    Twitch owes it's entire business model on games. Specifically, games created by hundreds of teams of dedicated and talented artists, coders, musicians, actors, etc.

    Generative AI is a massive threat to the industry. As of right now, vibecoders are taking advantage of AI tools to either cobble together sloppy unoriginal garbage, or steal other people's game projects and repackage them as their own.

    This hackathon event is you directly encouraging the use of generative AI in game development. Given the current climate, this is irresponsible and reprehensible.

    You're already tacking on a bunch of unnecessary AI garbage into the Twitch ecosystem. And you've been on thin ice for me for that alone.

    DO NOT take this next step. Or I will heavily consider cutting your platform off.

  2. Make all AI features optional, and opt-out by default.

    I livestream with the goal of sharing the things and experiences I love. And to build a community of like-minded people that also want to share their passions as well.

    I DON'T stream with the intention to feed a company's generative AI initiatives. And I in no way wish for what I do to be used to replace me, OR be used to create a competing medium that looks to make me obsolete.

    Set all current and future users to opt out of any machine learning and GenAI systems by default. Let individual users choose whether they want any of it or not.

    Depending on how you choose to roll out these features, it will influence whether I will use Twitch as my preferred streaming platform in the future.
