I’m really sorry to say it, but if your response to Twitch feeding your streams to AI training is “I’m moving to a different platform”, you’re extremely naive and directing your attention incorrectly.
YouTube, or whatever other platform you upload your stuff on, will either scrape your content directly, or have it scraped by a third party. If you upload something to the internet, it will be used without your consent to train AI, no matter where you upload it. If you think there is a way to avoid this from happening, you’re naive, or at most, delaying the inevitable.
If you’re not ok with that, you have 2 options:
1 (the wrong one): give up on creating.
2 (the right one): push for legislation and larger scale control over generative AI and the training of AI models.
The only way to prevent this from happening is to make a larger effort against the entirety of generative AI. Complaining at one of the hundreds of tech companies using it isn’t gonna get you anywhere. We need to tackle it at the source.
Twitch, YouTube, or any other big content hosting platform aren’t going to change anything, because they know you realistically don’t have any alternatives. The only way to get them to change is if they’re forced to. Direct your attention to those who can apply that force.

‼️here's a thread of helpful and important links with infos and ways to help several nations under attack, such as palestine, iran, congo, sudan and more.
i'll try to keep updating, feel free to comment if there's more sources that aren't in here and i'll add it to the thread.
Please spread as much awareness as you can about what's happening in the middle east right now. Theyve bombed abu dhabi, bahrain, iran and more.
They have blocked off any sort of internet or signal in iran. Iran is in danger and soon the entire middle east will be too.
I am starting a studio! We are small and scrappy and have no money. Why am I doing this? Because the only ones who can protect art are the ones who value it. Disney using AI? Yuck. Netflix buying WB? Also yuck. In 10 years what is even going to be left.
Hi! Not the greatest news I was hoping to share but here it is.
Hoping to bounce back hard this year though and will be announcing an exciting new thing tomorrow. Please look forward to it. More art below.

Heads up, social media is about to get really bad and disgusting.
Make sure to take breaks if you ARE going to read all these things and protect your mental health.
Sick world out there.
It’s going to get a lot worse before it gets better.
A Spanish scientist have cured pancreatic cancer in mice. The most deadly cancer out there.
People ignoring it and making fun of his birth defect.
A cure in animal models is a huge step closer to a possible cancer treatment in humans.
Thank you, Dr. Mariano Barbacid!
You cannot argue with MAGA. They demand evidence, then call your sources biased. You provide primary sources, they claim they're doctored. You show them video, they say it's out of context. You give them context, they say you're cherry-picking. This isn't debate. This is a systematic refusal to allow reality to intrude on mythology. You're not arguing facts. You're arguing whether facts exist.
YOU ARE ALLOWED TO DO CREATIVE STUFF EVEN IF YOU DON’T THINK YOU’RE GOOD AT THEM BTW !! do stuff just because you want to, because it feels good and creativity is an outlet we all need!!
