Tilly Norwoodthe AI-generated “actor” who sparked backlash from Hollywood last year, will star in a feature film — a first for the character. The film is titled Misaligned, and it is a comedy-drama film Described by Deadline As a “coming-of-age story filled with existential AI chaos”.
Norwood Creators Particle6 Productions, the London-based AI studio developing the project, is said to have brought together 30 TV and film creatives, filmmakers, actors and technicians since opening its doors and has “retrained and upskilled” the crew to bring the AI platform and processes to filmmaking.
Bringing together production crews with scientists and engineers specializing in artificial intelligence to streamline the film production process and reduce costs is a concept first relayed to CNET at this year’s show. Amnesty International conference lot. Now Particle6 appears to be putting that idea to the test.
“Deviant” is set in a surreal story world called The Tillyverse. You’ll follow Tilly, a bodyless, identityless artificial intelligence with access to everyone else’s lived human experiences.
According to the synopsis, things get complicated when “a seductive rogue bot from the Dark Web convinces her to abandon her guardrails and begin developing her own desires, motivations, and ambitions. The more terrifying humanity she becomes, the more famous she becomes, and, remarkably, Tilly begins to feel ashamed that her being has been built upon all of humanity.”
Elin van der Velden, CEO of Particle6, who created Tilly and starred in the BBC 3 series Miss Holland, said of the project: “Now, with our first feature film, we will not only showcase the latest tools and their applications, but we will also help the traditional filmmakers joining the crew upskill and move into a world where AI will play an increasingly important role. We are passionate about helping people develop the AI skills that will ensure they – and the industry – continue to thrive.”
