N3on and Sneako clash over the AI streamer controversy
The dispute began after N3on announced that an AI version of himself would continue streaming on Kick around the clock, even when he was asleep or away from the platform. He presented the experiment as a major step for online content creation and described himself as the “first AI streamer in the world.”
The announcement drew plenty of criticism, and Sneako was among those who objected. Rather than keeping his concerns private, Sneako launched into a lengthy public criticism of N3on and questioned why the streamer needed another source of revenue.
