It's also worth noting that Sam Altman admitted that he had only used GPT4o for one week before it was released. It's possible that in the rush to release before Google's IO event, they made the realisation of the likeness of the voice to Scarlett Johansen way too late hence the last minute contact with her agent.

Then asking Johansson for permission months before was pure coincidence?

The "Sky" voice and it's likeness to SJo's have been there in the ChatGPT app for months.
