Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) has invited actress Scarlett Johansson to testify before the Oversight Committee regarding concerns over AI hijacking voice and likeness without consent. This move is part of broader efforts to pass stringent laws to protect individuals from unauthorized AI replication. The invitation follows a recent controversy involving Johansson and an AI lobbying group, which has urged Congress to outlaw deepfakes. The testimony, dubbed 'Scarlett Letter,' will address issues related to OpenAI’s ChatGPT assistant 'Sky' and the broader implications of AI voice replication. Johansson is expected to testify on Capitol Hill, backed by GOP support.
