		<description>The concept of &quot;uncanny valley&quot; where robots begin to resemble humans until a point where they are so close that it is well creepy and the curve dips indicating that familiarity with human beings is lost. 

first pic- rendering of the chick in final fantasy, where the uncanny valley syndrome is attributed to have alienated the audience because the rendering was so close hence making it a boz office failure 


second pic- arnold schwarzenegger as terminator was predicted to flop cause of the uncanny valley syndrome but didnt.

third pic- dunno.</description>

		<description>The Uncanny Valley hypothesis , as proposed by Masahiro Mori , has roboticists worried about the nature of emotional responses shown by humans during their  interactions with robots.
 
Datapoints are : Final Fantasy(CGI interaction), Arnie`s T2 - Terminator and
the Geminoid HI-1 robot modelled after Hiroshi Ishiguro

Another common thread is that they are all &quot;Actroids&quot; or artificial actors</description>
