Using genAI imagery (using genAI ANYTHING) when the platform has thrived on human creativity and ingenuity is ridiculous and so disrespectful to your creators. We already went through this with the terrible CatintheChat emote. Support your artists! Hire humans!

Most of us don't want AI features at all and we've been very loud and very clear about that. If you insist on forcing it on your creators and viewers it should, at the very least, be an *opt-in* not an opt-out.
And, if the latest news is true, planning to scrape your creators to train Amazon's AI is reprehensible. We are not fodder to be fed to the plagiarism machine. You have professional creators on your site whose voices and likenesses are their livelihood. (Scraping anyone's likeness and voice, particularly without consent, is incredibly creepy.) You have artists who certainly won't consent to have their art trained on. Professional VTubers whose models are tied to their agencies.
That's not even considering the myriad other ways genAI is unethical. And, to echo many others, if this is the path Amazon is choosing, I'll be leaving. You've repeatedly tested your streamers and viewers collective trust. Pushing AI is going to be the final straw for many of us, and will ultimately only deepen the financial hole I'm sure has already been dug in pursuit of popularizing something so fetid.
