I was hopeful that they avoided the well known sultry voice this go around, but alas. There is little hope for these companies.

The full duplex is awesome, and the feedback that it is getting what you're saying is ok, but in some of the demos was a little overkill.

I'll agree that using the "Golden Girls" was at least more entertaining than the usual pitch.

You have always been able to pick between voices of many kinds though? Do you find them all sultry? From the British woman to the 17th century pirate soundalike?

If there was a voice that stripped away all the affectation I would be more likely to use it. It pretending to be human is extremely off-putting for me.

		tell it "speak like a robot without affectation or emotion" in your custom instructions

Why do you care? You can select other voices. Why do you need to control others?

What is at the root of your need for domination?

		They are stealing/imitating someone elses brand. Amping up an emotional connection is great for business. Why do you think THEY need to dominate via an emotional connection?
