The tech company has denied intentionally copying the actresses voice, despite the CEO appearing to suggest they had in a social media post.

Scarlett Johansson has said she was 'shocked' and 'angered' after OpenAI allegedly recreated her voice without her consent for a new ChatGPT system. The actress released a statement where she personally criticised the company's CEO Sam Altman for insinuating she was the voice named 'Sky' by posting the word 'her' on X, a reference to a film where she voiced an AI which a human fell in love with.

'As a result of their actions, I was forced to hire legal counsel, who wrote two letters to Mr Altman and OpenAI, setting out what they had done and asking them to detail the exact process by which they created the 'Sky' voice. Consequently, OpenAI reluctantly agreed to take down the 'Sky' voice.
