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.

**** Gen AI, and **** the people who invented it.

Twitch clearly using it's monopoly to show how much they care about your average streamer on the platform.
More than happy to blow millions on features that no one wants, over and over, but not do anything that might positively affect the platform, such as giving its creators a fair cut of revenue THEY make. Or maybe removing the arbitrary "anti-bot measures" against lurkers on most peoples streams.
At this point, it feels like Amazon is actively sabotaging the platform so they can justify being rid of it and the overheads it incurs.

No one wants AI features on Twitch at all. To go a step further, rather than opting out, I don't think the feature should exist in the first place. It does nothing but harm the environment and dilute the quality of people's content as a whole.

The whole point of streaming on Twitch is unique creativity made by us humans. Literally no one ask for GenAI nor consent to such thing. All GenAI does is hurt people and the world we live in, as well as stealing our content. Many other companies have lost billions because of GenAI, and it's only getting worse from here. I do not want any of my content fed to AI, and I will never consent to it. I will leave this platform if GenAI uses my likeness on Twitch.

Artists, creators, and those of us who are building communities with information, would STRONGLY need the option of opting out of generative ai within the Twitch platform. Generative ai = theft. I encourage Twitch to give their creators a voice and lead the change to have this option.

Absolutely NO interest in AI, please stop trying to push it onto everything. Twitch is a creative platform where we get to chat, engage, and play games with our communities, and AI has no place in that.

We, quite frankly, don't want AI in our streams and we don't want creators and users to be used as training data en-masse, not least because of the issues of data security and personal privacy

This is the bare minimum. Creators should have control over their content, especially when it comes to AI and whether it is used to train it.

Heck, NO! We don't need a LLM skimming our streams or using us without our consent!
Stop trying to shove this down our throats, WE DON'T WANT IT!

The fact so many companies' CEOs, CFOs, heads of the business are constantly thinking, "Maybe if we added AI", despite the extreme public backlash truly shows you how out-of-tune they are with their audience. I'm tired of these people, who are fully out-of-touch, assuming they know the best decisions for things and completely pushing away the VERY PEOPLE they built their platform on. I'm tired of being civil about this.
1. We do NOT WANT AI.
2. We do NOT NEED AI.
3. We do NOT DESIRE for AI to use OUR streams and OUR time and OUR data just to benefit a few greedy individuals with their hands in other people's pockets.What people do on their streams is an expression of the time, effort, and love they put into their work. If you think that skimming off that to train stupid, generative AI models will give a better userbase, then I kindly request you crawl back into the hole you came from. Clearly, you just don't get it, and we do not want you muddying the waters.

I'd rather we eliminate AI features as a whole. They're too costly to maintain and stain the platform. On top of that GenAI is theft. Full sail. I'd rather we go back to when AI wasn't getting forced onto everyone.

I do not want to have my voice or gameplay used to train AI. I do not want my chat messages to be used to train AI. I will stop using twitch and cancel all my subs if there is no option to opt out.

You can take your GenAI and shove right up where the sun doesn't shine, Twitch.

If GenAI is added, with no way to fully opt out of all AI features, I'm just gonna leave the app. No second chances. There are other platforms and other ways to support my favorite creators. Tread carefully Twitch, I think you vastly underestimate how many people will easily abandon ship if you do this

Any progress I make as a Twitch affiliate will be null and void if you go through with the decision for using our voices. Give us the option to opt out, or preferably, not go through with this decision.

Do not implement AI! This technology is anti-creator and anti-user and we don't want it or need it. The integration of AI in Twitch will deeply affect how much of my time, energy and money I give to Twitch.
AT THE VERY LEAST, allow creators to opt-out.

Twitch is built on real experienes, 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.
