Apple s Siri is currently offering a female voice and it has been since it was launched, but through its latest iOS beta, you can now freely select what voice you want to use for the digital voice assistant setup.
This also means that the original version will no longer be a default, which could help eliminate any gender bias issues, such as what the UN complained about in May 2019, as per a 9to5Mac report.
