> She choose to forego being a billion lonely guys AI girlfriend

To suggest that Johansson’s only appeal is to the opposite gender (and ‘lonely’ ones at that!) I think is myopic and reductive of her impact

>>keepam+(OP)
That is not her only appeal, she is a renowned actress.

However Sam tweeted "her" which is literally the movie where she voices the AI girlfriend. And then made a synthetic replica of her voice the star of their new demo against her wishes.

It's pretty direct what he is pitching at.

Fair enough. But I think your comment was reductive…

but it doesn’t matter, because how he may have marketed it in a 140 character tweet does not encompass the entirety of how it could be used, of course

>>keepam+(OP)
That was not an exclusive statement. It can be a billion lonely guys, AND lonely women, AND gregarious enbies, AND everyone else.

Indeed, they can find the male voice equivalent. Though to be fair I think men are MUCH more susceptible to this than women.

That said, Krazam covered this topic well already https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KiPQdVC5RHU

So what? Reducing a situation to its essentials is an entirely valid argument / debating technique.

Your mistake is thinking that's the essentials hahaha! :)
