i kinda love murderbot’s take on ‘robot voice’. it neither falls back on the typical genre convention monotone thing nor does it fully imitate modern voice software, but it manages to sound distinctly Off anyway, pretty much through cadence alone
you hear murderbot talk and it’s just ‘yeah that’s pretty much how it would sound if a computer with a human voice box learned tone modulation by watching 7000+ hours of campy tv serials’
