Bring the latest in space exploration to the surface of your ceramics. In this workshop, we will use low-fire glaze on earthenware to paint a plate resembling Earthset on the Moon, as captured in NASA's Artemis Il mission earlier this year. Glaze opacity, layering, mark-making, masking, depth and sgraffito will be demonstrated for a convincing yet stylized depiction of outer space.
These techniques can be adapted to illustrate a number of other celestial objects and landscapes
on ceramic."

I know y'all have seen this reposted a lot today, but an additional note for fellow streamers: Make sure you disable this on your bot accounts. I have a second twitch account just for streamerbot messages, and had to opt out on that on that, too.

If you don't want Amazon using your Twitch content to train their AI, you'll need change a setting because it is "on" by default. Go to your settings (account settings, not in the creator dashboard), Go to the "Security and Privacy" tab, and scroll to the bottom. Turn off "Training for GenAI".

Image of Twitch menu option setting for Training for Generative AI. setting is turned on in the image with an arrow showing where to turn this off.
Text of the option reads
Allow your channel content to train generative AI content models at Amazon. Turning this off does not opt you out of Twitch and Amazon using your channel content for other purposes described in the Twitch Privacy Notice, including using AI-supported Twitch features that benefit the community by facilitating streamer growth and monetization (such as real-time sponsorship campaign assistance), viewer discovery (such as recommendations), and community safety (such as AutoMod).

Twitch isn't making Gen AI training *opt-in* because no one would voluntarily choose to opt in. Instead, they are offering an opt-out option.

6) All that said, I think I'm going to take the month of July off from streaming. I would like to take some time to get settled in the new place while also reflecting on my life and the directions I want to take it. It'll be a much needed slow down period. Finally. 😌

4) Stepping away from the fundraising topic... I moved this month! It was... a lot to deal with, but I'm fully in the new space. That said, I don't have internet at the moment. There was no modem in the new apartment, so I have to call the ISP. But also...
