While some may view AI as making things simpler and easier for the masses, this is something that none of us really asked for, or the majority did not want on Twitch. Not only this, but I feel that by even the idea of having AI features on Twitch makes the platform feel more soul-less.

Hi, thanks for flagging this and sharing your suggestion.
We share and understand your concerns about how the intentional, repeated misuse of tags can undermine the purpose of the tags product itself. Tags are an important discoverability feature for communities, and a powerful way for all Creators—but especially those that are underrepresented—to express their personal identity and creative vision for their content.
We also do not feel Twitch should be the judge of Creators’ personal or creative identity, so we typically only enforce against the misuse of tags when it is associated with other behavior that violates our Community Guidelines such as hateful conduct or harassment.
That said, as the VTuber community’s experience demonstrates, there are limitations to this approach and we are actively investigating additional steps we can take to protect and improve the integrity of the tags feature at scale, without infringing on good faith Creators’ personal choice…

Hey Twitch, I think we need to talk.
We know you're trying to be all 'hip and cool' for your streamers, and you want to help them in anyway you can to get more people to stream. Because we know that more streamers means more cash rolling in, and that's a good thing, right?
And then you heard about GenAI, and so you thought to yourself "Hey, this stuff looks pretty neat. Maybe we should use it too!"
Next thing you know, you used it to give people the choice to have their streams scraped by the system, which is akin to stealing, with the exception that you gave a choice to swat your hand and tell you to stop stealing from us.
And now you're sponsoring this Hackathon event, which is partnering up with OpenAI to give us more Generative AI that we didn't ask for?
Twitch, I've known you for a long time... and I'd like to believe you're better than this, being addicted to this drug called generative AI, and then trying to push this drug onto others...
Because at it's core, it's people that helped Twitch thrive, not generative AI.
