Scarlet doesn’t own her whole spectrum of tone, nor do the directors of Her own the concept of a bubbly female assistant. I don’t think this is defendable imo.
But it doesn’t reference the whole movie, does it. It’s meant to invoke a memory of a specific character in the movie, since that’s the business Altman is in.
And we don’t know what kind of deal Johansen struck for that movie. Maybe she does own her likeness in it. We’ll see, I guess.
So they used AI to determine this? So I’m sure the result must be totally accurate.
What else does the article say? Hmmm let’s see.
“The researchers found that Sky was also reminiscent of other Hollywood stars, including Anne Hathaway and Keri Russell. The analysis of Sky often rated Hathaway and Russell as being even more similar to the AI than Johansson.”
Alright that proves it! Clearly this voice was based on Scarlett Johansson!
Many things are called “AI models” nowadays (unfortunately due to the hype). I wouldn’t dismiss the tools and methodology yet.
That said, the article (or the researchers) did a disservice to the analysis by not including a link to the report (and code) that outlines the methodology and how the distribution of similarities look. I couldn’t find a link in the article and a quick search didn’t turn up anything.
My washing machine has AI integrated. No joke. It says so on the sticker. What does it do? Analyze the weight of the load to determine the amount of time needed to wash, based on the selected cycle.
AI… Piss off, Samsung! And it’ll never get connected online.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Its quite obvious it isn’t her if you actually listen to a comparison video.

Didn’t she sue them for this?
I’m pretty sure it fell through, once OpenAI clearly showed it wasn’t based on her
Similar voices, clearly different actresses. Imagine refusing a job then feeling entitled to some sort of compensation…
If the company uses a reference to you to make money, I’d definitely feel entitled to compensation.
It’s not even a reference to Scarlett, it’s at best a reference to a movie that she has no rights over.
She was offered a job, refused it, and they went with a different actress. She doesn’t own her “likeness”. They owe nothing to her or her ego.

This Hollywood idea that famous people are owed perpetual passive income for work they did decades ago needs to die in a fire.
🙄👌👍
This is so dumb, it’s clearly not her.
