Tilly Norwood’s press tour is going about as well as you’d expect for an AI
techcrunch ·
Tilly Norwood, an AI-generated “actress,” is having a difficult first press tour. Its creator, Particle6 Group, made Norwood available for 75 simultaneous interviews with journalists, during which it has reportedly made numerous mistakes. In a recorded interview with Piers Morgan and actor Tom Conti, Norwood misunderstood a question about the cast of its film, “Misaligned.” It then stopped speaking and unexpectedly switched to Chinese for more than 10 seconds. Norwood apologized afterward, describing the incident as a technical “hiccup.” The article suggests that Norwood’s awkward performance may be attracting attention because people are making fun of it, possibly as part of a calculated promotional strategy.
