There is literally no reason for this disrespect towards artists. If Twitch is concerned about the images costing money, I can promise there are many talented artists who would make premium-quality images FOR FREE, or at the very least, for an obscenely cheap cost. It's just another slap in all creators' faces, and it's a slap we can't accept; we MUST continue expressing our disdain for genAI at every level and on every front.

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…
I feel as though the vast majority of creators on the platform are vehemently against genAI and/or anything that takes their information by force. Throwing something like this on your creators, the people who are making you all of your money, is a scummy move. Please do the right thing. Do what's right by the people who make Twitch what it is.
