The Scarlett Johansson Incident Makes OpenAI Look Desperate

GPT-4o is a phenomenal leap forward for true multimodal models, inference efficiency, and speech generation; it's also replacing the free public model. That's massive news. In contrast, the Sky voice drama is vastly overblown and a blatantly obvious/predictable/avoidable mistake by OpenAI. But it'll be memory-holed in a week. Two, at most.

ClopenAI is a terrible company, but calling them desperate over a PR faux pas is pathetic.

They had to have known that this would be brought to light when releasing something that they didn't get permission for. Asking twice means that they knew it sounded very like SJ. My theory is that this will be used as an example for why legislation needs to be pushed harder with tighter controls and official hardware/software locks. "We can't allow the masses access to generate whatever they want."
