Actress Scarlett Johansson is locked in a dispute with OpenAI, the company behind the popular AI chatbot ChatGPT. Johansson claims OpenAI used a voice in their system that sounds eerily similar to hers, despite her declining a request to be the official voice.
According to Johansson, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman contacted her in September 2023 to voice ChatGPT 4.0. She refused but says Altman persisted even days before the public demo.
