Scarlett Johansson doesn’t forgive Sam Altman for stealing her voice for ChatGPT

I must admit that what bothers me the most about generative artificial intelligence is not that they steal content from other artists, but rather the impunity they believe they have to do so. Boasting and saying “Well, after all, artists also learn by copying” is not the master phrase that many believe it to be. And in this same line of thought, in ChatGPT, they plagiarized Scarlett Johansson’s voice, thinking that there would be no consequences. Fortunately, they were very wrong.

Scarlett angry as Hulk

Obviously, the attempt by ChatGPT and, more specifically, its CEO, Sam Altman, was to make a nod to the movie Her, but without spending a single dollar to obtain the rights of the actress. The surprising thing is that no one expected that Johansson would end up demanding explanations and holding a grudge in her heart for a long time.

In fact, in an interview, Johansson has stated that Altman could make a good villain for Marvel, “maybe with a robotic arm.” Oh! Her anger is understandable, because she already refused to collaborate with them once because it went against her values, but she didn’t tell anyone, except her husband, about the focus of artificial intelligence in her life. And then came the stab.

Does Johansson see anything positive in AI? Well, considering she calls it “a dark black hole you can never escape from,” I’d say no. And that’s because, as she asks, how long will it be until someone starts making hyper-realistic pornography of Hollywood stars? And how is it distinguishable from reality? The actress is right to ask these questions, because it’s exactly the moral debate we’ll be having in a couple of years. And it’s going to be very, very complex to resolve.
