the AI loser who went out of his way to scrape all the art off Cara demonstrates again: AI is fundamentally predicated on theft and the violation of consent

we have to think about how we call out hateful folks who say hateful shit because It Happened Again: a small vtuber with struggling numbers went on a transphobic screed, was justifiably called out, and then was immediately elevated by the rightwing chudtubers on X and their viewership went up 10x

If your only requisite to "solving male loneliness" is providing sexual gratification, then I don't believe you understand what loneliness is much less have any notion of how to actually help with it.

Joi AI hired 10 people to masturbate using AI companions as part of a monthlong “wellness” study. The company claims the practice could help “solve male loneliness.” www.wired.com/story/these-...

Stole this from the comments because this shit shouldn't be behind a paywall.

POWER TRIP: ICE’s new electric shock gloves are designed to overpower subjects through intense pain. But it turns out there is a simple way to stop them working. Read the full story on @wired.com www.wired.com/story/the-pa...

Here's an extension to check if people have opted out of genAI. It's an honor system. But it's better than nothing. Right now, it's only a chrome extension. But they're working on more. safebadge.ori.mx (you can mark yourself as safe on there if you've opted out)

actually let me do better: i'm giving 6 months of the patreon for free for any artist that wants to use the repost queue, just send me a dm to get a code!

deck.blue@deck.blue · last wk.

And once again, if you don't have money to pay for the Patreon, that's totally fine and I'm able to gift you with 3 months for free for you to try it out! Artists are the driving force of Bluesky and I want to build the definitive tool for you!

This is where I got my anti genAI image for my streams that I'll be using!

jia@jiakimchi.bsky.social · 20h ago

Made some graphics for my stream and some friends' streams to let viewers know about our stance on this. Free to use without credit. (This is not my original idea/wording, I just wanted something that matched my stream) ko-fi.com/s/e9eebd9c98

Might be a good time to say this again! As the question comes up from time to time. Bikubot is not and will not be implementing any Generative AI features, like TTS that uses Gen AI. The belief is firmly that real work like artists should be supported and not have it being used without permission.

Highly encouraging all Twitch streamers to put something along the lines of 'NoGenAI', 'AIFree', 'NoGenerativeAI', in their Twitch tags. The new update that makes genAI training immediately opted in will also use your chat to train models. Let your communities know it's safe to engage!

DELICIOUS !! 🎉

Ori Sky@ori.mx · yesterday

I’m making a browser extension called Safe Badge to let you know which Twitch streamers have disabled Gen AI training. This is an honor system as there’s no way to verify it. But it’s better than nothing. The extension isn’t finished yet but you can give yourself the badge here: safebadge.ori.mx

everyone says "just move to another streaming platform" when twitch makes shitty choices—genuinely where is there to move to? youtube is full of gen-ai & just made the requirements for their paid program twice as hard. kick is a cesspool. velora has a gen-ai bot they want you to treat like a human.

Together, with my dear friend @mollyberry.bsky.social , I am happy to announce our new Twitch stream team: Zero Percent Gen AI; we are officially opening it up for applications! ➡️ forms.gle/3Uereeaky3Zi... ⬅️ #genai #indiegamedev #twitch

Hi loves. This is important. I understand the sentiment & importance of cancelling subs on Twitch. Voting with your wallet Many of my friends are full-time streamers & that is their only source of income. Please consider moving support to other platforms like ko-fi. This could ruin lives.

me figuring out how to write the brief for "competency" in stenography! i did it eventually! felt pretty proud of myself for this one. #MelodeezClips #VTuber #VTuberClips #StenoSky #TwitchClips

Twitch now uses your channel to train generative AI by default. You can opt out of some training here: www.twitch.tv/settings/sec...

⚠️ OPT OUT ON BOT ACCOUNTS TOO!!! ⚠️ Every single account you have on Twitch - OPT OUT!

Kaemsi, Kae or Empress (she/her)@kaemsi.bsky.social · 2d ago

Don't forget to opt-out your bot accounts This also applies to people who are *just* viewers, so everyone needs to check their channel settings

Hadestown pro shot was such a ride I had to paint this immediately. Wanted to emphasize the leg cast Patrick Page had as a strength to Hades and his influence in the show. #hadestown #fanart

hey this new thing with twitch really sucks; but remember that many people in this community have spent years building a schedule and audience they may not immediately be able to walk away from. make sure to support your favorite streamers, no matter what their next moves for content creation.
