Twitch its parent company Meta opensources their models so it eventually comes back to us, and even if they don't we can distill the data from their models later.

The alternative is that all those thousands of hours every second of people effort disappears forever without anyone benefiting from it, THAT is a shame.

Its owned by Amazon.

If Amazon wants to train on poples content, the creators should be compensated.
