Lawsuits have been won by celebrities because a commercial used a lookalike, which still impacts the celebrity and their brand. They were in the wrong and didn't care.
She absolutely should sue, and I hope she wins. Their BS excuse of "It's totally someone else, but you wouldn't know her, she goes to another school. Also we have to protect her identity for reasons" is as blatant as it gets.
Her identity was never used.
Setting a president that voice can be copyrighted would be extremely bad for everyone who isn't already a AAA actor.
If I sound like David Attenborough, even if I have an amazing voice, I can never work in any voice acting for the rest of my life. Just because some trust will sue my ass for sounding too similar to David.
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.
The CEO tweeted 'her' on the day 'Sky' released. If it were a movie, the bad guys would be too dumb to be believable.
Her could mean many things. It could be the way Sam(the movie character) talks. The flirty style. The way Sky can now detect emotion.
