Scarlett Johansson says OpenAI used her voice without permission

- Scarlett Johansson is accusing the parent company of OpenAI for using a likeness of her voice without her permission. Johansson says she refused a request to voice the companies’ virtual assistant, Sky, and was “shocked, angered and in disbelief” when she later heard how it sounds. NBC’s Kaylee Hartung reports for TODAY.

If they used an actor, let that actor come forth and speak to disprove the accusations.
They don't need any actors. It could be completely synthesized from scorch.
You should check out pie ai assistant that sounds a bit more like Scarlett Johansson than a ChatGPT one
@@magnetospin whether they need one or not, they claimed that they had one so any alternatives are moot.
@@eBaggy7They said that they would not reveal the actor's identity in order to protect their anonymity.
@@AnonUnknown456we’ll find out in court unless they settle
The first time I heard the voice I was like hey that is Scarlett Johansson
Yeah it sounds like Scarjo. It was meant to. I mean are we really surprised a bunch of tech bros would want to recreate that?
this lawsuit is interesting for the future of ai in general… it’s one of the first times we see someone who is prob powerful enough (given her disney lawsuit) to stand up to tech infringing on creativity and likeness. i’m interested to see how this will play out… and with the voices played back to back, it sounds like scarjo for suren
Just wild. Life imitating art. I’d be soooo disturbed if I was Scarlett herself.. OpenAI saying it was never intended to sound like her is BS.
They knew what they were doing... we already have commercials with a m9rgan freeman impersonator. Now they won't even pay an impersonator, they'll just do an AI generated voice and cut everyone out.
A lot of women could sound like Scarlett with enough practice. There’s nothing wrong with that. She needs to get over herself
@@Xavierwolfgangshe needs to get over herself, until someone tells you to get over yourself
It doesn't.......
@kybed
I’m sure most would be flattered to have AI to modeled after their voice. She just wants some spot light attention, because AI is a hot topic.
We all know is a marketing move. They knew that they would have to take the voice out.
Sue them
They hired an actress who spoke with her own normal speaking voice. I understand she sounds like ScarJo - but if this truly is this actresses normal speaking voice then it would be very weird to tell an actress "sorry you don't actually own your voice because you sound like ScarJo" - that seems wrong legally, morally, ethically. Are we going to start telling upcoming actors and actressess "sorry, not only do you need to change your name, but you need to change your voice."
Devils advocate I guess is if they can prove OpenAI chose that voice actor specifically because she sounds like Scar Jo, but I still think that’d be a shaky case at best
Scarlett is a rude individual.
They literally asked Scarlett Johansson to do the voice, and she turned them down, so they "allegedly" got someone else who just happens to sound almost exactly like Scarlett Johansson. It's a pretty terrible look any way you slice it, and OpenAI know it. That's why they immediately took the Sky voice down without a fight.
@@sbowesuk981 It doesn't even sound like her. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills reading all these comments
@@marksanchez7323 You are crazy. It does sound like her.
That doesn't sound like Scarlett. Scarlett's voice cracks.
Seriously. It's not even close.
It's all naritive.
It sounds like Meghan Markle
It's not the voice, it's the mannerisms. And they contacted her to license her voice.
@@RR-ds4sdso then what’s the problem? You can’t sue someone over mannerisms. Many people have similar voices and mannerisms. They said they have another voice actor who that voice belongs to. Can she sue Scarlet Johansson for sounding like her?
People are not as unique as they think there are. Out of 8 billion people, there are gonna be people who look like you, sound like you, act like you etc. I don't see a reasonable way someone can claim to own their "likeness".
Oh please… They tried to dupe Scarjo because the guy is admittedly obsessed with ‘her’ and wanted his ai to sound like the ai in that film.
And they hired someone to do a scarjo impression. Even if that is also her ‘natural voice’ she was hired because she sounded like Scarlett.
@@birdiewolf3497 I don't think you can sue someone because they hired somebody else to do a voice, however similar to yours it may sound.
I guess we just have to see if OpenAI can prove it was someone else's voice.
It’s like when I call my sister and she sounds like our mom! 😅 should my mom sue?
@@birdiewolf3497 Granted all of what you just said is true. ScarJo still has ZERO lawsuit here. Like nova said, you can't sue a company for using someone who has a similar voice to you. To me this falls in line with Lindsay Lohan trying to sue GTA. If your arguement meant she actually had grounds for a lawsuit, than any actress who looks or sounds like ScarJo is basically out of a career because anyone who works with them could be sued in the same way. It's nonsense.
Of course. But after trying to hire the person, finding another person that sounds like her, is a dirty move.
"Without that body what's the point of listening?" - Colin Jost on SNL
Classic Che-writen swap joke... Colin knew he was in trouble when he saw Scarlett's pic on the monitor... ;-)
That body indeed!

@@user-kj1hz9yh2rit is Hollywood though, so they probably won’t be married for too long
They are so dishonest. That says it all.
Sky doesn't sound anywhere near Scarlett. Listen to audio sample comparisons of the two.
@@AnonUnknown456 You need to check your ears... Or you're a bot.
@@mrki731what if some actress who happens to sound like her voiced an assistant? Will she be banned from voicing because she sounds like some big personality? Does that mean you don't own the rights of your voice?
the thing here is personal. Surely the one responsible for choosing the voice has a crush on scarlet or something. She refused to do the voice, then go choose another one. But no, he wanted one that sounded like her.
@@okman9684 That is different. No one can change the vocal cords but with AI we can. They should had chosen a generic female voice and not something similar or exact as a popular actress. The problem here is people can use her voice for commercials and ads for FREE. They will make money off the fact it sounds like her and she won't earn a single dollar. The best they should do is modify the voice to be different and they will be okay. They choose a voice similar to her because she is famous and they can make money off her similar voice.
No It Doesn't
What a bunch of thieves
News flash, no matter what voice they use, it will sound similar to at least 1 of the 330 million Americans in the world.
What I dislike about the current state of GenAI now is that these research labs and tech companies are using not publicly disclosing who's data is used to train their models. They want to make money of the intellectual property, movies, paintings, art styles and not give credit to the humans who put in hours to creat that work. AI is a lifeless approximation of what make humans beautiful.
a corporation having legal rights in itself is already problematic.. individuals are limited and guided by morality and supplemented by laws, too many laws even, but corporations on the other hand are amoral, less regulated, not bound by the natural limits of an individual.. with how exponentially fast our society evolves from the agricultural era, to industrial, to plastics and chips, to digital, and now to AI... we can't even regulate properly the industrial sector.. how 'crazy' is it that we blame ourselves and the government more than corporations.. corporations will never be "greedy", when we don't pass legislations to quantify and qualify what is "enough" and what is too much.. private equity in the billions or trillions vs government deficit and majority of the people struggling to get by in life.. with AI, what is on the news often is celebrities being affected.. they can star in films even without the actual person.. we can reincarnate dead actors and have them star in films.. entire industries or workforce/human labour can be replaced with AI, doctors, teachers,.. what we will mot see replaced are big businesses, they will thrive, they will continue to maximize profits, by increasing productivity and lowering cost, even human cost..
China sees our intellectual property laws as a opportunity to take advantage of all the red tape bureaucracy that will ultimately hinder progress. People who are advocating for AI do so more for it to be relatable and countries and corporations know that. So it being able to train, learn, and or even just talk about current events. It won’t do so effectively if there are a million moderators making sure the AI’s big silicon brain doesn’t think a certain way until a copyright or owner of expires.
well, first of all what is not forbiden by law is legal , if you have dataset that you want to copyright coppryright it! if you dont want your dataset to be used in model traning set a licence, Forbiden Fir AI, The goverment should just create legal framowork for data usage, but can you copyright tone of voice? I dont think so. you can copy right only the recorinds of the voices not to be used in model training! but if the model can produce vocie a like as of an actores without using recordings of that specific actors, its FINE!!!
@@DevPythonUnity what is not forbidden by law is legal?! hmm.. so basically what is not illegal is legal.. wow!!! i never knew that... i'm kidding obviously..
i hope majority does not think like that.. laws should only be supplemental especially in a civilized society where individuals act accordingly with the right behaviour and proper conduct, you supposedly will be able to decide for yourself if whether your actions regardless of your intention, will not result to a negative consequence to society as a whole..
the constitution is written generically and purposefully that way, because they believe most people will be able to judge for themselves that what they are doing is wrong, you don't need the law to tell you what is wrong from right.. that's why it starts with 'We The People', you are not supposed to be too selfish or too indivualistic.. individuals though because of our natural limits, started corporations and some, most hide behind those corporations as "extension of rights" or "added layer of protection", to avoid tax, to leave a legacy, be immortalized, unionized to hoard wealth in private equities and intellectual properties.. these are not forbidden by law, but what is the impact of this in society? we know that money and wealth and resources are not unlimited.. yet they "hoard"..
AI is problematic, great invention and innovation, no doubt about it.. the ceo is even outspoken about having regulations in place to protect the public.. this AI voice threathens entire industries, entire workforce, it's not just celebrities, but the enitre entertainment, news, radio shows, etc.. corporations would always want to maximize profit, and one way to do it is cut off kabor cost.. who needs humans when you can have an AI, robotics, industrial machines, you can do it offshore as well to avoid tax.. imagine a company with just one person on top, cutting down cost, but maintaining selling price..
@@DevPythonUnity i'm not arguing with you, i realized i may have come across as probably argumentative.. this issue with SJ is very unique.. without regulations or laws in place, it is very nuanced.. compared with amazon's alexa which was a 'bit uncomfortable' because it was an unknown, unfamiliar voice.. this though, no doubt it sounds like scar jo.. for me, one of the biggest reason she is an A lister is because of her voice.. i watched 'lost in translation" without knowing who she is, she marked her presence on that film.. then she starred in 'her,' with her voice alone, and you know it was her.. that is the issue in here.
can she apply 'intellectual property' rights on her voice? she shouldn't, she wouldn't have to if not for this AI to use a voice similar to her.. but the ceo should have known better, she approached scar jo and asked her twice, she said no, so instead he hired someone that sounded like her , he knows what he did is unfair, yet he did it anyway, maybe it was to boost sales or for his own ego or whatnot.. but he did it anyway, scar jo, on the orherhand, what else coukd she have done, she felt expolited, money is irrelevant in this case, it's 'justice' or some accountability that she is after.. i'm really disappointed with this ceo, he is very smart and reasonable.. but he is only human after all, not an AI..
in animation films, they could just hire an unknown person with voice sounding like her , but paying that person at least a 'minimum wage' for voice acting instead of millions to scar jo.. why do i care? scar jo is already a billionaire, it's the behaviour of these corporations, exploiting individuals.. even dead singers can be exploited, with their record labels or some other person or corporations profiting from the skills, talent or hard work of other person, it's the 'easy' money issue..
Scarlets voice cracks and sounds like its breaking down, GPT's voice doesn't
Okay, now that I hear them side by side, I think it’s a stretch. Plenty of women have raspy hoarse voices and tbh, the voice behind Sky is deeper and not as raspy as Scarlett’s.
I like sky's voice better than Johansson's
Scarlett is crazy.. the voice of AI is “similar” to hers.. so it was a different voice actress. She cannot sue everybody who sounds like her?😂
This is not a person, so your argument makes no sense. Furthermore, there is ample evidence that Altman wanted the AI assistance to sound like her, which settles the intent.
@@herlandercarvalho they hired a different voice actress that 'coinsidentally sounds like scar and based the ai off that. so yeah they'll probably be fine.
At best, you could maybe say the Sky voice sounds similar to the character in Her, but that’s a character, not Scarlett’s normal speaking voice, so if anyone might have a claim, it could be the movie studio, but even that seems pretty shaky. The whole thing is just dumb. I support Hollywood actors, writers and filmmakers and I recognize that AI can be a major threat to their livelihood, but this is not an example of that. A real person voiced the Sky model and, as far as we know, is getting paid fairly for her work. That’s exactly how it should be
@@herlandercarvalho what do you mean when you say this is not a person? Are you talking about the AI bot itself? Yeah, I think we all realize that. Lol. However, a real person supplied the voice for it, and just because somebody sounds similar to a celebrity doesn’t mean they have a case, even if it’s clear OpenAI was inspired by the film Her and invited Johansson to voice the bot initially. There’s absolutely nothing wrong here, unless OpenAI has done something we don’t know about
@@Joomlahacks well, the company’s official statement is that they hired a voice actress and that she used her natural speaking voice to create the model. If that is a lie, then yeah, obviously OpenAI is going to have some pretty serious legal trouble on their hands. However, until we’re given reason to believe that was the case, innocent until proven guilty. It’s really up to Johansson‘s team to prove their was a legal violation
Yep. That tracks.
We need all actors voices available.
The voice of Sky sounds WAY deeper than Scarlett’s her calling this eerily similar is a stretch to me
It literally sounds just like her in her other rolls and interviews. Scarlett in HER doesn’t sound much like her actually voice, she was acting. It deffo all makes sense looking at the evidence provided.
Have you head ScarJo in anything besides the clip they used here? You could tell me that came from Iron Man 2 or The Avengers and it would fit right in.
@@billbill6094 exactly. It sounds just like her early black widow roll. Like before she was introduced as Black Widow.
They tried to license her voice before.
This is just such an unforced error. There was no reason for him to use a voice so similar to hers and cause this controversy. Even if she doesn't win in court, this is a substantial PR hit against OpenAi... for no benefit at all.
I don’t really see a problem. It’s clear the Sky voice was inspired by the character from Her, but it does not sound identical to Scarlett’s actual voice, and that’s a key thing. There’s nothing illegal about taking inspiration from a film character so long as you aren’t straight up ripping it off and violating copyright. Anyway, that would be an issue for the film studio, not the actress. Her team would need to prove that they are trying to actually mimic her voice and likeness, which I’d say it’s pretty clear they aren’t
@@EchoMountain47 but that isn't my point. I agree with you. My point is that he/they should have known that even if they can technically and legally do it, that it would result in a PR hit and backlash and there is no upside to it.
@@PeterSedesse I gotcha. Yeah he kind of invited all this unnecessary scrutiny with the dumb tweets about the movie and such. It’s funny how super brilliant people can be really dumb from an everyday common sense perspective, sometimes. Lol
@@EchoMountain47 Point being, the concept of it. That's what the OpenAI voice is doing. Not that he was stating hey, we took her voice.
what is even problematic is corporations having legal rights.. they can sue and can be sued.. legislators need to legislate properly, every court case that involves a corporation and an individual should have a corresponding legislation generally in favor of individuals.. we are very critical and highly distrustful of government, than we are of corporations that they have lost control.. every product or service whether digital or physical, should be reviewed first for general 'safety', the review done in most cases is how profitable a product or service can be.. actions of corporations that causes harm or displacements to individuals should be thoroughly reviewed.. corporations will maximize profits, but there should be limits as to where they can reduce cost and as to how high they can earn.. the business models being used by tech giants should be reviewed.. "caveat emptor" or buyer beware as a foundation for regulations is no longer effective.. we somehow accept 'sales talk' even with our politicians..
Honestly, the tone of both voices does not sound similar to me.
Sam Altman must be stopped.
If they cast an actress that sounded like Johansson, before reaching out to her, then why did they approach her for the Project. 😂
Hint all the "Her" in my post!
They sound similar. I think they did this for publicity and knew she would warn with a cease and desist, forcing them to stop using it. Horrible people.
This was a smart move from OpenAI. They hired a voice talent that sounded similar to "her."
They probably knew Scarlet would sue, being offended by the similar voice. However, since OpenAI had hired a voice talent, Scarlet would likely lose the lawsuit.
This would help build precedence to undermine actors' ability to win AI lawsuits in the future. This one lawsuit is not enough on its own, but it is one more nail in the coffin.
Not sure it sounds like her, but they could find someone who sounds like her through open auditions.
doesn't sound "exactly" like her to me.
Not only should the actress sue them, but also the creator behind how Sam in the film Her was portrayed too. It was obviously good enough that it impressed the OpenAI nerd, why not give credit where credit is due? OpenAI was against artists right from the start, whether they were visual, film creators or actors. Absolutely disgusting!
Its clearly briefed to sound similar. They invited her at first, wich means they can loose even if the other person exists.
Gene Roddenberry Jr. needs to worry if they will try and steal his mother (Majel Barrett Roddenberry)'s voice next (she was the Next Generation computer voice)...

Sam Altman is known for being sketchy about his intentions and actions. His real estate dealings on the Big Island of Hawaii is another grievous example. SA wants what he wants and will do whatever he sees fit to obtain his goal. Bravo to Scarlett Johansson for standing up to this bully, and for again looking after her own business to protect herself...
He could’ve handled this better, but as far as I can tell, OpenAI has not done anything wrong. The voice of Sky is performed by a real person who is definitely not Scarlett Johansson. Also, listen to the two clips of the voices in the beginning of this news report. They really don’t sound that similar. I think the problem is being overblown. If OpenAI had taken audio clips of Scarlett’s actual voice and created the digital voice, yeah, that would be a huge problem, but that’s not what happened
@EchoMountain47 Overblown? Hmm. If Ms Johansson is outraged and feeling betrayed, that's a tell right there. Altmans' a fanboy who took it a bit too far, and backed off a bit too quickly. Let's wait see if he provides proof he used another actresses voice. I'm thinking he won't...
Her voice has been being used for months and she is now finding out about it???
she should sue them asap
They should do her voice.
Lol that’s so her. OMG.
So even before they offered, the job has already been done. And her voice and diction is distinct also from her heritage.
That raspiness.
Maybe that is why many execs resigned.
All voice over people will be out of a job when AI takes over. They'll change these famous sounding voices just enough and not pay the celebrity or anyone else.
Just cast Amelia Tyler for the main voice, or literally anyone that doesn’t sound like ScarJo
im sure scarlet sounds like other people as well without thier permission
How sure are you ?

@@DARPAchief21 my condolences
@@Art_Martial ty i loved her very much
The devil could be in the details here. If they approached her to request using her voice and she declined, but they took her voice anyway and just modified it, that would be a problem. If they can prove that it is in fact someone else, but that she just kindof sounds like her, then they may be off the hook.
I just want Douglas Rain's voice in my interaction.
Johansson should apologize to the actual voice actor for false appropriation of their voice.
This is sickening.
Sickeningly petty and frivolous, yes. Scarlet has a history of BS litigious behavior
Sam: i tweeted "her", not "HER"
I do not hear similarities in the voice. The tone is totally different. But this is just me.
She is Skynet?
It can only get worst.
It's similar, it's not the same as hers, I don't see the issue. If they had literally cloned her voice I could see why she is mad, but as far as I know this is not the case.
That’s the point, that it’s similar and she already said she did not want her voice or her likeness being used for the chatbot when she was asked, but they did it anyway
@@hazelnutjones6533 I get that but she can't claim a voice that isn't actually hers. The other voice artist has the right to commercialize her voice too.
@@doingtime20 YES, if OpenAI was promoting their product using Titile Her and the voice was named Scarlett Johansson then there would be a case of unautorhised usage of trademark but not the voice itself
similar is just that... not the same rofl
Exactly. They use a real person with her own voice, that some people feel sounds similar to Scarlett Johansson. Listen to those two clips though. They don’t even sound the same to me at all. I think her team would only have a case here if they can prove that OpenAI was deliberately trying to clone or mimic her likeness, which clearly they were not. Taking inspiration is not illegal
It’s okay they got the marketing out of it lol. Which was the point. They just do whatever they want. I’m tired of big tech.
This is so art imitating life. If you seen the streaming series fallout, Matt Berry's character says... we're all products, even my voice is a product. They used my voice for a robot and then ask me later.
How can you deny something the world can hear with their own ears?
Hey Open AI, create yourself your own unique voice.

@@Renee-xo8hk lol they used another woman’s voice. It’s not generated. It was another woman’s actual natural speaking voice.

Ok so logic here guys. If someone hires a voice actor and asks him to imitate my voice for a product then I can sue him for imitating my voice even though that is the voice of a different person. Amazing just amazing.
I do voice impressions. I recently cloned my voice in the style of peter cullen's optimus prime. I used that voice to read chat responses from chatgpt. under this logic I could be sued for doing an optimus prime impression on youtube, using a voice clone that is in the "style" of optimus prime...
Can they get permission? I liked her voice
Eerrrr they sound different.
OMFG this is a facepalm of titanic proportions. She's COMPLAINING that they stole her voice?
So, some kid in a hundred years goes to see about how ai voices began, but instead of seeing her pic pop up as the official first openAi actor that lent her voice to the tech of the century, she and everything she has done will not be there listed? all because she cried over not getting a few bucks?
She should embrace it! Give them a nod and say 'lets do life mimics art' and become the mascot, earning millions along the way and being remembered for centuries.
Creepy, creepy, creepy!
It definitely sounds like her
only if you believe it does first.
side by side they're diff voices. Go check out comparison vids
But not her, now they can't use voice that sounds anyone? It's impossible
ScarJo you're reaching here. If they really did hire another actress who sounds like you, tough luck. You don't own other people's voices.
Not really. It is very clear that OpenAI tried to reproduce her voice, even if the sound clips to build the model were not hers. If someone for example, uses your likeness to suggest you are someone else (or even if you are just claiming to be someone else) that is generally a crime. Johansson, has no case against the supposed actress that sounds like her, but she might have a case against a company that tried to imitate her voice, without any artistic/satiric/comedic value to it. And there is plenty of evidence that at least, there was the intent to have Johansson's voice to be the voice for Sky. Intent matters, regardless. If for example, you use just old plain Photoshop to produce someone's likeness in a situation against their will, it is irrelevant what was the source material or how did you got there. What matters is the final result and intent.
@@herlandercarvalho They never claimed it was Scarlet. They weren't trying to dupe anyone into thinking it was. There was no trickery in this regard. A situation like this happened a while ago with the movie Cars 2. Larry the cable guy wanted more money to voice Mater. Disney said, "Look we have another actor. He can do the voice and he sounds almost exactly like you. You can do it for the money we offered you or we'll just hire this other actor." Larry the cable guy ended up doing it. Now, had disney used the other guy they weren't going to claim it was Larry. They would have simply put the other guy in the credits. There is no law that says you can't hire another actor. Again, openAI never advertised or claimed to have Scarlet Johansson as any part of their app. She is looking for a quick payday. It's revolting.
Good for her for standing up for herself and humanity. We need MAJOR regulations on AI
window for the government to step in is closing quickly, these companies have already taken and processed immense amount of owned material, and done so in a way that probably won't allow for it to be clawed back and tracked. We will probably just have to accept a constant stream of fake celebrities on social media apps selling Temu clothes and diet pills now.
oh, just relax.
No. This is wrong. They hired a different actress. Doesn't matter if she sounds like ScarJo or not. That actress has the right to work and get paid.
Listening to the voice several times in different youtube videos. I never got the impression that it was Scarlet.
It also sounds like Taylor Swift
More like Meghan Markle
@@poponachtschnecke all three have nice sounding low register speaking voices, but not as great as Kathleen Turner in her prime.
AI voice sounds sexier than SJ in the movie Her.
I don't agree you can copyright a voice. The problem is there are lots of people with similar voices.
Also, scarlet was trying to make a voice for the movie. And sci-fi is a genre where lots of artists are influenced. Therefore Scarlett is also infringing on decades of sci-fi dream girl robots.
This would be similar to copyrighting genes which I also reject.
Scarlett just found a way to get another 2 mantions

This news reporter looks AI generated
It does sound like her but at the same time it also sounded like Rashida Jones.
It doesn’t sound like her imo.
There are millions of people on the earth and most of the time voices sound similar.
This is an insult to the actual person whose voice was used, almost like she is not entitled to have her voice just because it sounds close to a celebs.
"AI is getting out of hand" -ChatGPT
But Sam Altman asked Scarlett Johansson specifically to voice ChatGPT and she declined and he even tweeted the movie where she voices an AI chatbot, so even if there are many people who may sound like her, it’s very clear he intended on having her voice in ChatGPT for whatever reason and in whatever way he could, she has a right to be weirded out by the voice sounding like her
I am completely disgusted by the "future"this AI companies are trying to build.
Yes, everything will be generated, lifeless. Dead internet.
Hey, Sam offered her the role as THE voice of AI and she turned it down. "Similar" doesn't mean "the same." She won't be able to win this lawsuit.
She doesn't need to sue because they took it down... and if she did, Altman's single word "her" tweet on May 13th speaks volumes about his intent.
There are laws that protect the use of people likeness without their consent. The voice being similar, is no coincidence, and there is ample evidence that the similarity was done with intent.
OpenAI hired a voice actress. I think that stops the buck in it's tracks right there. I can hear the tonal differences between the two voices, but then again, I have been a professional studio engineer in the past where I have had to equalize voices at very specific frequencies in order to get them to sit in a mix. If OpenAI is being truthful, then they have nothing to worry about.
Exactly. I’m no legal expert, but I think this would only be a problem if they actually used clips of Scarlett Johansson‘s voice to create the voice model, which it doesn’t sound like they did. They hired another person who might sound similar but not the same to Scarlet. How is that in any way problematic? And sure, Sam has made it pretty clear he’s a fan of the movie Her, which obviously starred Johansson, but since when is it illegal to be inspired by something?
@@herlandercarvalho so he hired a female voice actor who has a voice that some might consider similar to Scarlett Johansson‘s. How exactly is that a crime? Is it illegal now for peoples voices to resemble those of famous people? If that’s the case, we are setting a pretty crazy legal precedent lol. He hired somebody who did the job, and as far as we know, did so perfectly lawfully. Only way I can imagine her team has a solid cases if they can prove that OpenAI actually used snippets of her actual voice to create the model, which I’m sure they wouldn’t be dumb enough to do
Hey Scarlett, Elizabeth Theranos called. She wants her fake deep voice back.
Even if it's not her voice, let's be honest and admit that it was made on purpose to look exactly like her voice.
The clip abc news showed didn't sound like Scarlett at all but the clips on this sound too similar to her, i understand why she's upset. Sounds to me like they purposely hired someone that sounds like her since she refused which is not ok if they did, hopefully Scarlett wins this battle.
They are such liars.
Personally I always thought it sounded like Rashida Jones…
Jarvis would be better
What utter nonsense … didn’t think Scarlet was that greedy … and to the person who actually did the Sky voiceover … you sound far better than … her :)
She’s lying.
I’m sick of AI.
Agreed
Agreed
Im not. I want more.
You'll own nothing... Including your own voice.
uhh its open sourced. feel free to parse thru the data
She should keep suing them. I like the openai team as far as developing the technology goes. But Sam Altman cares more about AI being successful than the societal implications of this. We need to create the legal precedent now, not try to figure it out after the fact.
Hey AI people let me know if you want AI to sound like John Wayne. I do a really good John Wayne impersonation and I could use some of that computer money. I can also do a pretty convincing Christopher Walken.
No wonder it switched voices on me 😐😐😐
Looks like AI technology is here to stay.
OMG That is Scarlett Johansson's voice wth
More like Meghan Markle
@@poponachtschnecke OOOOH I hear it!!!
Blind here. And so? All I want to say is people like me use our hears more than the other senses. I'm telling you, it's not the same. If Sam contacts me to be his witness, I'll gladly help for free. Because I'm confident and will stand by what I hear. That's one thing we're proud of; our sense of hearing.
Blind because you want to protect the value of your shares? Got it!
How about using your powers for something good instead of helping these demons
This A.I stuff is getting way too creepy ,where is this going to stop????
this is just the beginning!!! It will not stop we are in a new world, try to enjoy the ride! AI will have some major science and medical uses that will save lives! AI will also have some very negative effects on jobs and it already has! Best ADVICE, LEARN IT!!!! do not get left behind!!
The future does not need you. It won't stop.
Everything you see on monitor or hear from your speakers will be generated. Lifeless internet.
That voice sounds nothing like Scarlett Johansson. Different people can have similar voices. Scarlett Johansson should get over herself.
