Twitch Rolls Back 2-Day Nudity Policy Due to AI Image Concerns
- Twitch reversed its policy allowing "artistic nudity" after just 2 days, citing AI's ability to create realistic images that are hard to distinguish from photos
- The policy change had allowed fictional depictions of nudity if properly labeled, but Twitch now says any depictions of real or fictional nudity will not be allowed
- Some streamers had already created content violating the short-lived policy before it was rolled back
- Other recent changes to Twitch's sexual content policy, like allowing highlighting of breasts/buttocks with a "Sexual Themes" label, are still in effect
- Games focused on nudity, porn, or sexual violence remain completely prohibited; incidental nudity in games only needs a "Mature" label
