Your whole argument about the Johannson issue depends on the presumption that OpenAI will end up being the loser in the legal battle or in the court of public opinion.
I think OpenAI will end up winning the legal battle. The voice is not similar enough to Johannson's for her to win.
On the court of public opinion, OpenAI will lose trust from a small portion of the population, but for the rest of the world, it's not gonna matter at all. The positive impact of "OpenAI just made the movie Her a reality" is bigger than the negative impact.

You see this all the time - it's why "military-grade" gets tossed on every random consumer gadget in regards to some specification. It's why if I told you my showerhead's pressure makes it illegal to buy locally, you'd think "ooh that's probably a really good showerhead" (yes I made this up, yes I was thinking of Seinfeld when I did).
