      It appears that the voice now defaults to Juniper when using Sky. It's the exact same thing as choosing the Juniper option. My guess is that it falls back to this voice due to Sky's voice being disabled as a redirection method to prevent a nonexistent or broken voice mode. This also makes sense since Juniper is the only other female voice available.

What can I assist you with today?” You can ask it to change the tone and style of the original sky, which does resemble some of the old voice .. but still not as good.

      Scarlett's voice is different with more subtle down tones -sometimes she has this raspy sexy voice that is so characteristic of her- and in the movie "Her" she is less bubbly than Sky. But there is a similar timber, tone and vibe. I can see the reasons for a controversy.

      This has been a big drama in Skyrim modding for a very long time now. So many people want to expand NPCs in the game, and there's a longstanding argument over whether or not it's right to clone an actor's voice without their permission. But the way I always saw this ending was "Well, you can't prove it's not an impressionist", and ultimately we're going to see impressionists banned because of voice ownership rights. And as stated, yeah, imagine uploading a video on RUclips and you get flagged for impersonating an actor you've never heard of.
      I'm kind of glad to see it blowing up as an issue, as it means the debate might finally come to a consensus soon, hopefully shut down before it snowballs out of control.

    They obviously chose a voice actress that sounded a lot like SJ's voice. They also obviously modeled the personality off of the AI character SJ played. Sky's voice inflection, mannerisms, and timbre were so similar I find it funny anyone is saying they weren't.
    That said they didn't do anything wrong. The voices are not identical and if they really did the work to create that voice without directly using SJ's voice, then they should be in the clear. I really hope they put the voice back to how it sounded because I love how it sounds.

So there is not much to protect about Trademark " her" you can not copyright tone of a voice, or way of taking, you can copyright only Recordings, writtings, so, if Open Ai havnt used recordings of S.J, its OK, but even if recordings of S,J, were used were these recordings taged, FORBIDEN to use for AI modeling?

      i don't think the final form has been released properly yet. I asked for the voice to change speed and it said it can't currently do that. But my guess is in the coming months we'll be able to use third party tools (because the whole A.I has full API access) and have those tools can provide entire characters that sound like an actor or actress but probably using approximate names to avoid getting sued (space princess for princess Leia for example) But its that final UI where we'll be able to tune the character as you would a character in an RPG dragging sliders that I can't wait for.

      it is wild to me that they didn't set this up long before getting permission to use Scarlet in a promo bit. It would have been funny. They could have done an official voice based on her voice with enough money thrown her way but maybe OpenAI aren't quite ready to have that kind of news that the robots are taking our actors/actresses voices now! They walked a pretty fine line getting this positive reaction. Google failed to do that a few years back with a conversational A.I that could make phone calls for you.

      That's... not a lie. The AI voices are currently not the full multimodal model of 4o, they're still the old speech-to-text-to-text-to-speech pipeline. So the model has no way of knowing what its voice sounds like, or if it's changed. It's not a lie, as far as the AI knows, its voice hasn't changed.
