This will alarm you, then.

I set Siri to a masculine voice, because I disliked the gendered assumptions I felt with the default.

I gave my Claw Discord bot a feminine identity (Ada, with a pfp of Ada Lovelace) for the same reason. But then I set up a separate Discord bot for an LLM outside of Claw, and gave it a masculine identity so I could easily distinguish between the two mentally and expressively.

All still clankers, but "it" is too general for my dual-bot config.
