#AIActress Tilly Norwood Condemned by SAG-AFTRA: Tilly ‘Is Not an Actor… It Has No Life Experience to Draw From, No Emotion’

by Zack Sharf, September 30, 2025

Quote by Emily Blunt: "Does it disappoint me? I don’t know how to quite answer it, other than to say how terrifying this is. No, are you serious? That’s an AI? Good Lord, we’re screwed. That is really, really scary, Come on, agencies, don’t do that. Please stop. Please stop taking away our human connection."

Happy Birthday, #KateBush! (Who foresaw a future with humans dependent on AI companions!)

"As the people here grow colder
I turn to my computer
And spend my evenings with it, like a friend
I was loading a new programme
I had ordered from a magazine

Are you lonely, are you lost?
This voice console is a must

I press execute
Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired
I bring you love and deeper understanding
Hello, I know that you're unhappy
I bring you love and deeper understanding

Well, I'd known felt such pleasure
Nothing else seemed to matter
I neglected my bodily needs
I did not eat, I did not sleep
The intensity increasing
'Til my family found me and intervened

But I was lonely, I was lost
Oh, so lost without my little black box

I pick up the phone and press execute
Hello, I know that you've been feeling tired
I bring you love and deeper understanding
Hello, I know that you're unhappy
I bring you love and deeper understanding

(Hello)
Love
(Hello)
Love

I turn to my computer
Like a friend

Hello
Hello

I need deeper understanding
Give me deeper understanding

A little love for me
A little love for me

Need a little love, a little love for me
They'll never give a little love for me

Bring me deeper understanding
Bring me my little black box

Hello
Hello..."

Are smartphones bad for us? Five world experts answer

"In 2007, #SteveJobs presented the #iPhone to the public. Several months later, the day the phones went on sale, the Guardian published an article headlined 'iPhone set to struggle'.

"'Apple’s iPhone combines a phone, music and video player with web and email capabilities, but researchers found demand for these converged devices was lowest in affluent countries,' the article said.

"Whoops.

"But despite their sudden ubiquity, there’s still a lot we don’t know about how our #smartphones are affecting us. Are they alienating people from each other, or helping them to connect with others? Do they affect children differently than adults? And how do we step away from our phones if our whole lives are on them?"
