The robots we encounter are synthetic but also designed to be more human for their interactions with humans. The conventional robots of the modern-day one may wish to emulate and improve upon are the digital assistants and automatic services we encounter often. A logical robot with a specific goal would be less emotional and more stoic, while a learning robot, or an AI, may try to learn human emotions and express them. Some robots are quite intelligent and logical, others are programmed or need to learn, being more infantile in their speech. The robots could be evil, like the Terminator from The Terminator, or AUTO from WALL-E. The robot could be a helpful droid, like C-3PO, a translator droid, or R2-D2, an astromech droid, from Star Wars. The character of the robot also depends on the writing of the robot. The robot’s voice depends heavily on the mechanics of the robot and the intentions of the writer in the portrayal of the robot. Many robot voices go through filters to sound more mechanical, however, if the goal is an android or cyborg, the robot may sound more human-like and the speech is more smooth than choppy. Robots could sound more synthetic or human, friendly or hostile, helpful or rebellious. There are many robot characters who take on different roles and have different personalities in the media. Some are human-sounding while others are undeniably robotic. Robotic voices, though some are mechanical or digital sounding, are made by people! Just think of your favorite robots from the past.
