Personal AI becomes a thing. Who voices yours? (beehaw.org)

Let's say we're at a place where personal AI is a thing. You can have it speak with any voice from any person in history or any media without any copyright issues or the like. Who would you want to voice yours?

I'm going to go with a classic, Majel Barratt. When I think of AI, how we use it now and how we could use it in the future, the Computer voice in Star Trek TNG - Voyager seems like a perfect fit.

majel for me.

i once setup a lab of machines (were talkin win98) , and set all of the windows functions to audibly play snips from TNG.. all majel. "booting", "starting program", "shutting down"... it was pretty great... until you get 30 kids doin stuff at the same time sans headphones.
