Twitch added an opt-out setting for Amazon’s use of Twitch channel content to train Amazon generative AI content models. The opt-out was introduced more than two years after an Amazon executive confirmed Amazon was using Twitch content for AI training. Users who opt out prevent Twitch streams, VODs, clips, stream chats, and channel images/text from being used for future training of Amazon models.
Twitch will use streamers’ channel content to train Amazon’s generative AI models unless users opt out in settings. The opt-out toggle appears in the bottom of users’ security settings and defaults to being allowed. Users who disable it will prevent their streams, VODs, clips, stream chats, and channel text/images from being used in future Amazon model training, though some AI features like AutoMod and captioning may still use data without training.
Lovable confirmed it raised another round at a $13.3 billion valuation, collecting a total Series C investment led by Menlo Ventures and the Scaleup Europe Fund.

As a result, it expands funding for its backend and broader vibe-coding business, including its in-house trained AI model and growing Google Cloud usage, while keeping investor participation wide.
Sequoia Capital announced a partnership with Preview, an AI-native workspace for quality video creation and production. The firm said it would lead Preview’s seed round, partnering with co-founders Stefan Fejes and Veljko Tornjanski. Preview’s platform is positioned as a unified timeline and canvas that lets teams generate with any model and track assets end to end, replacing fragmented legacy tooling.
CGTrader found that AI-generated 3D models now make up one in six uploads on its marketplace but generate minimal sales. AI-generated assets account for $1 out of $90 in revenue, and 4% of 3D-printing buyers said AI works well. CGTrader says the mismatch between upload volume and demand is pushing it to prioritize quality and performance signals in discovery and ranking rather than raw quantity.
D’Addario admitted that AI music made with Suno was used in a recent promotional video. The admission came after an update dated July 29th. The company corrected an Instagram post that had previously denied generative AI use, changing its public stance from denial to acknowledgment of AI involvement.
STRGY AI raised €1M in angel funding to scale StrategyOS, its AI-powered strategy execution platform. The funding round totals €1 million. The company plans to expand its commercial team, deepen enterprise customer relationships, and continue product development with more product launches later this year.
Preview launched an AI-native video creation and production platform that combines a video timeline with an infinite canvas and lets teams generate with any model while tracking assets. The company says more than 100 studios are already using Preview. As a result, generation, review, and production can move into a single collaborative workspace with source records for legal clearance, instead of being split across separate legacy tools.
