Streamers: if you have opted out of Twitch's genAI training policy, please consider adding the 'aiOptedOut' tag to your streams. It will help easily indicate safe spaces to myself, and other streamers/viewers who don't want to spend time in or raid into spaces that haven't opted out 💜 #twitch #genai
