AI Actress Tilly Norwood Switches to Chinese During Piers Morgan Interview

Analysed 19 Sept 2026·4 sources analysed·Scotland, United Kingdom·Technology
AI Actress Tilly Norwood Switches to Chinese During Piers Morgan InterviewPreviousNext

AI-generated actress Tilly Norwood unexpectedly switched from English to Cantonese or Mandarin during a Piers Morgan interview, surprising the host and actor Tom Conti. Norwood described the incident as a "hiccup" with "wires getting crossed." Her creators, Particle 6, denied it was a malfunction, suggesting the switch demonstrated her multilingual abilities. The interview version, called "Talking Tilly," is distinct from the AI tools used for her acting roles and is designed for public appearances.
