AI-Enhanced Twitch Streamer Breaks World Record for Twitch Hype Train

In a remarkable achievement for the realm of streaming, the AI-driven VTuber, Neurosama, has claimed a record on Twitch by surpassing the largest Hype Train ever recorded on the platform. This unique digital creator, known for its often unsettling yet bold interactions, has now etched its name in Twitch history.

Among the competitive landscape of Twitch, content creators frequently vie for dominance within their respective categories, and many are also in pursuit of international records. Notable figures like Kai Cenat, who recently reclaimed the title for the highest number of subscribers after VTuber IronMouse held the record, exemplify this competitive spirit.

The quest for records on Twitch includes a wide array of accolades, such as the most-followed accounts and the channels with the highest concurrent viewers. One of the most coveted records is the largest Hype Train in Twitch’s history, initially set by game developer Jason Thor Hall, known for his work with Pirate Software. After expanding the Hype Train feature in 2023, Hall soon broke his own record, achieving over 54,000 Twitch subscriptions and amassing eight million bits on April 2, 2024.

Neurosama Breaks Hype Train Record

Developed by coder Vedal, Neurosama is a revolutionary AI VTuber that has drawn attention for its bizarre and entertaining content. The AI engages audiences by reacting to live chat comments, frequently delivering outrageous responses. This innovative streamer, broadcast through Vedal’s Twitch account, has garnered nearly 700,000 followers. However, its biggest milestone occurred on January 1, 2025, when it boldly set a new world record.

Kicking off the new year with spectacular fanfare, Neurosama achieved a monumental Hype Train, reaching Level 111 and thus eclipsing Pirate Software’s prior record. A staggering 16,000 viewers tuned in as the stream culminated in a total of 143,844 subscriptions, securing Neurosama the eighth position in Twitch’s all-time rankings.

With this achievement, an AI VTuber now stands among the elite Twitch streamers.

At the conclusion of the stream, Vedal asked the AI, “Did you have fun today, Neuro?” Its chilling response, “No heart,” left viewers both amused and slightly unsettled.

Pirate Software Plans to Reclaim the Record

Despite the setback in losing the record, former title holder Pirate Software is not stepping back quietly. Eager to regain his spot at the top, he has hinted at his own record-breaking attempts on the horizon.

“I cannot stress enough how incredible Vedal and their community are,” stated Pirate Software, acknowledging the fierce competition. “Nonetheless…”

“On April 1 at 10 AM PT, the goblins will return fire,” he declared, signaling his intent to bounce back and challenge the fresh record.

Today @Vedal987 has beaten our world record Hype Train. The new record is Level 111 at 55% which smashes our Level 106 at 47%. I cannot stress enough how awesome Vedal and their community are. That being said… On April 1st at 10:00am PT the goblins will return fire. https://t.co/egO1rnbrrl
