ai_sponge was[citation needed] a Twitch, Kick, and YouTube channel that used artificial intelligence (AI) to generate livestream content featuring characters from the animated SpongeBob SquarePants franchise.[1][2][3][4][5][6] The livestream, which launched on 5 March 2023,[7][3][4] used 3D models of SpongeBob characters within Unity and Uberduck AI-generated voices based on the show's voice actors.[7] Viewers could prompt the character's conversation topics through the channel's Discord server, which often led to inappropriate results.[citation needed] On 26 July 2023, ai_sponge was officially discontinued as a result of multiple copyright strikes and the discontinuation of public Uberduck voices.[citation needed]
