Just call a, Siri will be answered to. Although we always flirt with it, also found 13 useful functions. But there is always a question haunting: a gentle boy, beautiful girl, there are real people behind those exist?

The Guardian recently found three Siri's voice: Siri British male voice (unfortunately, this dub has been replaced) Jon Briggs,BBC radio two host; American woman Susan Bennett; and GPS recording Karen Jacobsen.

Susan in 2005 recorded an electronic voice, 4 hours per day, 5 days a week for a month. She also specifically mentions that "Siri is very special, because it is the first version sounds like human speech. "

Susan and Karen experiences a similar, she attended and passed the interview. When she saw the recruitment notice, just say to yourself, "they wanted was me. The job is tailor-made for me. "

• When found his voice in Siri, three react to it?

Jon while watching BBC Breakfast programme, BBC technology correspondent are testing iPhone. Then he heard his voice. "The reporter said, ' I know that voice, I felt glad to hear. "Susan is to wait until the peer to send a message to her Internet confirm that it is their voice.

• When friends realized they "means" while Siri, what reaction?

Jon said, we are very happy, like his voice too. When this voice to be replaced when some netizens on Twitter petition Apple to retain his voice.

Susan says, not easily associated with Siri and her people, so the people who know the truth will surprise.

Karen was recorded by an array of special speech: let the kids to brush their teeth; went to bed early; listen to mother's words or something like that.

· It is strange, though Apple use their voices, never formally told them. They contacted Apple?

Susan said that she had indirect contact with Apple. At a Conference on Science and technology last year, she met Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. "He was one of the voices that I am Siri. I am very grateful. He was a great man, a true genius. "

Jon wants to contact Apple, and hit a wall. "I asked them, if I could help them about Siri. I never open to the public and I myself was Siri's voice. But I have been working on BBC radio two for 13 years, so many people to recognize my voice. But the company showed an attitude of disdain ... ... Apple is a great technology company, but they were not so friendly to people. Did not inform each other of cases the human voice into the pockets of millions of people, when people to verify time, let him answer it? "

• You and Siri (or your own) dialogue?

Karen says her son can ask Siri questions, however, when "mother in the cell phone" unable to answer his questions, he would be frustrated. Ted Baker note 3 cover

Susan: "I asked what Siri, Siri is impatient, said, ' I'm talking to you! ' When people ask me if I and Siri (oneself) to speak, I would say, ' no, I say to myself is enough! '"

• Apple replacement Siri voice system, you would have thought it?

Susan said she would be surprised, but also understand that "everything is changing, right? "

Jon said, his voice last year on the "retired". "Of course it will feel a bit disappointed, technology is always in progress. 007 by the different actors play, but Siri voice except for the version of the first generation. "
