London-based “actress” Tilly Norwood isn’t real — she’s an AI creation from Particle6’s Xicoia division. Introduced at the Zurich Film Festival, Norwood already has 40,000 Instagram followers and is seeking an agent.

The debate highlights the growing tension between AI innovations and human creativity in entertainment.
