This is the best summary I could come up with:


Scarlett Johansson is famed for many roles, among them her disquieting performance in Her, a movie about the relationship between a man and an AI chatbot.

When OpenAI boss Sam Altman contacted Johansson to ask to use her voice for his company’s forthcoming real-life AI chatbot, you can well imagine why1 she said no.

Johansson, clearly livid, ultimately issued a public statement and a legal letter before the clone was removed.

“I was shocked, angered and in disbelief that Mr. Altman would pursue a voice that sounded so eerily similar to mine that my closest friends and news outlets could not tell the difference,” she said, … “In a time when we are all grappling with deepfakes and the protection of our own likeness, our own work, our own identities, I believe these are questions that deserve absolute clarity,” Johansson said in a statement to NPR.

But Murati’s audacious claim never to have heard the voice of the AI chatbot in her boss’s favorite movie is key to understanding something else: they don’t just think they’re the smartest people in the world, they think that everyone else is stupid.

As a final fun thing today, check out how Google News’s AI junk has hallucinated a factually incorrect headline that’s the exact opposite of the truth here:

We literally have wars being fought over simple misunderstandings and half truths. How much worse is it going to be, when AIS take hold.
