Episode notes
The controversy revolves around the striking resemblance of a voice used in the chatbot GPT system to Scarlett Johansson's voice without her consent. Despite OpenAI's claim that the voice was casted before reaching out to Scarlett Johansson and pausing its usage in the product out of respect, the mounting evidence contradicts this narrative. The incident highlights the ethical concerns of using AI to replicate human connections, as depicted in movies where human relationships overshadow AI relationships, leading to a poignant realization about the importance of genuine human connections over simulated ones. The trend of tech companies trying to emulate dystopian concepts from movies like 'Black Mirror' in their products is also concerning, as seen in the case of a dating app creating chatbots to interact on behalf of users, reminiscent of cautionary tales about the dangers of relying heavily on AI for human interaction.
