Joshua Erlich: cannot stress enough how much SAG and WGA were right about AI in the recent strike, and how much everything the studios said was just bullshit.

color me shocked that a company building a product based on other people’s work would have acted this way.

OpenAI pulls AI voice that was compared to Scarlett Johansson in the movie 'Her'www.npr.org The AI company said the voice was not patterned after Johansson, but that it was removing the voice as an option in the wake of speculation about whether the sci-fi film inspired the voice.

The most technical explanation or AI is “copyright infringement machine.”

Of* damn it

who could've possibly seen this coming

My favorite part was when they said, "it wasn't her voice. It was a different voice. You've probably never heard of her. She's from Canada, but she's totally real and she said words!"

Her name is… uh… Red… [eyes door]… Red JoHandle.

Hmm. Adding Sam Altman to the list of people with whom i'd like to have a conversation at the top of a long, long flight of stairs

Capitalism: society is based on private property that can only be exchanged by consent ... except for this long list of exceptions that will cover every time we steal stuff

No no, it's not modelled after Scarlett Johansson, it's modelled after the fictional computer voice of OS1 in the movie "Her".

It's crazy how quickly it came to pass. The strikes are still in our collective memory. It wasn't a decade or generation later that it happened. It's wild how blatant and bold OpenAI and these other companies are being in their AI arms race.

It’s the playbook that’s worked for other tech companies, so they’re going to keep doing it… Uber was just taxi dispatch software with VC funds and untrained drivers, that became big enough fast enough to put older competitors out of business.

Yeah, too bad they aren't standing firm with regards to animation...

Amen, Brother Joshua!

Honestly the music industry should be more terrified than the motion picture industry. Ai can write better lyrics and make a voice that doesn’t sound auto tuned to hell better than half the stuff on the radio..

this is an excellent point - thank you
