1. No AI for global emotes, change CatintheChat

   It is obvious from the disconnected whisker, uncanny expression, and strange anatomy that the holiday emote :CatintheChat: is AI generated. I speak on behalf of the artists on your platform who have had our livelihoods threatened by generative AI, as well as those with numerous ethical concerns- from datasets consisting of stolen and copyrighted work to environmental issues for immense amounts of energy spent on image generation.

   From a marketing and business perspective, the money you save releasing AI emotes isn't worth the negative PR, especially compared to the positive PR and community building that would result from featuring one of the creatives on your platform instead.

   Optics are important and this sends a clear message that you do not care about the artists working on your platform. The response on social media is very clear: rather than a fun feature to celebrate holidays, all the conversation is about how people don't want AI emotes anywhere near their channel or how they wish you would have worked with one of the many artists on your platform to create it.

   This feels like a complete slap in the face after you just released the Artist Creator Club, which seemed like a real effort to support creatives on Twitch. Those efforts ring hollow compared to your actions by releasing this emote.
   Make it right. Remove the emote and replace it with something either drawn by a real artist or edited from a real photo. Promise to prevent all future use of generative AI in global emotes so that those of us who oppose it never have to see this harmful practice being used in our chats.

2. lesbian flag

   It would be nice if the lesbian flag emote was changed, as the current one being used has transphobic and lesphobic backgrounds. if you search lesbain flag, the new, more inclusive one should be there so that you have reference. it has shades of orange on the top.
