In a recent live stream, Pokimane spoke candidly about her thoughts on AI streamers or Vtubers, making some very insightful points. For those who don’t know,Vtubers are a new type of online entertainer that has taken the internet by storm. These digital personalities are avatars that are controlled by real people, and they often stream themselves playing video games or talking to their fans. While they may seem like a novel concept, Vtubers have actually been around for quite a few years - however, it wasn’t until recently that they started to gain popularity.

In a recent stream, while interacting with viewers, Pokimane was asked by one viewer if her stream is educational. Pokimane replied that her stream is similar to ChatGPT, which led to a discussion about AI streamers and their future. After explaining the ChatGPT to her viewers, she went on to compare it to something similar to talking to Google. She then came up with a theory of ChatGPT being converted into an AI streamer, which can act like a Vtuber. However,Twitchsensation Pokimane also states that she believes AI streaming is a concept for the future.
In response, a viewer said that such an AI streamer already exists, which surprised her. Theidea of humans being replaced by artificial intelligence (AI) as streamersis a divisive one. AI streamers will be able to provide a more consistent and entertaining experience for viewers, as they will not be subject to the same fatigue and burnout that human streamers often experience. However, AI streamers will lack the warmth and personality that human streamers can provide.
There’s no doubt that artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly evolving and growing more sophisticated every day; and with the rapid expansion of AI capabilities, it’s clear that this technology is here to stay and will only become more integral in human lives. Businesses and organizations are beginning to harness the power of AI in various ways, from automating tasks to providing more personalized experiences for customers. The same is true forstreamers who are already using artificial intelligenceto help with content creation and engagement, and in the future, it’s sure to evolve.
