When It showed GPT-4o in appearance There were observers last week One of ChatGPT’s voices sounds like Scarlett Johansson, especially her character His. The company says it shares similarities between the flirtatious AI voice Sky (which actually ) and Johansson was intentional. However, when answering some questions about the sound, “Trying to stop using Sky”.
“We believe that AI voices should not intentionally imitate a celebrity’s distinctive voice – Sky’s voice is not an imitation of Scarlett Johansson, but of another professional actress using her own natural speaking voice,” OpenAI said. It explains in detail how ChatGPT chose its five voices. “To protect their privacy, we cannot share the names of our voice talents.” He added that each of the performers “are valued above the market and will continue to do so until their voices are used in our products.”
For what it’s worth, CEO Sam Altman shortly after showing off an improved version of OpenAI Sky placed The word “his” in x. But it is definitely not “imitation”.
Johansson’s is one of the most popular depictions of a virtual voice assistant in cinema. The movie predates the conversational AI craze by nearly a decade, so it’s not too surprising that Johansson’s breezy, warm chatbot image is an effective template for current voice assistants. Formerly an actor one ad is said to use an AI-generated version of his voice and likeness.
It’s unclear why OpenAI has been removed from Sky yet, or what changes (if any) it plans to make before restoring voice to ChatGPT. Engadget has reached out to the company for comment.
