Personal AI becomes a thing. Who voices yours?

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.

  5. Bobcat Goldthwait (he's gotta do the voice tho)

Edit: bonus points if the AI is a little sassy.

A sassy Morgan Freeman voice is the perfect option for me as well😋

It's likely that most people think of themselves as a should-use-Morgan-Freeman-voice kind of person, when in reality they are a deserves-only-Bobcat-Goldthwait-voice kind of person.
