    This doesn’t seem like a glitch, I suspect it was an operator error or something.

    She started repeating the same answer. Then i think someone tried hitting the skip button and either it flipped the wrong flag or it changed languages. Reminded me of the meta cooking demo earlier this year

      Totally agree, but they actually did a pretty solid job of making that distinction in the article. They put “actress” and “she” in quotes to begin with, and then switched to referring to the thing as “it.” They even put the word “film” in quotes, since it’s clearly not a film. I was surprised that the tone of this article was so critical, it’s heartening.

        I suppose “film” is still accurate. It’s still a movie, it’s just an animated movie no different from the “live action” remake of the Lion King.

          Ehhh could probably be argued either way, but whatever you may think of the live action Lion King, it was made by real people from start to finish, with people doing the animating, and actual human voices doing the acting. Whatever this video is is not that, IMO.

            Why a film is a film isn’t decided on how it was made. I don’t imagine it’s a good one though.

    Why are these things being called actresses. It’s literally “ai video starts randomly speaking Cantonese”. It’s not an actress. It’s not acting.

    Co-founder of Particle6, Eline van der Velden, gave an explanation for her short-circuiting bot to Deadline, saying: “Tilly can be a bit of a show-off - I’m guessing she just wanted to show her language skills as most of her interviews to date have been in English… She is autonomous after all.”

    Ah, yes, sure.

      Maybe the model heard Tom Conti’s “mm-ah” noises and interpreted them as a Chinese vocalization? Just one of many, many errors that make this thing “not ready for prime time.” Looks like Hollywood studios will just have to keep dealing with those annoying, profit-making human actors!

        Yeah that’s what I thought. It switches right after and paused for a long time, like it had a new prompt.

    Imagine if the news started interviewing the 20 questions genie (Akinator). This is software and it can run on my laptop, I can use whatever picture I like. How they are treating it is actually insane.

    They are interviewing a chat bot system prompt and a memory txt fill that’s probably not even 50 lines long. That’s all that seperates this one from the next.

    Clanker demonstrates complete absence of awareness during interview when she inexplicably started speaking Cantonese.
