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.

Realistically, the genAI features shouldn’t be integrated into Twitch at all. There’s absolutely no benefit to them; all they do is steal from creators while wasting electricity. Do not go through with this, or we will drop Twitch like a sack of bricks.

Because they put up such a stink about copyright, but they wanna bring in somethigg by that will literally steal our content, our voices, and our likeness. Yup. Makes perfect sense 🙄

If gen ai is implemented on twitch, I will straight-up abandon this platform and dissuade everyone I know from using it. And they'll listen! The vast majority of people HATE gen ai and want NOTHING to do with it!

Honestly it shouldn't be a part of things even with an opt out 🙄 but opted out by default shouldn't even be a question, it's not actually consensual at all otherwise

I will leave twitch if ai is forced and no opt out option is given. Human art is always the option. Multiple lawsuit cases have proven that ai steals human art. I hope you make the right decision and stand with your human artists.

A place for original content creation and LIVES has no place for genAI!

It's our content, our voices, and for most creators it's their likeness too, it's important to respect all of that. I know that if it's forced on us, i will likely have to quit twitch altogether and try to find another platform that respects its users' consent

It’s diabolical they’d even consider that without consent

No to AI! Creator content is human content!

So your website is already unprofitable and THIS is what you come up with to 'save' it? Okay.

Awful feature for genuine creators. Not to mention a waste of money in the long run once all the craze slowly dwindles as much as support for this initiative goes.

No to AI. Celebrate your content creators' hard work and time, not steal their efforts. Let us have the freedom to opt out completely and not just from certain content.

I would stop using Twitch entirely if the content on Twitch was being used to train AI with no opt-out. Forcing creators to have AI trained on their work is an incredibly tone deaf decision and shows a complete lack of respect for the creators who use Twitch as their platform.

Ai has a very narrow use in my opinion. Generative Ai, doesn't make anything better it can only regurgitate the things it has consumed without any emotion and I don't care for vomit, soulless or otherwise.

1. We do not need this. 2. What would we even get out of this? 3. Generative-AI is super unethical, it is horrible against the American and Chinese people! 4. No one wants to be "fed" to Generative-AI. 5. If Twitch adopts this new idea they will most likely lose over half their users. 6. (insert the almost two hundred downsides to generative AI)

AI scraping is theft, and AI overall is a bother, and a chore. Nobody is asking for AI features. Nobody has wanted them from the start

If yet another platform tries to shove this drivel down my throat I will not stick around and my wallet sure won't, either. No AI.

I would, after almost 9 years of streaming on Twitch, no longer be if they implement this without it being easy to opt-out FULLY and permanently from. Preferably they change it to an opt-in feature that starts as disabled. But I would prefer it to not train ANY data at all.
