So I updated to Ventura today, and I can confirm that the quality of Siri voices have declined with this release. I feel like that voices are less expressive in this release, so anyone has noticed this? I enjoyed reading using the Siri voices and now I regret I updated.

Ventura: High quality voices
I just upgraded to Ventura and noticed that the voices are poor as well. The reason seems to be that high-quality voices (if you downloaded them) are not preserved in the upgrade.
To fix this, go to System Settings/Accessibility/Spoken Content and click on the System Voice combo box (in my case it is Samantha). In the pop up menu, select "Manage Voices..." to download the high quality voices.
