-
Bryan Wade (@stale2000) reported@JayViperTV @TwitchSupport Then turn it off? Whats the problem?
-
FenrisStar 🐺 ⭐️ (@fenrisstar) reported@TwitchSupport This is a terrible move right now. Whoever in leadership pushed this forward needs to be put in touch with the community. I’m being nice but read just a handful of these comments. Generative AI has no place in the creative world. 🖕
-
Eric (@InkAndOxide) reported@TwitchSupport Why is it not off by default? Is it because you know everyone is going to opt out and that generative AI is a terrible idea that straight up steals from creators? The fact you are using it in general is disappointing.
-
PreePonee 💖 🦄 Vtuber and Cam Streamer (@PreePonee) reported@ooTruffle @TwitchSupport That’s what I last did. And then scanned my PC, uninstalled apps I don’t use. And I’m not auto saving login to my Google account
-
Gnarly Eisley 🧟♀️🐋🤘 (@GnarlyEisley) reported@TwitchSupport Did you guys not see the uproar when Tiktok tried the exact same thing???? Whoever is making these awful decisions is so damn out of touch with its own users and should not be in that position at all.
-
mickey2fingr (@mickey3fingr) reported@airbagg3d @Twitch @TwitchSupport All he said is essentially that a country should protect its border and its people. Why does everyone have a problem with this? The world is slowly getting crazier and every normal person look crazy.
-
Guunnz (@GuunnzDev) reported@TwitchSupport fix please, its hurting indie devs
-
⌜Retrofuture *****⌟ (@Malicious_Hero) reported@TwitchSupport Why isnt it THE DEFAULT?! This is terrible.
-
Rauyne Cloud (@TheRauyne) reported@kivuraw @umapalma01 @TwitchSupport The exploitation only continues to get worse by the way. So clearly those soft methods are not working both domestically and foreign. Ah, the classic capitalism take...completely unrelated to the topic as well.
-
Jade 🧸 (@jademelissaa) reported@TwitchSupport @Twitch please help Sloth out!
-
Ente 🔜 EF30 (@Entenschaf) reported@TwitchSupport Twitch hear me out. How about you scrape the AI scraper off your website? Just an idea. Creatives generally don't appreciate their work being stolen by corporations. I know I know, crazy concept but that could really lift you above the competition.
-
Hooty Hoo 🦉🌙 (@HootyHooVT) reported@TwitchSupport Terrible decision to have it at all, let alone having it on by default 🥀
-
jason Indelacio #twitchAffiliate #streamer #twitch (@indelacio_co_uk) reported@TwitchSupport @Twitch saying "twitch, clip that" does not work, I've done it 5 times on different streams and it's not made a single clip
-
Malted Bastard (@Malted_Bastard) reported@TwitchSupport This should be opt IN, get it right, nobody wants to help the slopdispensers "improve".
-
Midnights in Valhalla | VRChat's Nightly Bartender (@MidinVal) reported@ambearleevtuber @TwitchSupport The biggest issue is that eventually other places will do it too, you're not safe and then what they'll do is just have it on and you can't change it down that road even though you swore to have had it off.
-
Donovan Mowatt (@canhasbucket) reported@TwitchSupport After its already gobbled up everyones information because its on by default?!Oh...yeah...hindsight and all that. Real good stuff here. /endsarcasm Spineless people work here.
-
ℌ𝔢𝔞𝔯𝔱𝔩𝔰𝔰 (@Heartlss__) reported@Twitch @TwitchSupport she has never in her life done anything to hurt anyone or anything. Having her account banned after getting hacked is unnecessary. Please help her
-
Medic (@ILostMyMedic) reported@DoodlingMonkey @Twitch @TwitchSupport Sorry that was a general comment on the situation. As I emphasized in my first comment this have been a problem for over 10 years, that wasn’t meant to be targeted at you specifically but the discussion as a whole
-
sonia asahina (@SoniaAsahina) reported@TwitchSupport this is terrible. opting us in without our consent to begin with is just wrong.
-
Tyler is doing his best (@MisterTylerrr) reported@TwitchSupport Also it's not an option on mobile, you ******* mouthbreathing inbreds. Fix it. Eat ****
-
Lacerto 🦎🧠 (@BCG_Lacerto) reported@Sivoryn @TwitchSupport Thanks for reaching out! Happy to answer this one! After careful consideration, we are unable to continue supporting an ideology which encourages mentally ill men to manipulate their hormones (it certainly hasn't been a good time for actual women - ask anyone who takes birth control!) and mutilate their bodies to more closely resemble the women whose spaces are no longer safe from creepy guys and their bizarre fetish for LARPing as women. If you have any further questions about this policy, please hesitate to reach out to us. All the worst, ***** Support
-
Big Dumbo (@LstBrainCell45) reported@umapalma01 @TheRauyne @TwitchSupport I’m curious how you believe you hold the moral high ground here when your own logic mirrors the worst parts of human history.
-
𝔗𝔢𝔯𝔲 (@Teruzond) reported@TwitchSupport Maybe consider disabling it by default? Or removing AI training altogether. We don't want our work scraped for the slop engine.
-
PreePonee 💖 🦄 Vtuber and Cam Streamer (@PreePonee) reportedNo changes were made in the night. I’m hoping @TwitchSupport will issue IP ban to the individual who keeps accessing my account around the 2FA and changing my payout location to their own. Not for revenge, but to protect others. We shall see if they get back to my email.
-
Lodi (@thatPaleDragon) reported@TwitchSupport @zachbussey @TwitchSupport really? What if I don't want ANY of my content used AT ALL for "ai training"? I'll take my work ELSEWHERE, tyvm. Cuz it says RIGHT THERE IN THE NOTICE THAT IT DOES NOT OPT YOU OUT OF AMAZON AND TWITCH USING YOUR CHANNEL CONTENT FOR AI SUPPORTED TWITCH FEATURES!!
-
Clio Taurus (@ClioTaurus) reported@TwitchSupport Can someone help me with this problem I have? My account was suspended, but my appeal was approved, but many weeks later I still can't login as the mechanism that prevents me from doing so without changing my Username is still active. It's been about 2 months now.
-
Sun Pankeki ☀️🥞 (@SunPankeki) reported@TwitchSupport It's always "opt out" of AI bullshit and never "opt in." Even better save us all the trouble and don't bother with AI bullshit at all.
-
Antoine (@JiveOff) reported@TwitchSupport Absolutely terrible PR
-
Pablo Lavín #Unshatter (@Panebomero) reported@shxtou @TwitchSupport The switch wont even work at all because they can do whatever and tell us otherwise lol
-
King Awesome👑🧊 (@KingAwesomeTTV) reportedHey @TwitchSupport I think the Activity Feed is broken cause I've gotten follows during my stream *cause I saw the number change* and no alerts ran at all, nothing from my on-screen alerts, nothing from my bot, nothing in the Activity Feed via my twitch dashboard. Pls fix.
