I defy you to come up with an honest reason how AI features could in any way improve twitch. Literally give me even a single reason that can stand up to any scrutiny whatsoever.

Stop forcing AI onto every little thing!
"How can we make things better?"
"Make things better for people?"
"No don't be silly."
"Contribute to ai slop? You're hired!"
smh

Seriously, you could not alienate yer userbase if you tried

Ever heard of a necessary evil before?
This AI training garbage is... not that, it's a very unnecessary and very unwanted evil

In the current climate of this new techbro craze that is AI, most everyone is united as being against its implementation.

This is no exception.

If Twitch is going to implement AI into it's website anyway, the whole thing needs to be completely off by default and opt-in instead of turning on for everyone by default and making it opt-out.

By all means, even make a little bubble blurb popup on the dashboard that will take anyone directly to the settings (at least one time) so that they can know where the settings are as well. As an addendum, this bubble should reappear every time a new AI thing gets added so that everyone who has them off can make sure they stay off and anyone who wants them on can have the opportunity to do so if they so wish.

No one wants AI slop. As an artist my own work has already been stolen to train databases. And million others have also been affected by this. This is copyright infringement which also destroys not only jobs, but the environment. If Twitch will decide to go this route, I will immedeatly leave. No more streaming myself. No subscribing to any channels. Not watching streams. I hope many more creators, especially bigger names, will decide to unite and do the same. Without creators, you won't have a platform. But maybe you want AI slop 'creators' that are not even real and based upon stolen personalities. If there will be proper regulations one day, people will be able to sue you.
Please do not implement that. No opt in/opt out garbage where we don't even know if the button does ANYTHING.

having an option (and it being opt-in) is the bare minimum. Best woul be no genAI at all

This sucks and no good will come out of it. Absolutely not with the AI garbage.

Ai should be by default a opt in or opt out option and not enforced without permission from the users, it already gets a bad rep for stealing art, the problems I see this causing is being used against the streamers and can be used maliciously

The least ye can do is give the option to opt-out and have it be the default, the ideal thing to do would be to walk this back entirely.

Adding ai will make yall lose a whole lot of user

to quote Frank Herbert " Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind"
Using AI is insulting both to the human spirit and creativeness,but also to your users and streamers many of who depend on the streams as a form of living

Twitch has no place for generative ai- stop this !!

I think its the worst decion one could make to Force a User in Creative Space to make them train something that they dont want to have anything to do with.
But that is something only our Voices can be heard of to say and nothing in the End will probably change as Big Corp AI wants it and the small Person cant do anything about it.

Twitch, as a platform, thrives because of *human* passion. Creativity requires the earnest contribution of inspiration, time, and drive. *People* sustain Twitch, not machines or algorithms.

Entertaining the idea of AI implementation, in any regard, is already a severe insult to your current userbase.

Do the right thing for the sake of organic, legitimate, human-led creativity. Elevate the work and efforts of creators. Don't feed the hard work of people for short-sighted gains.

If this is mandatory I'll be leaving Twitch for good. No more watching streams or subscribing, no more streaming myself- nothing.

If this doesn't get rolled back, I'm cancelling my Turbo and I'll start vocally campaigning my followers to do the same. People do not want this; listen to the people.

Knock it off with the AI **** already, PEOPLE DO NOT WANT THIS! We're sick and tired of being stolen from, lied to, and sold whatever garbage AI decides to vomit back out, as if it isn't some cheap imitation of what was JUST STOLEN FROM US! We do not care how many billions of dollars you rich morons have wasted on it, your sunk cost fallacy issues are your problem, not ours. Continuing down this path of ruin is only going to drive away consumers and creators who, lest you forget, make all of your money for you. We have alternative platforms we can and will switch over to, no matter how many times we have to do it. Our audiences will follow us and continue to support us, and Twitch will be left to rot in the slop it chose over the real humans who have made it what it is today. Generative AI has no long term benefit, nor short term profit for anyone except a few billionaires who are quick enough on the rug pull. The sooner we reject this technology in totality, the better off we'll be as a species. Boycotts DO work.

let me make it very clear and simple: f-ck AI.
