Aisle CISO Jaya Baloo says users have passed the uncanny valley and anthropomorphize AI conversations.

Dark Reading Confidential episode 22 features Jaya Baloo, CISO and COO of Aisle, discussing why people react oddly to AI. Baloo argues conversational systems have passed the uncanny valley, so users treat exchanges as if they were with another person. The episode frames that tendency against cybersecurity tradeoffs made for utility. It is commentary from a podcast, not a new incident or research finding.

Key facts
  • The episode follows a talk Baloo gave at ISC2 Security Congress in Denver.
  • Host Becky Bracken also mentions recent public comments by Sam Altman about RAM.
  • The discussion centers on anthropomorphism rather than a specific product flaw.
