It’s not perfectly fine. If a company uses an actress because she sounds similar to a character they want to associate with their product, they are liable for damages whether or not the actress lists “impersonator” in her job description.

The key here is intent. If there was no intention for OpenAI to model the voice after the character Samantha, then you're right, there's no foul.

But as I have explained to you elsewhere, that beggars belief.

We will see the truth when the internal emails come out.
