We don’t take this lightly! Scarlett Johansson sues AI app
Scarlett Johansson has contacted a lawyer for legal proceedings. The actress did not like the use of her image without knowledge.
The 38-year-old actress has filed a lawsuit against an artificial intelligence (AI) app that used her name and image in an advertisement. Scarlett appeared in a 22-second commercial that was hosted by a program called Lisa AI: 90s Yearbook & Avatar.
Representatives for the movie star confirmed that she is not a spokesperson for the app.
“We don’t take these things lightly. As is our normal course of action in such circumstances, we will pursue all legal remedies available to us,” said Scarlett’s lawyer. The video began with an old behind-the-scenes clip from the Marvel movie Black Widow.
«How are you guys? This is Scarlett, and I want you to follow me,” says the artist. The audience was then shown photos created by the AI. The images on them are reminiscent of Johansson. The fake voice imitating the actress continued speaking.
“It’s not just limited to avatars. You can also create images with text and even videos with artificial intelligence. I don’t think you should miss this,” the voice said. The ad said in fine print: “Images created by Lisa AI. It has nothing to do with this person.»
