SJ mentions deep fakes.

It is quite possible that OpenAI has synthesized the voice from SJ material.

However If OpenAI can produce the woman who did is the current voice, and she has a voice nearly identical that of SJ would that mean OpenAI had done something wrong?

Does SJ since she is a celebrity hold a "patent" right to sound like her.

The more likely scenario is that they have hired a person and told her to try and imitate how SJ sounds.

What is the law on something like that?

SJ's side would use pre-action discovery and trawl through internal OpenAI communications to check. If there was any suggestion of instruction from management to find a similar voice, they'd potentially be in trouble. There's already the indication that they wanted her voice through official channels.

And would they need to use a voice actor when there is a substantial body of movie dialogue and interviews? I'd be surprised if they'd bothered.
