This was my view, that one requires an amygdala to get pissed off. If an LLM or Neural Net hallucinates because they have been hanging around human software engineers too damn long, this would explain the "emotiin." Imitation.

I think you miss my point. A super smart AI has no motive to do anything unless it has emotion. Evolved beings must inherently have a motive to reproduce. AI's have no such necessity.

I've said it before I'll say it again, emotion is easy but intelligence is hard. Evolution certainly found that to be the case. Even a crocodile can display anger and fear in the fight or flight response, the same could be said about insects. Hell, even bacteria are attracted to some things and repelled by others; but in the entire 3.5 billion year history of life, random mutation and natural selection managed to produce something that can display the sort of intelligence required to make a radio telescope once, just once, and that was only a few hundred thousand years ago.
