That doesn't mean anything. They could have been and were likely developing the process and technology while having Johansson in mind the whole time.
> never had the movie Her or SJ's name mentioned to her a single time
How do you know that?
The article says:
>The agent, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to assure the safety of her client, said the actress confirmed that neither Johansson nor the movie “Her” were ever mentioned by OpenAI.
It was mentioned by Sam himself on Twitter. So this is a bold face lie I can’t believe anyone is buying.
So an anonymous statement from a puff piece when multiple verifiable public records show OpenAI publicly mentioning Johansson and Her. Count me skeptical.
