Twitch allows creators to opt out of AI training data use

Twitch has added privacy settings that allow streamers to opt out of having their content used to train Amazon's AI models. The opt-out option is available through account settings under the Security and Privacy section. Twitch confirmed it had been using creator content by default for AI training, a practice disclosed only when the privacy setting was introduced. The change follows substantial creator backlash, with over 16,000 streamers expressing opposition to the default data usage policy, raising broader questions about how technology companies handle user-generated content for artificial intelligence development.
