If you could pick the voice for your home AI, who would it be?

[Kazukian]

I'm conflicted, Sophia Vergera, James Earl Jones, or Billy West doing Fry.

 

[Imp]

ScarJo.

It'd be like living in "Her."

 

[Paratus]

Paul Bettany. But not as Jarvis, but as Chaucer.

 

[cbrunny]

Lt. Commander Data

 

[Crono]

Kristen Bell

 

[dawp]

stephen hawkings

 

[IronWing]

Georgette Franklin from the Mary Tyler Moore Show

 

[Kazukian]

Majel Barret or HAL

 

[zinfamous]

My first thought was Scarlett Johansson because of the raspy sexy awesomeness of her voice, but then I realized she already played an AI and now I feel embarrassed for being so derivative.

 

[Sonikku]

Majel Barrett

 

[Kneedragger]

I think my first choices would be Sean Connery and Mr T. Don't know how long I use Mr. T though..

 

[Iron Woode]

Hugh Laurie but using Gregory House's voice.
or
Peter Griffin from family Guy.

 

[brainhulk]

Adam West or a Female Geisha in Japanese accent

 

[RossMAN]

Walter White

 

[Crono]

Walter White

Yeah, but you'd never know who's at the door.

 

[MongGrel]

I could think of many female voices myself.

Jennifer Tilly comes to mind as an unusual one that hasn't been mentioned.

Lauren Bacall ?

 

[Red Squirrel]

First instinct is Hal9000, because that's the name of my home automation server, and since my name is not dave it would probably not lock me out.

But some sexy robotic type female voice would be pretty cool too.

it's crossed my mind to add voice activation to my house actually, would be kind of cool.

 

[RossMAN]

Yeah, but you'd never know who's at the door.

Good point, I'd like to change my selection to Alec Baldwin.

 

[MichaelD]

First instinct is Hal9000, because that's the name of my home automation server, and since my name is not dave it would probably not lock me out..

I also like the HAL9000 idea. But I think Morgan Freeman would be great too. I enjoyed his voiceovers on the WAYS app for a couple of weeks before they just took him away for whatever reason. "You seem to have missed the exit...recalculating to help you...I think you should take the next exit and turn around..." in his calm, reassuring voice. Total win.

 

[MongGrel]

Jack Nicholson ?

Christopher Walken ?

Slim Pickins ?

Dare I say it, Hedley Lamarr.

 

[Humpy]

I think my first choices would be Sean Connery and Mr T. Don't know how long I use Mr. T though..

Mr.T would be awesome.

"Time to go to work fool!"

"You're out of butter fool!"



R2D2 would be great too.

"Beepidee beep bleep!"

Wut?

 

[Red Squirrel]

The best one with R2D2 is when you have people over you could act like you actually understand it.

"R2 set temperature to 22 please"

beepu beep beep bedu

"No, set temperature to two two please"

beep beeeep buu

"Yes"

"I still need to work on the algorithm but it's almost there. "

 

[Zeze]

Are you guys effin kidding me.

You all serious?

DAVID ATTENBOROUGH

Everything you do would be epic.

 

[Crono]

DAVID ATTENBOROUGH

Obviously it's not possible now (unless it's synthesised) but his brother would have been awesome, too.

 

[John Connor]

Arnold Schwarzenegger.
