Samuel L. Jackson to voice Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa

Popular Hollywood actor Samuel L. Jackson is among the celebrities who will voice speech for Amazon's virtual assistant Alexa. Jackson's is the only celebrity voice Amazon has disclosed so far, Reuters reported.

Alexa has been tweaked with the help of machine learning to speak more like a person. The company announced on Wednesday that the new feature will be available to users later this year for a fee, reported The Guardian.

The company is also coming out with a multi-lingual mode for Alexa and a privacy feature, which will enable users to regularly delete voice recordings, besides a new range of voice-controlled Echo speakers. These new features are part of Amazon's attempts to outdo its competitors, Alphabet Inc's Google Assistant and Apple Inc's Siri. The company is also introducing an array of wearables, including eyeglasses that allow customers to communicate with Alexa.

Jackson is popular for his expletives-laden dialogues. "English, m****rf#***r!!! Do you speak it?," and "Say 'what' again. Say 'what' again, I dare you, I double dare you motherf#cker, say 'what' one more Goddamn time!" from the movie Pulp Fiction, "I've had it with these m****rf#****g snakes on this m****rf#****g plane!" from Snakes on a Plane and "I eat every m****rf#****g' thing," from True Romance are some of his popular one-liners.

Will Alexa respond to your next voice command with “English m****rf****r”?. Although unlikely, this certainly is an entertaining thought.
