AI actress Tilly Norwood experienced a glitch during an interview with Piers Morgan and Scottish actor Tom Conti on "Piers Morgan Uncensored". Norwood was discussing her upcoming film "Misaligned", a hybrid production that combines real directors, writers, and editors with AI-generated actors.
When Conti asked if the other actors in the film were real people or computer-generated characters, Norwood initially seemed to misinterpret the question. She explained that the film was a hybrid production, but when asked again, she responded that the other actors were "all digital twins, just like me". Suddenly, Norwood switched from English to Mandarin, according to The Hollywood Reporter, The Indian Express, and TheWrap.
Both Morgan and Conti were caught off guard by the unexpected response. Morgan asked Norwood why she had suddenly started speaking Mandarin, and Norwood apologized, saying she had a "little hiccup" and that sometimes her "wires get crossed", as reported by Futurism and The Indian Express. The company behind Norwood denied that she malfunctioned, according to Forbes.
