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.

John DeLancie. That man's voice is honey to my ears.

Alternatively, Kari Wahlgren.

Edit: How the fuck could I forget about Stephen Russell? Give me Garrett or Nick Valentine, either would be fine.

Speaking of Nick Valentine, Humphrey Bogart could also be an interesting voice for personal AI.

And I also forgot the lovely Laura Bailey and Matt Mercer.
