Scarlett Johansson may have a case in OpenAI voice dispute
While Protos usually covers Sam Altman when he’s launching Crypto currencies or scanning eyeballs, OpenAI and its CEO have recently made waves for other reasons: namely, it appears as though Altman and his team reached out to actress Scarlett Johansson, asked for her to be a voice for OpenAI, were refused permission, and chose to pursue a similar voice actor to create the voice instead. AI advocates have been quick to suggest that, because it wasn’t Johansson herself, there would be no room for a possible lawsuit against OpenAI. As it turns out, things may not be that simple. Indeed, there are many cases that suggest Johansson would not only have a case but would likely win. Statement from Scarlett Johansson on the OpenAI situation.
