Yes Gibran2, sadly they did decide to use the female robot voice for the whole thing. At first I was like OK this is alright, but half the time I keep wondering what this would sound like with Sigourney Weaver or James Earl Jones voice instead. Although, there are many segments where professors/scientists talk at length instead of the robot voice. She basically narrates introductions and conclusions for most chapters.
I think they chose the female robot voice because they are trying to present the information as unbiasedly as possible, but still an odd choice. Well, if anyone sticks through and watches some here and there, I'd love to continue a discussion on the information. I'm trying to dissect it right now to see what purpose and points they present as I'm curious to know what agenda this was made for. At the moment, it seems very anti-monetary, anti-consumerism and anti-pollution which seems all well and good to me so far.

P.S. Gibran2 I'm glad you checked it out. I have a feeling you would enjoy how they present the information (except the female robot voice haha). When I first saw this portion of the "Science" chapter, it reminded me of your character; in a good way
Here's a little sampler:
