TL;DR · WeSearch summary

Entirely AI-generated streamers have racked up big audiences over the past few years.

Meanwhile, streams of Anthropic's Claude Sonnet playing Game Boy Color classic Pokemon Red have also racked up healthy numbers.But even if you're attached to doing things the old-fashioned way, AI may still be able to make you a better streamer, supposedly.

Meanwhile, streams of Anthropic's Claude Sonnet playing Game Boy Color classic Pokemon Red have also racked up healthy numbers.But even if you're attached to doing things the old-fashioned way, AI may still be able to make you a better streamer, supposedly. Amazon-owned Twitch is now testing what it calls an AI Stream Coach.
