VisitOpenAI Pauses ChatGPT's 'Sky' Voice Amid Scarlett Johansson Concerns Following GPT-4o Announcement
May 20, 2024, 01:34 PM
OpenAI has decided to pause the use of the 'Sky' voice in ChatGPT after users pointed out its striking similarity to actress Scarlett Johansson's voice, particularly her role in the film 'Her'. OpenAI clarified that the voice was not intended to mimic Johansson and belongs to a different professional actress using her natural speaking voice. This decision comes amidst speculations that OpenAI might have received a lawsuit from Johansson. The company emphasized that AI voices should not deliberately mimic a celebrity’s distinctive voice. The move follows the announcement of GPT-4o on Monday.
