Tilly Norwood, an AI-generated character created by Particle6 Group, has yet to appear in a single film or television show. However, she has released her debut music video for "Take the Lead," which combines her AI-powered lyrics and vocals with a visual featuring 18 real humans. The video is set to be released ahead of the Academy Awards. In a statement issued by SAG-AFTRA, the group rebuked the idea of considering Norwood an "actor" due to his AI-trained performances, highlighting the issue of using stolen performances to put actors out of work and devalue human artistry. The music video has been viewed over 41,000 times on YouTube.
