In this episode of "Normal World," Dave Landau, 1/4 Black Garrett, and Angela open with headlines that range from a bizarre FBI mishap at a Montana animal shelter to the strange turns of daily news. The panel then dives into the controversy surrounding Tilly Norwood, the world’s first AI-generated “actress,” unveiled at the Zurich Film Festival. They examine the ethical concerns raised by talent agencies considering representation for a digital performer, highlighting the lingering tension from the SAG-AFTRA strikes. From there, the conversation expands into a broader look at artificial intelligence — its creative limitations, its impact on originality, and the risk of technology reshaping entire industries. Shifting gears, the hosts turn to conservative activist Brilyn Hollyhand, questioning his sudden rise and drawing comparisons to the kind of branding that blurs authenticity in politics. The discussion then moves into public art, as the group reacts to a series of controversial celebrity statues, exploring how tributes can sometimes drift into unintentional parody. Today’s guests on "Normal World" are Genevieve Clinton and Austin Robertson. Sponsors Craftco Buy online at flyingacespirits.com — use code BLAZE for free shipping. Learn more about your ad choices.
