  • Well, the answer is “at least 1”. We don’t know the destination of the polygamist or whether there were other travellers with less remarkable entourages.

    St. Ives is a popular tourist destination, but stupidly remote and takes a long time to reach. It’s likely that there are several people travelling to St. Ives at any given moment.




  • I doubt they are using Johansson’s voice. I expect they need much more studio-quality training data than they would have for her.

    The desire to create a “Her” might be real but explains why they chose a similar voice actress, made Sky the default, and continued to pursue Johansson to some day create the real thing.

    Suspending the Sky voice looks guilty but it might be a temporary action while the legal team considers their response. There might be a non-zero risk of being found liable if there were directions in the voice casting process to seek a result comparable to Scarlet Johansson. You’d want to collect and assess correspondence to see if that’s a possibility, which might take a while.
