I dont need any AI anything on this platform! please don't put anything AI on twitch please!

Generative AI is a mistake that sucks creativity and intelligence from the population. A platform utilizing AI will not see growth, it will see a downtown in user engagement as people move to other, non-AI based platforms. Creatives are what give this platform life, so if you’re going to implement this feature make it so all users can opt out. It’s the least you can do.

Creative spaces such as Twitch should have no room for AI. If our data ends up being used for training AI, I will quit using Twitch as a platform.

A.I is not creative. It's has no place in content creation or artistic expressions. Companies need to stop relying heavily on AI and go back to humanity. We are what makes this platform great so why are we adding AI to take everything away from us? Twitch, you do not need AI, content creators do not need AI.

Generative AI lives and dies on the backs of creatives. If Twitch sides with the AI corps, they are openly admitting they value the dollar over protecting their users. Having an opt in or opt out policy is a thin veneer covering the corporate greed. Generative AI has NEVER been about anything other than printing money for the wealthy. This will not encourage innovation. This will not drive user engagement. This will damage the Twitch brand. Any publicist with 1 year of collegiate knowledge would smell the stink of this. Please, on behalf of creators and our fans, do not work with Generative AI jackals.

A complete travesty happening across all platforms DRIVEN BY HUMANS. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves, but you’re capitalists so that capacity doesn’t exist for you. But we’ll ensure you know how bad you done ********* if you ignore us.

If Twitch decides to pursue AI more than it already is, I will leave the service for the same reason I left X/Youtube/Reddit/Imgur/DeviantArt and so many other popular interactive platforms. There is always alternatives and I'll happily switch to them, and my viewers will follow.

Your true wealth is the creators who make the content your viewers come to see- no one wants AI slop when they're looking to connect on a human level with what little freetime they have. Pursuing AI will absolutely be akin to shooting yourself in the foot, and the financial and social cost of inevitably doubling back will stick far longer than any gains you've projected to obtain. Do not do this, and if you must, absolutely make it Opt-out by default.

I'm a small creator so I'm not sure how much what I say will stick, but.... AI is not just a waste of precious resources... is also directly responsible for the pickle we're in with consumer hardware prices being so high. Under no circumstance do I support the use of it on the platform in any capacity, or being forced to use it. Implementing a system to take our streams to train AI models is a direct violation of my trust in the platform and I'll take my streams and community elsewhere. Twitch needs to listen to the user base and not their shareholders.

With how staunchly against generative AI majority of the platform is it is baffling that this is even being considered to begin with. No one has been asking for this. No one even likes the AI generated summaries that was semi recently introduced and most people that even know about it have it turned off. This does nothing for the userbase beyond killing what little trust remains in the platform.

As a passionate artist, I will always and forever be Anti-Ai. What twitch is planning is NOT OKAY, not okay at all.

I strongly disagree with automatic use of AI, and it is much better for everyone if we are able to choose for ourselves which features we use. If I want to go without AI I should be able to.

Twitch clearly only listens to the shareholders and not its userbase. Literally nobody wants any form of AI to be shoved down their throats. If this gets the go ahead, I'm deleting my accounts and boycotting Twitch and Amazon. No discussion.

Shouldn't it be "set the default to Opt In"? Meaning the user starts with the AI features out as default and they've got the option to get in if they want to? I think I know what you were trying to say but I wouldn't want the company get any linguistic loopholes to exploit.

Absolutely do not want any form of AI! its hard enough already with AI being involved in stolen content, artwork, music etc. Let creators create organic content and at least have the freedom to choose if they want AI or not!

I want AI features to be optional. Thank you.

As an art creator, forcing AI upon twitch creators absolutely awful and gross behaviour. We do not consent to our content being used into AI training.

I've used twitch for over a decade and STRONGLY support allowing creators to individually opt in or out of AI features, and making the default opt out. I don't want AI in twitch at all, it's only going to make Twitch worse, but if you are absolutely determined to go this ill-advised route, at least make it optional!

How can we even trust the opt out button would even do anything? Will Twitch face ANY repercussions for lying and selling the data anyway? This petition is an obvious indicator for the public opinion but they don't care the slightest about that. Anyone here should also message their local government about the massive amount of cash to be made by fining these tech companies for all they're worth if they're caught selling your data without consent or burying "consent" within a EULA.

If AI is 100% unavoidable on Twitch, this is the LEAST that can be done as a compromise. Having it at all is a terrible choice, but having it optional and off by default is better than nothing.

i honestly am not an affiliate yet, but i'm against the idea of Twitch using AI, i don't see it as a good idea, in fact, i see it as quite the opposite, i feel that if AI features end up not being optional and Opt Out by default, i don't see myself using the platform.

which i'm admittingly not fully anti-AI, as i'm somewhat okay with stuff like ChatGPT or Grok, but that's because those are two example of helpful AI Chatbots, what i'm not okay with, is AI features being on streaming platforms, cause to me, AI will not improve things, it could end up causing problems for people
