7 Jul - Just when many thought that she was gone for good, it was revealed that the controversial "AI actor" Tilly Norwood is back, and she is back with a first feature film role.

The news was announced by Particle 6, the studio that had brought Tilly alive, stating that the AI actor will be playing a role in "Misaligned," which they described as a "hybrid production" that combines both traditional film and TV creatives alongside AI specialists.

"AI can support premium narrative filmmaking, but only with substantial amounts of human craft, skill, judgement and time. That's not a limitation of the technology. That's the point. The filmmakers who thrive in the next decade will be the ones who bring decades of storytelling instinct to these new tools, and Misaligned is where we put that to work at feature scale," said founder Eline van der Velden.

Set inside the "Tillyverse," it follows Tilly, a bodyless, identity-less AI being who has access to everyone else's lived human experiences. However, things get complicated when a seductive rogue bot from the dark web convinces her to abandon her guardrails and begin developing desires, impulses and ambitions of her own. The more terrifyingly human she becomes, the more famous she gets and, significantly, Tilly begins to develop shame that her very being has been built on the whole of humanity.

It is noted that the creation of Tilly Norwood received multiple backlash from Hollywood when it was announced last year, with SAG-AFTRA expressing condemnation, stressing that the AI entity was created based on the work of real-life actors who did not give their permission.
