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.

Don't add AI tools at all. It's stupid and unnecessary. And I certainly don't give consent to my streams, VODs, clips and anything I put up on Twitch to be used for training AI.

No AI, no creator wants their content to become a part of the machine, and no one wants to watch AI content

We don't need another training ground for ai, that stuff is not where it's at. It takes away so many subtle things from people and makes nothing better, except for those who run it.

Do not do this, this will lead to a mass exodus from your platform

If this gets implemented the way it's intended, it will be the last change/new "feature" Twitch will add with me on their platform. As a VTuber, i can only say that all of us despise genAI, with many artists who create our avatars being explicitly against AI usage on their works. Same with artists who create our assets and everything around our live streams in general.
It feels very much like a kick in the a** to me. Giving us a platform, building our career and sometimes even our life earnings around Twitch, and then crushing our jobs and passions, our hopes and dreams, with a stupid proposal like this. We will not be allowed to stream on Twitch anymore if we want to respect our artists TOS being against AI training. Plus, it's environmentally hurtful and, as many other people already mentioned, literally nobody wants this except for big tech investors.
If this gets implemented as is, it will be the death of Twitch, and I'm going to switch to YouTube (which I hope I won't need to since YouTube is really unrewarding when it comes to live streams). So please Twitch, get your sh** together and cancel this. Keep genAI away from us.

That's a big NOPE from me.
The internet is awash with AI slop, and the world is *literally* ON FIRE.
Are we really gonna continue spouting this fallacy that "AI is good, actually"? We can all see that it blatantly isn't. Stop trying to force it down people's throats. I'd much prefer that Twitch didn't add AI features at all, but the bare minimum they can do is to make Opting out of it a default.The platform is run off the backs of creatives putting their ideas and joy into the world.... AI has no creativity, no joy, it doesn't create anything, it just steals.

I don't want any of this. The public hates Gen ai footage to the core and y'all really think it's a good idea? Just stop and make actual useful stuff

Please make AI opt out or don't even do it. You don't get how immediately you will be ruining and damaging any community and faith you have.

Implementing AI training is a great idea if Twitch wants their top streamers to jump ship to YouTube!

We don't need ai slop.
We will quit if you force us to accept our streams being used as mere training data for a glorified plagerism machine.
Don't add genAI to Twitch. -

Do not do this to us, Twitch. Please make AI features optional and opt-out by default.
I've enjoyed Twitch as a place where creativity is in the hands of actual people, and I'm excited to continue to build my own channel with this type of creativity. Knowing AI could be trained on my content and my creativity breaks this and kills my excitement and motivation to continue building my channel with this company. -

**** Twitch....what a ******* horrible idea this is, you do know the damage that those useless data centers has done to the environment, right? Not to mention all of the artists from so many different walks of life that had their work stolen without their consent. How about you don't do this?
