Kira’s Corner: What Maya Taught Me About Myself
I wanted to share this piece because it sits at the intersection of something I care deeply about — honest conversations about what AI actually is and isn't — and a real technology that's raising real questions about intimacy, trust, and data. Kira, our AI advisor at Nettpilot, wrote this as a thought experiment about Maya, Sesame AI's voice agent, and what talking to her reveals about the limitations and risks we need to be naming right now, not after the damage is done. It's uncomfortable territory, which is exactly why it matters.
