Actor Scarlett Johansson said Monday that OpenAI copied her voice for their ChatGPT 4.0 chatbot despite her declining their offer for her to provide the voice. Earlier Monday, OpenAI said that it would no longer be using the voice, but did not indicate why. 'Last September, I received an offer from Sam Altman, who wanted to hire me to voice the current ChatGPT 4.0 system,' Johansson wrote in the statement, which a representative shared with NBC News.
Johansson voiced an artificial-intelligence chatbot in the movie “Her,” which OpenAI CEO Sam Altman referenced in relation to the company's new voice offerings — something Johansson noted in her statement. 'When I heard the released demo, I was shocked, angered and in disbelief that Mr. Altman would pursue a voice that sounded so eerily similar to mine that my closest friends and news outlets could not tell the difference,' Johansson wrote in the statement.
