AI-generated avatar Tilly Norwood glitches on live TV, switches to Cantonese
The AI-generated digital actor Tilly Norwood malfunctioned during live television interviews, unexpectedly switching to Cantonese and delivering unrelated remarks, which prompted criticism and ridicule on social media. The glitch was observed on multiple broadcasts, including a recent interview on a UK talk show.
The problem first surfaced during a live interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, where the avatar began speaking Cantonese after misunderstanding a question, leading host Piers Morgan to query the malfunction and Particle6’s CEO to comment on the technical issue. A similar language-switch glitch appeared on a press-tour interview promoting the avatar’s debut film, as reported by several technology outlets.
