OpenAI stealing Scarlett’s voice for their new product after being told “no” is so perfectly on-brand, it’s almost painful. https://www.npr.org/2024/05/20/1252495087/openai-pulls-ai-voice-that-was-compared-to-scarlett-johansson-in-the-movie-her

@Meyerweb I agree but "stealing" is very misleading here. She didn't do any work here nor is the voice that similar.

More like inspired without permission. Shitty move but you'll never find me cheering for ultra rich entertainer's copyrights in this lifetime.

@wraptile @Meyerweb I'll take the ultra rich entertainer over the megacorp every day of the week.

@wraptile Right, because there exists no recording of her voice that they could have had access to.

@oscherler doesn't matter. That's not what stealing means.

@wraptile Ah, you’re one of those “piracy isn’t stealing, because you still have your digital file” smartasses?

@oscherler no just someone who knows more than 1 word

@wraptile It’s not enough to know words, you need to know how they’re put together.

@oscherler your corporate law links are cute lmao have a good day 👋
