Hollywood stars are speaking out in protest after an “AI actress” named Tilly Norwood attracted agency interest.

Norwood is an entirely virtual creation owned by Xicoia, a talent studio attached to the AI production company Particle6.

Deadline reported yesterday that several Hollywood talent agents are interested in signing Norwood.

    Eventually it’s gonna happen.

    We’re not there yet, and we’ll start seeing it from the bottom up when it actually happens.

    It’s already used for crowds, next is extras walking down the street, then once it gets to speaking lines the stars will have to worry. The won’t be replaced till last, but eventually making a movie won’t involve a single camera.

      We might actually get a proper indie scene. AI is going to pull us out of the Hollywood bullshit era.

      Soulless marvel character showcases disguised as feature films won’t cut it anymore.

        I already don’t believe it should cut it, but the masses are the stupid masses.

        We might actually get a proper indie scene. AI is going to pull us out of the Hollywood bullshit era.

        And how do you propose this would happen?

          If anybody can build a scene in blender with some rough models and untextured puppets, then generate over that into something that looks like movie quality, the studios just lost their whole industry.

          They have a monopoly because of the costs associated, AI destroys those costs essentially. It’s also the main reason why these “talent agencies” will fail, AI actors are going to be a dime a dozen.

      It’s being used by the government to fake the president. If it can fool the dumb country bumpkins it can be used in Hollywood. Future media is gonna be lifeless and uncanny.
