Essentially a cloaker that leaves you visible to everyone except AIs and cyborgs. Combined with a signal jammer, this could be really cool. You shouldn't be able to activate a regular cloaker with this item though.

Just call it an Electronic Field Disruptor or something, I like it. I think I've seen it suggested before though.
Would be nice to have, especially if it hides you from turrets and Guardbuddies and such.

I like the idea, but I wouldn't take it as far as turrets. Maybe Guardbuddies OR Securitrons, but not both. (Of the two, I'd suggest Securitrons, since they are easier to mass-produce.)
Turrets are basically the only line of defense an AI has, and it's already easy to bypass them if you know what you're doing, so I think it's probably a bit much. E-Mags can already take care of them, I think, if you're quick enough.

Make this replace the original cloaker.

Nah.
If anything, I would think that the electromagnetic energies produced by a laser gun or a taser shot would cause your cloak to flicker briefly.
Y'know, you know that there's a cloaker around, but they can just stop shooting and run the hell off if they get mobbed!
