You must log in or # to comment.
If your product provided any real value to the consumer than people would be lining up to opt in.
That’s why it MUST be opt-in.
If you come up with a thing you KNOW FOR A FACT nobody sane would opt in to, then don’t fucking do it at all. Cunts.
But $…
So they’re relying on streamers not realizing the option is on, or perhaps not caring that it’s on, to get their training data. Stupid bastards.
On top of that, people have been having to go back to look at the setting to make sure it saves which likely just means they can “oops” it back on for anyone, anytime.
I clicked it, left, went back, and it hadn’t saved. So I left that screen up for awhile and that time seemed to work.
Going to have to check like once a week now though.
Motherfuckers. I hope a compilation of the loudest Cibidoki’s burps gets embedded irreversibly in the dataset.
Nobody Wants This But Me: Things AI Devs and Rapists Have In Common
Currently, if you can access it without an account, it’s never been opt anything. You can freely scrape anything that’s publicly available.
I guess Twitch is just laying down the ground work expecting copyright laws to get stronger (not a good thing unless you are Twitch and YouTube).
I expect there’s some kind of TOS rule about scraping and recording of streams. Making it opt-out allows Twitch to sell those streams to AI companies similar to how Reddit did after going public.
Currently, the ToS doesn’t really matter, it just let’s them ban you which doesn’t really impact most competent scrapers.
Sounds like they don’t want consent… Sounds like a rapists mentality.
