From the article itself:

The researchers found that Sky was also reminiscent of other Hollywood stars, including Anne Hathaway and Keri Russell. The analysis of Sky often rated Hathaway and Russell as being even more similar to the AI than Johansson.

I’ve watched Her many years back, and I’ve been following a lot of Johansson’s work in the MCU franchise; I don’t hear her in Sky beyond both voices being similarly aged “female” (can’t really assume the gender of the AI model) voices.

If there are statistical analyses that says otherwise, and aligns with at least some anecdotal evidence, then it isn't “very obvious”.

Also, people calling out dissimilarities from their anecdotal observations, along with statistical evidence against your personal view doesn’t equate to siding with the company, or against some popular celebrity; but rather, simply calling out their observations. This is just a discussion as to whether or not the voice is similar, try not to get too personally attached to either parties.

Ok, then: why are you siding against the very clear and damning evidence to defend an extremely exploitative company with zero regards from anyone else’s rights when it’s very clear that they’re in the wrong?

If you read the article, the evidence indicates it isn't her.

You mean the bullshit flows like a waterfall, and I’m not an idiot, so I don’t buy it. Why do you?

Really: explain to me why you wanna suck shit from the literal asshole that is covering all of us in diarrhea while trying to convince me your breath smells like mint?

I can see the reality we live in. You’d rather live in a fantasy.

I've seen what copyright abuse can do. I'm not interested in a world where scarjo can issue take down requests on every video with someone in it that sounds close to her.

I don't think scarjo deserves to own all voices that are mildly like hers nor do I think the movie owns the concept of a bubbly ai assistant.

If we go down this path and give ownership to vast spectrums of tonality to every celebrity, singer and voice actor, we will quickly end up with most of it owned by someone or another.

I'm also for open source, so I'm not interested in simping for Scarlet or Altman. I also suggest you listen to a comparison of both voices.
