I have to assume that the better part of Twitch's staff would ever want to implement this to the service and risk their relationship with the community, but they don't get to tell Overlord Bezos what to do. Amazon invested into its AI and they want to train it in any possible way to make a profit from their terrible decision. At the very least, they came out and told everybody the truth, and that says something, IMO. I low-key wouldn't doubt if they wanted to make sure everybody had a chance to opt-out as soon as possible.
I appreciate them being honest about it. I don't want any part of AI, myself, but until the bubble bursts, we're sadly going to see BS like this from the big corps for a while. I feel bad for people who have to work with AI as part of their job like this against their wishes, and I really hope people don't take this out too harshly on people caught in the middle, both staffers and creators, alike.

**** AI, btw.
