Twitch has introduced a new feature allowing streamers to opt out of having their content used to train AI models developed by Amazon. This change comes after significant backlash from creators who were unaware their content was being utilized for this purpose. While streamers can disable this option, Twitch clarifies that content may still be used for other functions outlined in its Privacy Notice.
The update has raised concerns about the transparency of how Twitch and Amazon have previously used creator content. Questions remain regarding the extent of data usage and the implications for content ownership and rights in the evolving landscape of AI development.
