https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech...irst-celebrity-voice-amazon-alexa/2447992001/

There will be both an explicit version and a clean version when the feature launches later this year. The Alexa "skill" will cost 99 cents as an introductory offer. After the introductory period, the price will be $4.99, according to the product page.

While Jackson is the first official celebrity voice for Alexa, in a 2018 Super Bowl commercial, celebrities Gordon Ramsay, Rebel Wilson, Cardi B and Anthony Hopkins were called on to fill in when Alexa lost hers.

This actually is pretty damn cool. I wonder if it's all Alexa devices on a prime account or if you can pick and choose.

 

[gamz247]

I wonder what the answer to, "What does Marsellus Wallace look like?" will be.

 

[Grimlaking]

I wonder if you can Start that scene with the Alexa.

"Alexa, ask me a question."

What does Marceles Wallace look like?

"What?"

What does he look like?

"Uhhh... he's black."

Does he look like a bitch?

"What?"

DOES HE LOOK...


You get the idea.

I wish more voice based devices did this.

One id cool things about having a TomTom back in the day was being able to change the navigation voices.

Alexa is nothing but spyware! Only stupid people would pay to get spied on, seriously.. Oh? Samuel L. Jackson? Count me in!

 

[OutOfPhase]

If they make a GlaDOS one, I'll buy it.

For someone else.

 

[Krenum]

Meh, Morgan Freeman voice or bust.

 

[The Mad Atheist]

Wonder what he'll say if you mentions Mobius from the Matix?...

 

[BinarySynapse]

Wonder what he'll say if you mentions Mobius from the Matix?...

 

[Darth Ender]

he'd be all like. "Who is Mobius?" Then he'd go chill with Morpheus and pop pills.

If they get Liam Neeson on board I might actually purchase one of these just to hear him describe Alexa's 'particular set of skills'

Not that I'll ever let Alexa into my house, I'd vote for a Christopher Walken voice.

 

[MaZa]

I could have sworn that there is a comedy clip about having Samuel L Jackson in some voice commanded device. Well, now it is going to be reality.

*Edit* yeah, here it is. And it was Alexa too.

[cyklondx]

Person: Alexa do you spy on me?
Alexa (In Samuel L. Jackson voice): Motherf... Are you calling me a N....
Person: What?
Alexa: Calling caps on this damn fool.

 

[Aix.]

 

[Jagger100]

Will the N-word a la Pulp Fiction be allowed in the explicit? I've had mine get triggered by TV or a phone conversation. This could be awkward. Otherwise I want.

Haven't watched in years and just let Google's auto complete take the wheel.
