Actually, there's a similar court case from 1988 that creates legal precedent for her to sue.
"That's just one case! And it's from 1988! That's 36 years ago: rounded up, that's 4 decades!"
Actually, there's a court case from 1992 that built on that judgement and expanded it to define a specific kind of tort.
"That's bad law! Forget the law! I demand a moral justification."
Anyway, asking a person if you can make money off their identity, them saying no, and you going ahead and doing that anyway seems challenging to justify on moral grounds. I don't think you're willing to change your mind, your claim notwithstanding.
Which is a shame, since you had a decent argument.
Except it isn’t. Again, you’re acting like OpenAI tried to profit off of Scarlett. They tried to profit off of the portrayal she did in the movie Her. These are not the same thing, and treating them as interchangeable is some next level moral rationalization. One is taking advantage of someone. The other is what the movie industry is for.
Now, where’s this case from 1992 that expended and defined the scope of this?
Ahhh... so you admit OpenAI has been shady, but you argue they're actually ripping of Spike Jones not Scarlett Johansson?
HEH. The people who say Sam is shady aren't really interested in this distinction.
(And you're wrong, both ScarJo and the film own aspects of the character they created together.)
From her statement:
> I received an offer from Sam Altman, who wanted to hire me to voice the current ChatGPT 4.0 system. He told me that he felt that by my voicing the system, I could bridge the gap between tech companies and creatives and help consumers to feel comfortable with the seismic shift concerning humans and Al. He said he felt that my voice would be comforting to people.
So, they wanted to profit off of her voice, as her voice is comforting. She said no, and they did it anyway. Nothing about, "come in and do that song and dance from your old movie."
> where’s this case from 1992
Yeah, so stop doing that then.
