The visual design acts as the “first impression” of your brand’s digital presence. According to the principle of anthropomorphism, users attribute human characteristics to non-human objects immediately. If the visual cues (avatar, color, layout) trigger trust and warmth, the user is more likely to engage. If the design feels cold or “uncanny,” it triggers a “flight” response, causing the user to abandon the site before a transaction can occur.
In robotics, the Uncanny Valley is the feeling of revulsion caused by a robot that looks almost human but not quite. In customer service, this occurs when there is dissonance between the interface and the interaction—for example, a bot that pretends to be a human but lacks empathy, or a futuristic interface that speaks in rigid bureaucratic language. To avoid this, businesses should design bots to feel humane (empathetic and helpful) rather than trying to trick users into thinking the bot is human.
The article suggests three main approaches with different psychological effects:
The “typing awareness indicator” (the bouncing dots) creates an illusion of presence. While an AI can reply in milliseconds, an instant wall of text feels robotic and jarring. A delay of 1-2 seconds mimics the natural rhythm of human conversation, making the response feel more thoughtful and processed, which increases user trust in the answer.
You should use the Persona Spectrum to align the bot’s voice with your brand identity and the user’s intent:
A generic bot that tries to appeal to everyone usually appeals to no one.
The Reciprocity Rule is a psychological principle stating that humans feel obliged to return favors. If a chatbot is designed to be polite, generous, and helpful upfront, users are statistically more likely to “return the favor” by providing their contact information (email/phone) or completing a lead qualification form.
The Service Recovery Paradox is a phenomenon where a customer who experiences a problem—but has it resolved quickly and empathetically—becomes more loyal than a customer who never had a problem at all. A well-designed chatbot that offers instant, frustration-free solutions can facilitate this recovery, turning a potential complaint into increased brand loyalty.
