SOLON TOWNSHIP, Mich. (WOOD) — Deputies say they have arrested a man who is responsible for over $30,000 in thefts from the Cedar Springs area, starting in March.

Dannon Semposki, 50, of Cedar Springs, is in custody on a felony larceny charge, according to a Tuesday release from the Kent County Sheriff’s Office.

The sheriff’s office says it has recovered $10,000 worth of stolen property from a Solon Township home, including items like construction tools and a fridge that belong to residents of Kent County, northern Michigan and the Upper Peninsula.

Deputies say prosecutors are reviewing more charges against Semposki.

OpenAI is removing one of the voices used by ChatGPT. Users found that it sounded similar to Scarlett Johansson, the company announced on Monday, and Johansson herself released a statement saying she hired legal council to inquire about the Sky voice and get exact details about how it was developed. "We believe that AI voices should not deliberately mimic a celebrity's distinctive voice—Sky’s voice is not an imitation of Scarlett Johansson but belongs to a different professional actress using her own natural speaking voice," the company wrote in a blog post.
