AI actress Tilly Norwood lands her first movie role

A virtual character named Tilly Norwood, created by UK studio Particle6's AI division Xicoia, is set to star in her first film 'Misaligned'. The movie is a comedy-drama about an AI without a real body or childhood, who starts developing human desires after a rogue robot convinces her to let go of her limits. The film will be made by both traditional filmmakers and AI experts. The founder says it's funny and chaotic, but also explores identity and fear of AI. However, the US actors' union SAG-AFTRA has criticized this kind of synthetic actors, saying they steal from real performers and hurt human art.
