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.

    Honestly I think it might be best to simply ban AI actors looking like humans.
    I fear it may cause even more unrealistic standards than having almost perfect actors, and people may feel even less as part of a society than they do now.

    I can see how it can be practical and cheaper and all that, but if the depiction of humans stop to be actual human, I think we may be walking into a whole new set of problems in the future.

      CGI actors, too.

      And stunt men, if you’re going to depict a famous actor doing something dangerous it’s false advertising to have someone else doing it for him.

      We should probably ban makeup as well.
