Johansson, known for her role as a voice-operated system in the 2013 film Her, had previously declined an offer to voice the chatbot.

OpenAI has since paused the use of the &#8220;Sky&#8221; voice and expressed regrets over the incident.<\/p>\n<p>The incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding AI and deepfake technology, particularly around copyright and the ethical use of someone&#8217;s likeness without consent.
