Wake up honey, new Zitron just dropped.

Looks like Sammy boy has a crush on Scarlett Johansson and wanted to model his sexy chatbot after her role in the movie Her. The damage control is actually hilarious.

Altman subsequently claimed that the actress for Sky was cast before the company reached out to Johansson.

“Yeah, I don’t want to go out with you anyway. Also, I already have a girlfriend but she goes to a different school, so you wouldn’t know her. And no, I won’t tell you who it is!”

I mean, we all knew that OpenAI is a fucking clown show of a company run by wannabe nerd frat boys with way too much money, but I didn’t think we’d get high school level relationship drama this season.

which really falls apart given there’s enough of a resemblance that OpenAI had to take down the voice

you know, I want the peanut brigade to come in with waves of "I listened to it but it didn't sound that similar to me!", if only just because it'll serve as demonstration of mispurposed belief

kinda shitty that scarjo is only at letters-and-statements, but then again US law is a fucking disasterzone and fuck knows what'd needed to Actually Prove(tm)(r)<<US Court Flavour - Special Edition>> the extremely obvious fact that openai did a bit of thieving
