Amazon and Twitch Sued Over Use of Livestreams for AI Training Without Streamer Consent

Amazon is facing a class-action lawsuit alleging it used Twitch livestream videos to train AI models without obtaining streamers' consent or providing compensation. The lawsuit challenges recent changes to Twitch's Terms of Service that expanded content usage rights to include AI training, arguing these were not adequately disclosed or authorized. Twitch currently offers an opt-out option for AI training on a per-stream basis, which plaintiffs claim is insufficient to protect streamers' rights.
