Scarlett Johansson and the Irony of Artificial Intelligence

Scarlett Johansson and the Irony of Artificial Intelligence


Summary

Scarlett Johansson illustrates the contradictions of Artificial Intelligence by engaging in a debate about protecting actors’ voices and appearances, in the context of publishing content for teaching AI by Time.




Time magazine just released its list of the most influential people in AI in 2024. And no one illustrates the contradictions of AI better than Scarlett Johansson.

HOW? The award-winning actress, the highest-paid star of her generation, the Black Widow? Yes, she is.

Because Scarlett went nuts when she realized that Open AI was offering an AI voice that was very similar to her own voice. And that was the trigger for major changes. Including legislation passed by the California state assembly that protects actors’ appearances and voices.

Now, the irony. The text on Scarlett says that Time has a deal to release all of its content to teach AI from… Open AI.

It will always be this way. AI already has very practical and real solutions for many business, individual and even social problems. But new solutions will always create new debates and even new problems that will need to be addressed.

Like all innovations, it can be used for good or evil. And our superheroine understands this… after all, she has already fought Ultron!

It’s worth reading full article from Time, featuring an all-star cast of leaders, innovators, communicators, policymakers, people who are shaping the future of AI.
