expense, you can be honest, just don't pretend its for our benefit.
Sorry if this message is angry, I'm just so tired of the:
''We at Whatever want the best for our creators, so we're giving them thing to succeed *drills thing onto skull* There we go :V Tell me how much you love it''
And then it gets all infected but then the service is A.I. too going like:
''We understand how upsetting things can be, here's a cookie and a band aid... the thing stays in your head though, thank you for choosing Whatever''.
No, I'm hissy, PS: IT'S JUST SO OBVIOUS. Forced against consent = bad.
Look, imagine you ride a bike, then some lunatic throws a brick at the back of your seat, or stick a leech on your face you notice months later, saying is for efficiency.
Like, what are we doing??? No, don't hit us with any PR language, why'd you force a cold dead mouse down my shirt then put an automated system to troubleshoot it?
I don't care how optimistic you are about A.I., I myself think it could be used for good, but the REALITY is that corporations are shortsighted, greedy, and don't care or understand what VHS or RCA cables even are. And many users of A.I. are developing brain atrophy... so like.. net good? Truly the most minds of our time.
If you care, put the tools inside a box, inside a cabinet. If we care we'll go get them, don't mess with my desk or sign me up against my knowledge!
Fun fact, did you know happy people make happily? And car with no obstacle go fast? We no happy. Don't stop our flow, we want to stay.
I'm so upset when ever I see the FAQ section of A.I. features and its all positive questions like ''How can I start? How can I improve my usage?'' Never a question like '' How can I execute it, and burry it in the farthest corners of the pits of Sauron's basement and never see it again?'' Guess I'll have this leech on my face.
