I think it would be more like "precludes you from work (arguably) deceptively impersonating the more famous actor."

Speaking with your natural voice is not impersonating.

You should tell that to OpenAI, who are the ones selling it as "her".

Drawing a parallel to a calming persona of an always on life assistant from pop culture in a few throwaway social media posts from personal accounts such as "Hope Everyone's Ready" isn't "selling it as Her" any more than Anthropic is selling their offerings as a Star Trek communicator despite a few comments they've made on social media.

> an always on life assistant from pop culture

It's not "from pop culture", it's from a specific film. Starring Scarlett Johansson.
