So i thought of this at 2 am so bear with me (uncany valley theory)

So i was on tiktok and on the phone with my friend when i saw this video explainning why we have uncanny valley and uncanny valley for those who dont know is where we get an uneasy creepy feeling from things that look human but are not theres something off about them and the videos theory was maybe there use to be creatures that looked like us and could shape shift otherwise why would we have that defense reaction? but im gonna add to the theory

so in my mind i think thats a pretty advanced creature so im convinced yes there use to be a being that could shape shift because look at animals that blend in with nature its a survival mechanism and not uncommon
so my theory is i feel like something that advanced with so much potential would just die off no
i think they slipped through the cracks and ik im gonna sound crazy but they could be anyone living with us or around us idk i was tired and i was even thinking if someone was this being that can shape shift how would they even know? any thoughts?

i agree that this creature couldn't have died off. it could be living among us right now and we wouldn't know. thispersondoesnotexist.com says this: "It is almost impossible to recognise an image of a fake person. AI is so developed that 90% of fakes are not recognized by an ordinary person and 50% are not recognized by an experienced photographer. There are no services for recognition. Occasionally, a neural network makes mistakes, which is why artifacts appear: an incorrectly bent pattern, a strange hair color, and so on.


The only thing you need to do is take a closer look: humans’ visual processing systems are far stronger than computers’, so it is possible to recognise forgery by detection."

Exactly! So I think uncanny valley is the only response we have to distinct if somethings human or not it would make sense if we still have it for a reason
