Does anyone use a non-default voice for the Google Assistant? (Same for Siri, Alexa etc.)

Granted I’m not someone who uses AI assistants a lot, but I’ve never seen anyone use any other voices than the default one (Red). There are 10 voices for Google Assistant, apparently. Do you or someone you know use them?

Apparently 12 voices for Google last time I counted. I'll sometimes roll a d12 (either grab a physical one or just ask the assistant to do it) and change it if I'm feeling bored

What utopia is this that you get a choice of 12?!! I just checked and I get two options - red or orange.

Might be a US thing? Coincidentally, rolled after leaving the first comment and got a 4, which happens to be orange

My Pixel 7 has 12 voices, maybe it’s a Pixel / Google device feature?

I’ve never noticed how many voices the 3rd party devices have (Samsung, etc.).

I’m on a Pixel 6

I use the newer “American Voice 2” for Siri. I don’t use Siri for a ton of things, but I do hear it a lot in the car when navigating with maps or doing other things with CarPlay.

I switched my Android assistant to a man’s voice; a woman’s voice serving as my digital assistant has always felt mildly sexist to me.

Is Android assistant different to Google assistant? As I want a virtual assistant on my device, but don’t use Google fro anything.

It’s the same thing; I was just being sloppy with terminology.
