  Paredolia just means seeing patterns that aren’t there, it’s not implicitly human. If you see a dog in the clouds, that’s paredolia.

    Great, when did I say otherwise? Pareidolia is a thing humans do, because we like patterns. Finding patterns is something that has benefited our species, but it is sometimes so strong that we see faces in electrical outlets or the shape of a car’s front profile (for example).

      I mean, it doesn’t really follow given the context. Nobody is talking about the visual sense, they’re talking about humanizing AI, which isn’t paredolia.
