They're clearly trying to imitate human interaction, and believe it or not, the vast majority of humans have genders they're perfectly happy with.

Well, but it is not a human. It's a talking computer and trying to sound not like a computer is disingenuous, creepy and heavily misleading. The movie "her" made a good point about that.
I actually think the movie "Her" showed us the opposite - people feel comfortable with their computer sounding like a human. Almost every character in the film finds it near natural.
