I never made the connection between the Sky voice and Scarlett Johansson's. I've seen many of her movies. She has an extremely distinctive voice that has a certain huskiness to it and the Sky voice totally lacks that.
Some voices are sexy and both of them fall into that category -- but that's beside the point.
That aside, it is genuinely pleasant to have a conversation with chatGPTo and some of that has to do with the voices. There's a kind of irony here because people generally imagined that AI would be cold, logical, unempathetic, etc. But LLMs are the opposite; they're extremely polite and deferential. Meanwhile they aren't that good at logic!
- gandalfgreybeer 2y agoI made that connection but never really thought it was the same. I just thought it was very close > Meanwhile they aren't that good at logic This statement is contentious; depends on what level of abstraction you're looking at. > Extremely polite and deferential This is a setting that can be turned off btw.
- queuebert 2y agoI don't find any of the OpenAI voices sexy or deferential. They sound fake happy to me, like a customer service phone menu or an elementary school teacher, and reek of Bay area vocal fry [1] and lilt. I wish there was a greater diversity of accents and speaking patterns available, such as can be seen on the Speech Accent Archive [2]. 1. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0yL2GezneU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0yL2GezneU 2. https://accent.gmu.edu/browse_language.php?function=find&language=english https://accent.gmu.edu/browse_language.php?function=find&lan...
- TecoAndJix 2y agocounterpoint - it is the first connection made when I heard the voice. I also really enjoyed the movie Her.
