Federation computers of the Star Trek universe, the Halo (Game) AI, the Andromeda (TV series) AI, SAL (HAL's twin sister from 2010). Lots o' female voices in the fictional AI space.

Star Trek's computer voice was Gene Roddenberry's wife. That doesn't sound like a demeaning sexist choice.

I'll give you the others though, especially Cortana from HALO https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Cortana#Criti...
