It's always one step forward, several steps back with Twitch.

It's like you actively *want* to push people away from your platform.

Even making this an "opt-out" will be the last straw for many.

Read the room.

We do NOT want AI introduced into another facet of our lives. It's already being slapped in every other possible corner of the universe, we DO NOT want it here too. Twitch is supposed to be an escape from the absolute dumpster fire that is the outside world, please do not allow it to come in and taint this platform as well. In conclusion to make myself clear: WE DO NOT WANT THIS! NO AI!!!!

AI features need to be Opt-IN by default. You should have to choose to allow the AI garbage and data collection, not hope that you can turn it off.
OPT OUT definition: 1. to choose not to be part of an activity or to stop being involved in it:

If this gets implemented, I cannot help but feel my whole extended stream team community is going to immediately fracture. There are going to be the streamers, none of us who will want to use this platform anymore, much less touch it with a 100ft pole, but we all know there will be community members who won't follow us to a new site.

The idea of having to make a change of this magnitude for a couple of my larger friends who have made this their career and don't have another job is ... unthinkable. And yet, I think even they are going to back away from Twitch if you do this.

I don't want to have to find an alternative to Twitch. YouTube doesn't see streaming as any kind of profitable resource, and its impossible to find streams on YouTube. And I don't know of any other site that does what Twitch does. But if you do this? I'm out. As I bet the majority of your content creators are going to be.

ill leave twitch no doubt about it

I say NO TO A.I. ON TWITCH! My content, my voice and all art of myself is MINE and not made to train A.I. slop.

We don't want AI ruining everything. If this nonsense is added, so many communities will up and leave. Nobody asked for this, nobody wants this.

I WILL NOT, nor will I EVER support AI that replaces humans with bad experiences. AI is a blight on humanity because it steals genuine creativity (without consent) and replaces the human experience with soulless slop, unusable user experiences, and asinine customer support. All at the cost of uprooting communities from their homes, destroying the environment at a rate UNPRECEDENTED since the ubiquitization of cars, and forcing people out of jobs in numbers not seen since the Great Depression. If Twitch implements mandatory, unavoidable AI I will take my community elsewhere.

After all the amazing things Twitch has done, including introducing me to the best friends I've ever had AND let me start my own community I can call family, I would be heartbroken, angry, and betrayed if Twitch decides to sell their collective soul to save a few dollars.

There isn't a single person on this platform that wants this. If there was a substantial number of people who did, Twitch would be able to offer an opt-in and get their training data that way. The very fact that they're forcing it, or even having it opt in as default goes to show that they know no one would willingly choose to opt into this, and that their praying on peoples ignorance to take their content to use for their own purposes.

Please Twitch, reconsider this. If not for us, creators and viewers alike, for yourself. I assure you there will be a mass exodus if you go through with this, and nobody wants that.

I do not want to see AI data scraping on Twitch and nor do the creators I support. At the bare minimum, these features should require an active "opt-in" on the side of the user with full disclosure of what data is being processed and what that data is intended to be used for.

I can say with absolute certainty that the idea of Ai being implemented into its already faulty website and app is the equivalent of shooting your self in the foot, and then treating said wound by applying literal feces onto it and thinking it is a good idea. I would highly suggest that this utterly ridiculous idea gets thrown out the window because I can guarantee you that not only will I leave the site, I know for a fact many other creators will, and if they don’t I know they will do nothing but shame this site and convince others to shame this site and any other site that tries to implement and force others into this Ai ******** against their will.

Respectfully, try using your head for once and don’t rely on Ai to do your job, and maybe try putting more effort into supporting your creators in a creative non-Ai way because without your creators you are nothing.

My face and voice are my intellectual property. Forcibly taking it to train AI without giving me a cut is not ethical or legal.

No to AI!

no ai

no to Ai on twitch

Please no AI! It's destructive, and the bubble will burst sooner rather than later.

We don't want AI!

AI content and scraping data to train it has made almost the entirety of the internet unpalatable and unusable. If this reaches fruition, the only site worth using anymore may be Wikipedia. To be clear, there are no users who are excited at the prospect of being fed AI-generated content on this platform. And none of the broadcasters who make your site worth using are excited to have their work, faces, and identities stolen. It's a platform for connecting with people and celebrating games and ideas.

Forget the idea of wasting money and energy on any sort of infinite content generation machine. Real people already do that for you.
If you really can't help yourselves, default to opt-out. Otherwise you're sinking your own ship.

No bots in our streaming service please and thank you. We already know you do that with your customer service stuff.

Twitch creators do not want AI! It will only make things worse!!
