Seems logical. People with deformities like down's syndrome are selected against, and people that are afraid of disgusting looking people are selected for. Stupid onions article. It also makes sense in the case of peoples faces being stomped in by mammoths or ripped apart by bears or whatever. The people most afraid of that shit will steer clear and survive, and are therefore selected for. Other animals are stupid and can't imagine why deformities would happen, so mechanisms like that don't evolve in them.

The thing is that if you do have an AI smart enough to run the show while everyone hops into the Matrix, said AI also makes setting up space infrastructure & stuff like von Neumann probes a fuckton easier. All it takes is a small portion of those setting up the AI to tell it "okay robots, after you get the asteroid detection & deflection equipment set up in orbit, why don't you use that infrastructure to set up some self replicating probes to nuclear rocket their way to nearby stars, and call us back if you find anything interesting". Said probes might be size of oil tankers, and still require a century or three to bootstrap up the infrastructure to build more probes, but that wouldn't be a big deal to a good AI.

You can not do this. You can correlate a gene to the production of a hormone, and then possible link a hormone to a behavior (this is also pseudoscience BTW) and then try to come up with a pseudo-evolutionary reason for the reproductive success of organisms with that gene ("males who had this gene made more hormones that made them aggressive so they won more fights and mated with more women and propogated their genes!") but ultimately this can not be directly tested for and any ad hoc explanation can be made.

You can't map a generalized neurons in different people to mental affects.
When I experience uncanny, or any other feeling, it is an entirely different set of neurons that fires in my brain vs. yours or anyone else's. Same for you and all other humans. You can't look at sets of neurons and derive experiences from them.
What you can do, is look at one organisms brain when it is experiencing one specific feeling or whatever, and then map it for that one specific organism and its feeling (and only momentarily, because over time different neurons are fired when we experience the same emotions and such).

No really. Relatively large amounts of copper are necessary for resetting synapses, so they get stuck after the processing. So eventually your grey matter gets stuck in some state that makes it unpleasant to perceive things that cannot be represented by the patterns currently stored in the stuck grey matter. It might be unfamiliar facial features, the "ugliness" of some avcents or languages, the revulsion from macrophoto insects etc. Literally anything you were not sufficiently exposed to before your grey matter got stuck will look or sound unpleasant. With sufficient copper that won't happen, as the grey matter will remain active and will seamlesly learn the patterns required.

I dont think that it is something that looks almost human but isn't that bothers. Close, but not quite. It's something that is *trying* to look human but isn't that is the issue. A subtle difference to be sure, but possibly significant nonetheless.

Maybe its just something like "that population is different from us, they have different cultural things, so they look different (could be body paint, piercing, etc) and our brains wanted to prevent infiltration of our population by another for some reason.

At first I thought it'd be the "other hominids that could be dangerous to us for whatever reason" (they wouldn't necessarily be dumber and more british than us; just different-looking and tribalistic, just like we would be to them), but I'm kind of skeptical now. I don't think we'd get the same uncanny valley reaction.

I think it could be an aversion to deception/disguise, deformity/disease, or both. Ancient warring hominids probably often wore crude masks for a variety of reasons, and those kind of resemble the faces of robots and such. We all still have a natural reaction when people wear certain kinds of masks that look like faces but clearly aren't quite faces.

Or certain afflictions could maybe change face features enough that we'd associate it with something to stay away from.

Or maybe these are all just-so stories and it's a non-specific association for anything we're unfamiliar with and which doesn't follow symmetry patterns that occur in nature. We're always trying to predict things in our environment, and that's so new and unfamiliar that it generates a feeling of fear and anxiety. The same's true of certain shapes and creatures in horror movies, for example. It's just so alien to us and makes us uneasy, because we don't know how to deal with it. There's nothing else out there that really fits that pattern, whereas a regular robot kind of looks like a machine, and we're used to machines. An ancient human would probably be extremely freaked out by many modern machines, like cars.

So maybe it's just fear of the totally unknown.

Also we dedicate a ton of specialized function to interpreting and memorizing human faces, so when we see something very face-like but also not, it may send a particularly powerful error signal that might make the brain start questioning the whole environment. Other strange facial alterations kind of have the same "short circuit" effect, where you're kind of stuck in a loop you don't know how to get out of.

The difference is one schizo tricking/convincing many others (they may not be tricking them because they may sincerely believe it themselves) vs. one schizo coming up with their own personal absurd theories. If David Icke unironically became the new Christ a few hundred years ago, I guarantee there'd be tons of people preaching the lizard anti-gospel despite very few of them being mentally ill.

Beliefs do weird things to groups, and nature largely selects social species members based on group cohesion and mutual acceptance. Plus kids can be convinced of almost anything.

The same argument applies to Scientology. Insane theory and organization, yes, but most of the adherents are fairly normal people who just fell for the same kind of thing most people are capable of falling for.

So I'll one-up your "Christians are schizos" 2deep4u shit with the even more insufferable "humans are gullible and stupid". But better that than everyone being psychotic.
