Humanizing computers: The original voice of the iPhone assistant Siri has been given by a voice actor Susan Bennett. Siri the product debuted in the App Store in 2010 and then appeared on the iPhone 4S in 2011.

Bennett says, "I think that voices are very personal," further she adds, "and I think that's one of the reasons why people love Siri and all the other digital assistants, because they do bring a bit of humanity to all this machinery we're dealing with."(http://www.vox.com/2015/6/23/8831131/siri-voiceover-susan-bennett)

“Our thinking then will be a hybrid of biological and non-biological thinking. We’ll be able to extend our limitations and think in the cloud. We’re going to put gateways to the cloud in our brains,”
 
“We’re going to gradually merge and enhance ourselves. In my view, that’s the nature of being human – we transcend our limitations.”

The beautiful human minds have touched the ultimate frontiers of thoughts/researches in all the fields of Physics and Metaphysics in last 200 years of combined human civilization. 

Mere thinking the many possibilities of cloud-powered brains....just thrills !!

Soon we all shall be able to extend our limitations and think in the cloud, first with gateways in our hands and then embedded nanobots in our brain cells itself !!
