    I use Siri all the time to read articles. Sometimes Siri says words with an accent like saying "Talk" and "Coffee" with a NY accent and says "Boston" with a Boston accent. Anyone else ever hear something weird that this happening?

    Yeah, the programmers did that intentionally, I guess. I think it's a slight mocking at Boston people, because Siri had tons of trouble to understand them for a long time.
