Not sure if this will make it possible to have better voices with VoiceOver?

I love the voices. We have her voiceover already. My favorite voices are from the vocalizer sympathizer. They are Karen and Samantha. I like them in any of the variants that they come in. I would love to have the premium high versions that are in jaws and windows, though for the phones. Not sure if we could have that. I don’t think we could have super human sound voices on the screen reader anyway yet because those voices still need to be able to navigate a screen reader and have the processing power to do all that so we’ll have to see what happens. I think the Voice says that we have now we’re pretty good too. But I guess we’ll see what happens in a few years. I think the voices that we have are pretty good too. I think the voice is for Siri are pretty good. Although we do need to have Scottish voices since there’s already a Scottish English vocal voice. I’m sure there’s probably other languages that don’t have yet that need it.
