    I actually recognize voices very well. Still, I never associated Sky’s voice with Her’s voice. But then I was surprised that OpenAI changed Sky’s voice, which I noticed immediately. Doesn’t she sound even more like Her now?

    The thing is, Sky’s voice does not sound like Scarlett Johansson’s. Give it a listen and see what you think.
