as long as he's not lying, it's what I said

Yeah, it’s not like a young tech CEO would lie to the public to attempt to cover up a major fuck up.

OpenAI didn’t copy Scarlett Johansson’s voice for ChatGPT, records show

A different actress was hired to provide the voice for ChatGPT’s “Sky,” according to documents and recordings shared with the Washington Post.

The agent, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to assure the safety of her client, said the actress confirmed that neither Johansson nor the movie “Her” were ever mentioned by OpenAI. The actress’s natural voice sounds identical to the AI-generated Sky voice, based on brief recordings of her initial voice test reviewed by The Post. The agent said the name Sky was chosen to signal a cool, airy and pleasant sound.
