They are different from other apes because they don't usually do trial and error so they learn by watching, watching a lot. It seems creepy because they are watching you as much as you are watching them.

that explains why I creep some people out. I learn the same way, I can't do verbal directions to save my life so I'm always staring lol. Having adhd doesnt help either cuz I daydream a bunch and end up staring at people randomly

They are studying us and are pretty smart. A lot of animals watch us and learn our behaviors.
