Whoopi Goldberg is the latest celebrity to share her thoughts on controversial AI actress Tilly Norwood.

During a recent episode of The View, the veteran actress detailed the obvious difference between Norwood and others— the first being humans “move differently,” adding “our faces move differently, our bodies move differently.” Goldberg got candid about the “unfair advantage,” but welcomes the potential challenge.

The 69-year-old explained, “The problem with this, in my humble opinion, is that you are suddenly up against something that’s been generated with 5,000 other actors. It’s got Bette Davis’ attitude, it’s got Humphrey Bogart’s lips… And so it’s a little bit of an unfair advantage. But you know what? Bring it on. You can always tell them from us. We move differently, our faces move differently, our bodies move differently.”

She also stated with a hint of sarcasm: “After many human actors called for a boycott against agencies who sign AI actors, the studio claims Tilly is not a replacement for a human being, but a creative work, and AI characters should be judged as part of their own genre, rather than compared directly with human actors.”

Goldberg acknowledges that the AI performer “isn’t seamless yet,” but feels “maybe in two or three years,” it will be. The comedian concluded: “Hopefully, we’ll be able to hold on because what this means is AI in the workplace — not just my workplace, but in every industry… Some industries are using AI now. People talk about people are so lonely they don’t have a connection, if you stick with this, with AI, you won’t have any connection to anything but your phone.”

Norwood first made headlines when actor, comedian and producer Eline Van der Velden announced at the Zurich Summit that her AI creation was gaining interest from talent agents wanting to allegedly sign her.

In defense of Norwood’s creation, Van der Velden stated: “I see AI not as a replacement for people, but as a new tool, a new paintbrush. Just as animation, puppetry, or CGI opened fresh possibilities without taking away from live acting, AI offers another way to imagine and build stories. I’m an actor myself, and nothing – certainly not an AI character – can take away the craft or joy of human performance.”

However, back in July during Broadcast International, Van der Velden said she wanted Norwood “to be the next Scarlett Johansson or Natalie Portman.”

SAG-AFTRA addressed the controversy in a statement on Tuesday (Sept. 30).

“The union is opposed to the replacement of human performers by synthetics,” it read. “To be clear, ‘Tilly Norwood’ is not an actor, it’s a character generated by a computer program that was trained on the work of countless professional performers — without permission or compensation.”

SAG-AFTRA added: “It has no life experience to draw from, no emotion and, from what we’ve seen, audiences aren’t interested in watching computer-generated content untethered from the human experience. It doesn’t solve any ‘problem’ — it creates the problem of using stolen performances to put actors out of work, jeopardizing performer livelihoods and devaluing human artistry.”

It also warned producers that “they may not use synthetic performers without complying with our contractual obligations.”

Norwood is just the latest example of the AI threat that rattling the TV and film industry.
