Curious that Mico seems to have a British accent whereas the kid who is setting up camp is clearly an American. I'm a Brit so please tell me you Americans, do you see us Brits as being more trustworthy in stressful situations (such as having ruined your girlfriend's birthday cake)? Alternatively, has Microsoft merely used the wrong TTS voice? I wouldn't put it past them.
Interesting question! I haven't used Micro yet but I would imagine that it has multiple voice options (AI assistant and "traditional" voice assistants tend to.)
I'm originally from Canada (but am a dual citizen of the US now.) There actually is a long tradition of British voices seeming more "trustworthy" and "professional" over here in North America, I think.
I remember Batman in particular: The butler Alfred had a British accent.
