Is M$ perpetrating misogynistic sentiment by making a core feature of their OS symbolic of a woman, that has become intrusively possessive?
>M$
super edgy
Cortana isn't a woman its an AI, and if you read that far into things without realizing that, you deserve misogynistic sentiment.

>female name
>female game character
>female default voice
sure, totally not symbolic of a woman. They really nailed it, creating gender-neutral AI.

Thanks M$?!

Cortana in the Halo series is an AI. Cortana on Windows is just a voice assistant. There's a big difference between these.

A female voice is far easier to create an accurate tone for than a male voice. Female voices naturally have far less tonal range and emotion than male voices, and commonly sound better to the majority of people.

It's an asset. They are mimicking the feel of having a gf really good. The only thing MS needs to come up with now is a device manipulated by Cortana that strokes your dick, and she is finished.

M$ has been a thing longer than you have been alive.

All they need to do is make her real and I will forget about the privacy issues and whatnot.

This and also because there's some sort of psychological comfort that comes about from women's voices for most people than men's voices.

Tesco in the UK have changed all their self service machines from female to male voices. Both male and female customers found requests from a female voice to be infuriating, no one wants a hoe telling you what to do.

It might just be an amerifat thing then. I have never heard any machine ever say anything to me in a voice that wasn't female and I did in fact find sauce on this a while ago talking about how some troubled women with their past boyfriends would beat the shit out of them and make them afraid to talk to male robots.

dubs of truth

No female voice in the history of Humanity could ever beat the voices of Alan Rickman, Jeremy Irons, Vincent Price, Sean Connery, James Earl Jones (Darth Vader), Michael Ironside, and Morgan 'Niecefucker' Freeman, among many others.
Even iconic female voices of today belong to dumb bitch whore singers who are attempting to copy Michael Jackson and fail miserably.

What a fat disgusting slut.

That's only if they sound cute.
They never sound cute.
I'd rather have a robot sound male, since all it's doing is spitting out instructions.
