Being Siri: meet the woman behind Apple's personal assistant – tech podcast
In 2005, Atlanta-based voiceover artist Susan Bennett recorded hundreds of hours of audio for a text-to-speech company. Six years later, on 4 October 2011, she quickly learned that those recordings had been licensed by Apple for the iPhone 4S's built-in personal assistant, Siri. Overnight, Susan's voice became globally recognised, whether she liked it or not. In this week's episode of Chips with Everything, Matt Shore speaks to Susan about her experiences of being thrust into the world of Siri and how her life has changed since that fateful day.
