I'd argue that, for the metrics, it's vastly MORE important that viewers turn this off. There's more viewers than streamers, so even if every streamer turned this off, if viewers don't, the executives can still claim that "most users don't care" and cram it down our throats even harder. Opt out.

Even if you're just a viewer and not a streamer, tell them through metrics that you reject AI: Twitch.tv > Settings > Security and Privacy > Training for Generative AI: OFF

Cara was scraped. This attitude of art scrapers like this AI grifter in the AMA reddit thread perfectly represents the overall nature and sentiment of the entire AI bubble: Utterly inhumane, repulsive malice. But they're always "wondering" where all the resistance and aversion is coming from, huh

Twitch being the way it is right now, I think its important to bring this up again. Some entertainers Depend on Twitch for their living, I'm one of them, and now more then ever its important to support the people who entertain you in efficient ways which minimize the amount that goes to Twitch.

I've been disincentivizing Twitch Subs for a few years now.
And incentivizing anything outside of the Twitch Eco-system like:
🔹Kofi Subs - I do $3, $5, and $10 (with a $5 Sub I see $4.70+)
🔹Merch - We make ALL of our own merch in our workshop
🔹Art - Artist need to eat. Art is work and has Value
🔹Patreon - I don't have one
The Split for your streamer is always going to be better!
The only thing I've suggested is Twitch Turbo,  Its the cost of 2 Subs,  it gets the viewer 100% Ad free viewing, the streamer still gets the Ad Revenue + a small bonus, assorted features like rewind, and if you watch enough Channels Twitch basically loses money on it. This allows Viewers to take all the money they save on Twitch Subs and put it in their streamers pockets in a far more efficient way.

Generative AI is harmful to the environment, to our communities, and to our culture! Say no to Gen AI - and let everyone know! Here's how: -opt out as a streamer, chatter, or lurker - use tags - use your title - pin a message informing others how to opt out - discuss this with the community!

Twitch won't label which streams are and aren't using AI, so streamers are doing it themselves aftermath.site/twitch-amazon-...

Stop. Stop. Stop. I am so sick and tired of this Myth that gets spread around everywhere. No. They do not have a “perpetual license to do whatever they want with whatever you post”. That EULA line lets them DISPLAY WHAT YOU POST TO OTHER PEOPLE ON THE WEBSITE. That’s all it fucking does.

Q: A lot of people around here can't afford to fly. Can you say something about gas prices being a dollar more than they were a year ago? SEAN DUFFY: No one complained about Joe Biden's inflation, which was wild Q: Can you talk about gas prices?
