Scarlett Johansson is seeking legal action against an app that used her likeness and simulated voice without her permission.
Scarlett Johansson is the latest actor to take a stand on artificial intelligence. The 'Black Widow' star has taken legal action, per Variety, against an AI image-generating app called Lisa AI: 90s Yearbook & Avatar for her voice and likeness in an ad posted on X, formerly Twitter. Johansson’s attorney told the outlet, 'We do not take these things lightly. Per our usual course of action in these circumstances, we will deal with it with all legal remedies that we will have.
The 'Avengers' star isn’t alone in having to call out a company for using their likeness or voice without permission. Tom Hanks took to social media last month to warn his fans that his image was being used in a dental promotion without his consent. 'There's a video out there promoting some dental plan with an AI version of me. I have nothing to do with it,' he wrote on Instagram, signing his name to the comment.
