> And now we have OpenAI showing that they have no qualms about deep-faking a voice actor if they don't get the proper rights.
No, that isn't established. They are claiming they used a different actress, so no deep-faking involved. If the actress turns out to not be real, then yes Sam A is guilty of lying and some pretty gross behavior. If it turns out to be true though, what they did is a bit scummy, but not dishonest ~and not illegal~, unless you believe that people who sound similar to Scarlett Johansson don't have the same rights to their voice as Johansson does to hers.
Edit: It may actually be illegal given the intent. There is court precedent on this
