Scarlett Johansson said she was “shocked” that Sam Altman of ChatGPT created an AI voice that sounded “eerily” like her after she declined to voice the system herself.

The “Black Widow” actress issued a statement on Monday in which she said Altman re-upped his offer for her to officially lend her voice to his product after the Sky demo was already out. Instead, she had lawyers write to him demanding he explain the inspiration behind the AI voice. In the statement, she references the 2013 Spike Jonze movie “Her,” in which she voiced an AI named Samantha.

Earlier on Monday, OpenAI issued a statement denying they had copied Johansson: “Sky’s voice is not an imitation of Scarlett Johansson but belongs to a different professional actress,” though they agreed to take the demo down.

Here is Johansson’s full statement:

“Last September, I received an offer from Sam Altman, who wanted to hire me to voice the current ChatGPT 4.0 system. He told me that he felt that by my voicing the system, I could bridge the gap between tech companies and creatives and help consumers to feel comfortable with the seismic shift concerning humans and Al. He said he felt that my voice would be comforting to people. After much consideration and for personal reasons, declined the offer.

She should find the lawyer Tom Waits used back in the day. McDonald's wanted to use his voice/likeness, he said hell no, then a commercial aired that sounded exactly like Tom Waits. He sued and won.

You'd think they'd be smart enough not to copy a voice they originally tried to hire. Just shows the level of entitlement

You do not mess with Scar Jo. She stood up to Disney - and won.

If AI tools, games etc are using actors voices, their coders should have the decency to pay the actor if they sample their voice. Same issue with Midjourney.
I'd happily pay for my Alexa to sound like SHODAN from System Shock.

I want my phone's TTS voice to be Bobcat Goldthwaite.

The creepiest thing is that they made the voice with some kind of flirty/sensual undertone to it when all it was talking about was the contents of a room. Totally unnecessary.

How ironic, a video about AI and there's already 4 porn bots.

They should use the voice of Gilbert Gottfried.

Guess they failed to ask ChatGp if celebrities can successfully sue for using there voice. 30 years ago or more Tom Waits won a suit for I believe was a sing alike against Dorito's after they tried to get him to sing for an ad.

For evil to prosper all it takes is for good men to do nothing. In the comments its interesting to see those who think scarlett shouldn't be kicking up a fuss.

the voice in question sounds more like the Microsoft voice, Alice, that has been tweaked than anything else.

I don't understand the issue here. There are probably thousands of people in the world that have the same voice as another. It's not that they're claiming it actually IS the voice of someone that it isn't in reality (in this case Scarlett Johansson). What's wrong with OpenAI trying to find a voice that sounds a bit similar? Why is that an issue? I really don't get it.
