We're not talking about any project though. In your case, it'd only be like an unaffiliated project specifically trying to imitate a project David Attenborough has worked on in an attempt to mislead people to think it could be David Attenborough. There's always room for parody, but you couldn't sell your voice as the 'Planet Earth' voice.

That's the thing. The line is too thin. OpenAI is def not in the clear tho, but likeliness should not be copyrighted. But they didn't claim this was Scarlett. At most they are trying to replicate a character in a movie.

If they flat out said "Introducing Scarlett AI" then she might have a case. But they didn't

A voice is too subjective. I for one can tell a very big difference between the voices and they sound like different females. The flirty way Sky is speaking is like Sam from Her. If anything the movie should be upset.
