Command it all you like: it’s a *device*, not a person. Using your voice instead of keyboard doesn’t make it human.

If you want to consult the village elder or your life partner, that’s cool too. 

It’s worth remembering: we talk to humans we know personally differently than we talk to devices, pets, and humans we don’t know.

Plus: the voices on these can be changed.

I see this as creating a problem that doesn’t exist.
