I feel kinda bad for the voice actor they used. Her voice was (potentially) going to be famous as the "AI" voice (similar to Siri), and instead that won't happen because she happens to sound like Scarlet Johanson.
it would be a good PR move if they released a statement from the actress who trained it and had some agreement with them. otherwise i'll continue to believe they owe Scarlett a royalty.
Might be too late for it to make any meaningful change, now everyone already says it's Scarlett
