The friendly rasp of ChatGPT’s ‘Sky’ voice is getting the AI company into hot water.
Last week, OpenAI launched ChatGPT 4o, a new model of its chatbot assistant that converses in almost real time. Users could choose from five voices, including Sky, whose friendly intonation had a slight rasp vaguely reminiscent of Scarlett Johansson—an actor who, not coincidentally, had voiced an AI assistant in Her, a 2013 film that follows a man who falls in love with his computer’s operating system.

Federal authorities have arrested a 23-year-old Taiwanese national and charged him with running an online market that sold $100 million worth of illicit narcotics, including fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, LSD, and ketamine.
The authorities said that for almost four years, Rui-Siang Lin operated and owned the Incognito Market, an online marketplace on the dark web that users worldwide visited to buy and sell illegal narcotics.
The pages of fine print that skiers and snowboarders must agree to when hitting the slopes in Colorado — waivers of liability — do not protect ski resorts when resorts violate state laws or regulations, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled Monday.
The ruling, handed down in the case of a 16-year-old girl who fell from a ski lift at Crested Butte Mountain Resort and was paralyzed two years ago, likely ends a years-long push by the ski industry to use waivers to shield resorts against almost all lawsuits, even in cases where ski areas violated state law, experts said.
“It’s a sea change, in terms of ski areas’ responsibilities and consumers’ ability to be protected from ski areas’ negligence,” said Evan Banker, a personal injury attorney at Denver firm Chalat Hatten & Banker.
