I had a window popping up, notifying me that "Speech Downloader" is trying to modify my system settings.
Can anybody help me out, what kind of process or app "Speech Downloader" is?

Found a solution here. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7696701?start=0&tstart=0
Need to go to System Prefs > Accessibility > Speech > System Voice (drop down) > Customize. Then uncheck any voices in the list that have a "Upgrade to enhanced quality" check box next to them.

It's basically the voice of Siri. If you change it to, for example, Male (America), that message will pop up. If it's the first time that pops up, it's probably because you enabled Siri for the first time.
