The document discusses how different brain modules can produce conflicting responses and feelings of uncanniness. It suggests that recognizing faces or biological motions that seem familiar but are realized to be non-living can activate discomfort by reminding us of death and decay. This response may lead people to strongly condemn human-like machines due to feelings of unease from losing interpretive control over their emotional reactions. Exposure over time could help remedy negative perceptions if paired with the machines helping people.

What happened to his face? What is going on with the Pope?
