Scarlett Johansson AI Voice Controversy Sparks Debate on Persona Rights
TL;DR Summary
Researchers at Arizona State University found that OpenAI's now-pulled "Sky" voice assistant bears a striking resemblance to Scarlett Johansson's voice, more so than 98% of other actresses analyzed. Despite OpenAI's claims that the similarity was unintentional, Johansson is outraged, especially since OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman had previously reached out to her to license her voice. The debate continues over whether the resemblance was a deliberate design choice or a coincidence.
