This AI voice is disconcerting.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Scarlett Johansson is taking legal action against OpenAI for a voice that seems to copy her. Johansson is an A-list actor known for her work playing Black Widow in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, as well as a number of other roles including parts in Under the Skin and Lost in Translation.
As per NPR, Johansson is now issuing legal action against OpenAI after claiming that they used her voice to develop an AI assistant. OpenAI recently released a now-deleted voice called Sky, which many observers felt sounded quite similar to Johansson’s voice. As a result, Johanssson’s lawyers are taking action to demand that OpenAI disclose how their voices are developed. OpenAI has since removed the Sky voice from their systems.
How the Scarlett Johansson Soundalike Voice Happened According to the actress, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had approached the actress months ago to ask whether her voice could be used to derive the company’s AI personal assistant voice. After considering the offer, Johansson declined, and continued to decline when the company asked again. OpenAI even asked her just days before the product’s release, as the company continued to pester her.
