OpenAI Pulls ChatGPT Voice Echoing Scarlett Johansson

In a surprising move, OpenAI has recently decided to retire its “Sky” voice from ChatGPT’s Voice Mode feature. The decision follows growing comparisons between the Sky voice and Scarlett Johansson’s portrayal of an AI character in the film “Her.” Although the tech firm maintains that the voice was not designed to mimic Johansson, the similarity was enough to raise concerns. A wave of speculation and unease arose as the voice seemingly flirted in demonstrations, resulting in a backlash and eventual pause.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s cryptic “her” tweet only added fuel to the fire. In response, OpenAI issued a blog post emphasizing the importance of employing unique voice actors and non-imitative artificial intelligence. This move underscores the company’s commitment to maintaining ethical standards in AI voice technology.

So I talk, like, a lot. I was speaking in full sentences before 12 months old and, as my family said, I "never shut up since".

Through my teen years I learned to emulate the voices of my favourite bands so I could sing along (The Living End, Green Day, Stray Cats, Nine Inch Nails, Reel Big Fish, The Clash, Rancid, My Chemical Romance, Mustard Plug, [Spunge], Fall Out Boy, Papa Roach, New Found Glory, Nekromantix, The Meteors, etc.), and they were all male-fronted. There were only a couple of bands or a couple of songs with female singers that I liked (props to Dance Hall Crashers, Deadline, No Doubt, The Distillers and Horrorpops).

Such was the state of popular alternative music in the 2000s.

I had a father with short man syndrome, and the way folks got respect in our family was through being the loudest and most aggressive.

I attended an all-girls grammar school and all I wanted to do was differentiate myself from the shrill catty posh girls who were quite mean to my friends and I on a daily basis. As we got a bit older and our goth-punk-emo obsessions could be let out in outfits to wear once we started going out drinking and clubbing, me and my friends were not far off this pic:

Men and boys seemed to have a lot more gravitas and commanded more respect from the general population. I joined the air cadets and discovered I had to be more monotone, macho and masculine than the boys in my squadron in order to be heard.

All this meant that I modulated my voice pitch quite low.

Now I'm going through a journey of unmasking my neurodivergent self and I am trying to be more sociable and get over myself. Cultural norms have moved on and I've matured to the point to realise that no one really gives a shit what you wear or what you look like.

Some of this means making an effort with folks at work and talking to them, but my voice is loud and low, I have trouble filtering myself so swear a bit and generally my reactions like bursting out laughing or making noises of acknowledgement are loud too.

On Friday me and my team got told to be quiet because some random woman in our open plan office wanted to concentrate. She isn't senior to us and prefaced her comments with "Can I be a bitch" which just makes it worse, because she knew she was being an asshole.

It made me super pissed and I really did have to stop myself from telling her to fuck off. I am BAD at modulating my voice pitch and volume due to my neurodiverse traits and now I'm spiralling looking at how to voice train myself to be soft and quiet and sweet and feminine so I don't get shushed again.

She was not given permission to be a bitch.

serious question about voice volume from a traumatized, autistic person

I don't know if this has happened to other people or not. Most of my friends are autistic and/or neurodivergent so we are all somewhat aware that the modulation/volume of our voice can go up and down.

My voice is typically soft to moderate and high-pitched. I can get loud, but I think I can usually tell when I do.

I know it's happened to me and a couple of people - and we usually kindly inform the other, if there is an issue (like it's late and people are trying to sleep or something). It's never been a huge problem.

However, there's been this behavior from two of my exes (including my ex-spouse) when I've tried to advocate for myself or been passionate about a topic... they've looked really upset and told me:

"You're screaming."

It has always taken me aback because, in those moments, I've reflected and didn't intend to scream or even think I was screaming. It always leaves me confused and uncertain... and I lose my train of thought.

They don't really mention my voice going up most other times when I know I'm screaming.

It's possible that the volume of my voice did go up during those times - I don't know for sure, but I don't think so.

Later on, in reflection, I realized it was possibly a way for them to shut me up when I was saying something they didn't like... or if they were embarrassed by me in public.

Have people pointed out to you that you're screaming, and you didn't think you were?

Another line of dialogue I recorded for my water elemental boss. A big inspiration for making stuff like this, honestly, was NieR. In the first playthrough of the game, you encounter enemies that speak a language you don’t understand. But on subsequent runs, their dialogue gets subtitles and you get context for what they’re saying, painting a much more tragic picture of what was going on throughout the game. I just love details like that, so even if my players think the dialogue is gobbledygook, I’m content with that. BTW, this is all of the dialogue I wrote using the Aquan cypher: 1. "Xjz jewi zua duni jisi? Miewi ni!" 2. "Ov ot pu ati. Vji huft jofi op gies." 3. "Cav vjip... Vji xusmf xomm sivasp vu xjev ov updi xet. Vjot ot... Huuf." 4. "Nusvemt, cixesi vji Qsuqjiv, gus ov tiit emm."

[proudace]

I think it would be hilarious if random Gotham citizens heard snippets of Jason and Bruce’s fights

Like, someone’s just walking out a building, maybe the end of their shift or whatever, and just hears

“You want me to be a dumbass so bad! I read Jane Austin!” And the rest is muffled by wind

They look up, catch a glimpse of shiny red and the cowl’s ears, and are left wondering whether the criminal gang leader, or the personification of Gotham’s vengeance read Jane Austin in their spare time

#Batman’s voice isn’t all that well known at this point in time #he never publicly speaks for the justice league #and obviously the Red Hood’s voice isn’t known #anyone who hears it is either dead or too scared of him to describe it #plus they could both have voice modulators #batman #red hood #dc comics #dc #batfam shenanigans

JOHN: The head of the family ain't here.

#you can't hear gifs of course but it's super eerie how sr modulates his voice when he says 'quite something you've become' #and then briefly obfuscates/covers then passes over tommy with that shadowy mass of his body #an entirely different conversation is happening here #peaky blinders #tvedit #peakyblindersgifs #tv #but now thinking of satorial choices i really like how tommy's black suit matches sr's where arthur's reflecting it through his bowtie #that black horse ...

Personal headcanons for the older Grayson bro Danny au:

whenever Dick comes over Danny threatens all the ghosts to stay in the zone on pain of second death

Red Huntress deals with any rampaging nonsentient ghosts while Dick is in town, he thinks she's cool as fuck but that feeling is diminished when he sees her and his brother's weird fucking flirting (for whatever reason Dick doesn't tell B about the ghosts or he does but B doesnt believe him, you decide)

Dick has very minor ectocontamination from being around Amity for so long, it's basically non-existent but now he has slightly longer canines (baby fangs!), an eyeshine, and cold ass hands (nothing to the extent of the Fenton kids who are constantly extremely off-putting to anyone who isn't from amity park)

Bruce: Did you have fun staying with your older brother this weekend?

Dick, who is usually an utter troll: Yeah, hunting down the reanimated food was kinda weird but I think that's just how the Fentons bond

Bruce: that's nice, Dick

Dick visits whenever he needs a break, Danny heads to Gotham/Blud to hang out when he misses his lil bro. They video call whenever possible and Dick is added to the fenton kids groupchat

Early on Danny phased through into the mansion basement out of curiosity and distrust of billionaires, he doesn't know why he's surprised (guess he will just have to ask Tucker to have his phone rigged to notify him of any Robin related vigilante activity that hits the news)

Amity park is pretty cut off from the outside world, no one there recognizes him as Richie Grayson and 90% of the population think batman is a hoax or aren't even aware he's a thing, whenever he visits he's just seen as Fenton's little brother.

I love yj Dick's creepy ass laugh so I'm keeping it and guess what? It's genetic. 3 goosebump-raising cackles coming right up

Dick teaches Danny and Ellie trapeze, Danny is kinda shit at it but it's fun bonding time anyway

Ellie has absolutely convinced Dick to set fire to a Valdco warehouse with her

Danny and Ellie have an ongoing competition trying to convince Dick that "Space/The ocean is coolest!!", they get into fist fights over it. Dick thinks it's funny so he will never pick a side (they're fun fights not I'm mad at u fights, it's cool)

Dick is the goth one, I will not elaborate

#dp x dc #danny phantom #this au is running circles in my head #unrelated headcanons: #jason is only a bit more ectocontaminated than dick since its not like the lazarus pit brought him back to life #it just healed him #Red huntress knows about danny being phantom #also red huntress is called red hunter in my head cuz the suit is much more androgenous and she wears a voice modulator #maybe crimson hunter? there are way too many reds #GRAY GHOST REAL #im a gray ghost truther 1st and person second #not related at all but i wanted ppl to know #i have more but i cant think of them rn so this is all #oh wait maybe Red Hunter/Huntress is part of justice league dark #as a treat for me personally #red hunter sounds kinda lame doesnt have the same finesse as huntress but whatever #too bad huntsman is already taken in dc #older grayson bro au #mine

lmfao it turns out Firmament used AI tools to modulate human voiceovers and muss up some textures and now kickstarter backers are malding and asking for their money back. and news outlets are treating those requests like they aren't ridiculous

#kickstarter backers wanting their money back for entirely baseless reasons is always funny but this is up there #the only salient complaint listed is that the human VA for the narrator isn't credited by name #and the studio's rebuttal is that the VA chose to not be credited by name + had full control over the AI modulation of their voice #and that this same VA had also gone without being credited in previous games at their own request #articles also seem to be implying that the lore of the game is “shallow” compared to Myst because of AI involvement #as opposed to the part where Myst is 3-4 games being dimly remembered through nostalgia goggles whereas Firmament is a standalone game #they could be lying about the VA thing i guess but that's such a bizarre and easily falsifiable claim to make

I was experimenting with my mic and audacity because I have a boss monster in my upcoming Pathfinder game that doesn’t speak Common. I’ve always wanted to do something like this, so I found an Aquan cypher here: https://dndtopics.com/languages/aquan/ I have four lines of dialogue he speaks that all sound like this. What do you think?
