Emily Blunt among Hollywood stars outraged over 'AI actor' Tilly Norwood
Hollywood stars like Emily Blunt are outraged over the emergence of 'AI actor' Tilly Norwood, a synthetic performer being pitched to talent agencies by its Dutch creators. The Screen Actors Guild has condemned the AI creation, stating that it lacks life experience and emotion, and poses a threat to human actors' jobs and the value of human artistry.
