Let view this another way, Twitch please keep the bits around as it is easier to encourage impulse buying. With the super cheer option there are fixed amounts and it if it's not amount a viewer of a stream plans to do in one go, they are less likely to make that impulse purchase. With bits, it is easier to allow impulse purchases of bits which interns leads to different interactivity with streamers. For example, someone may be more convinced to buy 500 bits, and spend that over several message triggering different sound alerts, pop ups, or other forms of interactivity. Bits is a strong purchasing system which has been integrated in the way streamers drive revenue to their channel, which is going to be lost in this feature goes away.

The choice to add GenAI to Twitch, and using the streams on the platform to train this AI has to be among the worst decisions Twitch leadership has ever made.
The platform from a user perspective is about community and people. GenAI is completely antithetical to the whole experience for users.
Further, this is a completely tone deaf choice as it will drive away consumers from subscribing to users on the platform, or using the on platform currency. This not only hurts streamers, but it hurts Twitch. You are encouraging people to not spend money of the very people that make the platform.
