A new lab analysis conducted by Arizona State University data scientists for NPR reveals that OpenAI's 'Sky' voice bears a striking resemblance to actress Scarlett Johansson. The analysis compared Johansson's voice and speech patterns to the AI voice using AI models developed to evaluate voice similarities. The study found that Johansson's voice is more similar to Sky than 98% of other professional actresses.
The research also discovered that the Sky voice shared similarities with other Hollywood stars like Anne Hathaway and Keri Russell. Despite some differences in vocal features such as pitch and expressiveness, the overall analysis showed distinct parallels between Johansson's voice and Sky. OpenAI paused the Sky voice after Johansson accused the company of copying her voice in its ChatGPT version.
