OK I guess I'm here for a while. I have no specific theme. Just things that grab my interest. My posts will be SFW but my follows might not be. Explore that list at your peril.

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

For those who are up on the GenAI issues on Twitch-- they are not planning to have any feature present to let us know what channels have opted out of GenAI Data Collection. I am using the tag "OptOutGenAI", and if you are a creator who also is opting out please consider using the tag too!

With Twitch's AI update ( That you should opt out of immediately by scrolling to the bottom at - www.twitch.tv/settings/sec... ) it means if a streamer you follow hasn't turned it off it'll be scraping chat for all messages, even if YOU have opted out, it defaults to the channel owners settings.

What channel content (clips, chat, metadata, etc.) is eligible to be used for generative AI training?

"Your stream and the stream's chat, your VODs, your clips, highlights, and any text or images on your channel may be used. If you chat on someone else's stream, their opt-out preferences govern if that chat can be used for training"

In VRC, I do enjoy times when I'm the only American in the room. At one point last night someone from Serbia was talking about how he was frustrated with something, turned to me and said "Are you American? Can I borrow your 12 gauge?" Me: "Wow. Way to stereotype me. Also which one? I have 5."

Figured another round of creature envy post would help us all in these tiring times... Oh I bet you'd love to touch it, to feel how soft and plush it is... Go on, I won't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret... you weirdo😋❤️ #vrchat #gryphon
