OpenAI, which made a statement after many compared this voice to Scarlett Johansson&#8217;s, denied the allegations. However, there has been a new development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking to The Washington Post, Scarlett Johansson claimed that the voice in question belonged to her. She also mentioned that OpenAI CEO Sam Altman had previously contacted her to do a voiceover. According to Johansson, when she rejected this offer, OpenAI created a voice similar to the one she used in the movie &#8220;Her.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;I was shocked when I heard the voice&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"582\" src=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1-1024x582.webp\" alt=\"ChatGPT Statement by Scarlett Johansson\" class=\"wp-image-17139\" srcset=\"https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1-1024x582.webp 1024w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1-300x171.webp 300w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1-768x437.webp 768w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1-150x85.webp 150w, https:\/\/metaverseplanet.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ChatGPT-Statement-by-Scarlett-Johansson-1.webp 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;When I heard the demo that was released, I was shocked, outraged, and couldn&#8217;t believe that Mr. Altman could create a voice that was eerily similar to mine, so much so that my closest friends and news organizations couldn&#8217;t tell the difference. Mr. Altman even made a post implying that this was not a coincidental resemblance. That post said &#8216;her.'&#8221; The world-famous actress added that she might take legal action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>OpenAI CEO Sam Altman also made a statement to The Washington Post. In his statement, Altman said, &#8220;Sky&#8217;s voice is not Scarlett Johansson&#8217;s and was never designed to sound like hers. Before we made any offer to Ms. Johansson, we had already chosen the voice actor behind Sky&#8217;s voice. We apologize to Ms. Johansson for not communicating better.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a href=\"javascript:void(0)\"><\/a>You may also like this content<\/h3>\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-latest-posts__list wp-block-latest-posts\"><\/ul>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scarlett Johansson has suggested that the &#8220;Sky&#8221; voice in ChatGPT belongs to her.
