“Shame about these people”, an actress completely created by the unworthy Hollywood

There is a lot of talk about a new actress in Hollywood. Your secret? It was created by artificial intelligence, which causes a wave of indignation among his fellow and bones.

Called Tilly Norwood, this virtual actress was imagined by the study of Xicoia, with the proclaimed ambition to make her “the next scarlett Johansson or Natalie Portman.” And several agencies already seem to be pushed at the door to represent the actress, the company’s founder, Eline Van Der Velden revealed last week.

Enough to arouse fears about the replacement of artists with AI, who partly motivated the vast strikes that have paralyzed Hollywood in 2023. Many actors have climbed into the niche on social networks in recent days.

“I hope that all the actors represented by the agent who make him fall. What horror,” Melissa Barrera, horror movie star criticized on Instagram Shout AND Shout 6.

“What a shame with these people,” said Mara Wilson, the interpreter of Matilda. “They stole the faces of hundreds of young women to create this ‘actress’ ia. They are not creators. They are identity thieves.”

Controversy

The controversy forced Mrs. van der Velden to react. Tilly Norwood “is not a replacement for a human being, but a creative work,” he justified on Sunday on Instagram.

“Like animation, puppets or special effects have opened new possibilities without eliminating anything in the game live, AI offers another way to imagine and build stories,” he said, remembering to be actress himself.

For her, the actors created by AI “must be judged as part of their own gender, for their own merits, instead of comparing themselves directly with human actors.”

The use of AI has become increasingly visible in recent months in creative industries, every time it generates controversy. The virtual group “The Velvet Sundown” exceeded one million listeners on the Spotify transmission platform this summer. In its August edition, Vogue magazine also published an advertising with a fictional model, generated by AI.
