🎄💜 CATINTHECHAT FREE EMOTE
In solidarity as an artist on Twitch for 6+ years, who's always wanted to make a global/hype train emote I hope you love this version! Art is my everything and no AI crap will take that away from me.

Happy Holidays ☃️

If I see any of you using this AI slop emote in my chat, I will ban you.

Twitch's lack of common sense bewilders me.

Emote will be finished tomorrow~ ✨️🐱

Catinthechat to vote! 💅
Which cat-didate you prefer to choose, guys? 😼
The one that looks like it’s had too much stolen coffee, or the one drawn with feelings and naps? 🐈 🌿

Here’s free emote that we made with a lot of joy and love 😽 💕 ko-fi.com/s/1dc39145ab

I'd like to take a moment to address the god awful CatintheChat AI emote that many of us creators have spoken about, especially the valid concerns of artists on the platform. And since Twitch has again decided not to do the right thing, what I believe we can do in reply. 🧵

The first step is to simply ban the phrase. catinthechat is unavoidable if someone wants to post this thing in your chat, and automaticly denying its use while alerting yourself that it was used is the first step.

Twitch
‣ The grand majority of creators get a 50-50 cut.
‣ Categories are listed from most to least viewers, making discoverability difficult.
‣ It's been moving toward using more AI (ex: catinthechat emote), and may begin permitting or doing more data collection from its users (ex: OpenAI's Sora)

Because CatInTheChat was made by Twitch with AI, I have decided to redo it by drawing my cat Sammy in a Christmas hat instead!

Thank you so much for your support while I was drawing it on Vulpes stream! I had a lot of fun making it!

Hey y'all just an important reminder to everyone, DO NOT use the new "CatintheChat" emote that Twitch rolled out! It's 100% AI generated and I absolutely oppose this!

Please do me a favor and vote in this uservoice to put an end to this! twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92873...

Atleast those looks like real artists had been over instead of catinthechat

Dammit, Twitch did you HAVE to use genAI to make your CatInTheChat image…?

In case you don't know, Twitch streamers, you can add emotes to your Blocked Terms And Phrases list (under Moderation) to prevent them being used in your chat.

So you can block this AI slop ever being used in your stream by adding the exact emote name, i.e. "CatintheChat".

Twitch is under fire for its latest global emote, which appears to be AI-generated.

Just bringing this up here so that others can go give their opinion.

Twitch' 2024 xmas emote :catinthechat: is (reportedly) AI generated. There is a uservoice thread here to go tell them how we feel about that:

Also worth noting this isn't the first time Twitch have claimed to support artists and then immediately turned around and used AI. See the CatintheChat emote.

Am I right in assuming, we're all seeing this and just like "nah, you can keep it"?

Twitch used AI image generation to make one of their latest emotes- catinthechat

there's 10000 reasons this sucks, check out the uservoice where you can vote for twitch to not do this, and read what 100s of users have to say about this dumb decision.

I saw Pirate Software post a Tik tok about auto-timing out the AI art cat emote in MixItUp so I did it for Streamerbot. I can't add it here due to post limitations, but I made a public post on my ko-fi for yall to copy the import string and paste it into Streamerbot.
