If the creature type of a Sliver changes so it's no longer a Sliver, it will no longer be affected by its own ability. Its ability will continue to affect other Sliver creatures.
wotc1 Jul 2013
Abilities that Slivers grant, as well as power/toughness boosts, are cumulative. However, for some abilities, like flying, having more than one instance of the ability doesn't provide any additional benefit.

Note that the first ability can affect any kind of creature, but the second ability can affect only Slivers. Both abilities can affect players.
