Scarlett Johansson ‘shocked’ by AI chatbot imitation | BBC News


Hollywood star Scarlett Johansson has said she was left "shocked" and "angered" after OpenAI launched a chatbot with an "eerily similar" voice to her own.

The actress said she had previously turned down an approach by the company to voice its new chatbot, which reads text aloud to users.

When the new model debuted last week commentators were quick to draw comparisons between the chatbot’s "Sky" voice and Johansson’s in the 2013 film Her.

OpenAI said on Monday that it would remove the voice, but insisted that it was not meant to be an "imitation" of the star.
