ScarJo, Call Your Lawyer

I understand why OpenAI was eager to use something akin to Scarlett Johansson’s voice when launching their voice-activated AI feature. They wanted to evoke in people’s mind Samantha from the movie Her.

BUT.

I’d like to know if ScarJo got a heads up that they were going to do it. And that doesn’t even begin to address the needs of other stakeholders like the producers of the movie Her.

But maybe I’m overthinking things. It could just a one off and in the future the female voice of ChatGPT won’t sound JUST LIKE ScarJo.

Who knows.
