No it doesn't for one.
Maybe you need to research your word definitions better.
It is when you see what is not there. Like seeing a giraffe in a cloud shape. You don't have to want to see it (though that can most definitely help...), it is simply evolutionary conditioning of the brain.
It is better to see a predator that is not there than to not see one that is.
Why does this>

Look like a face to us? A computer would not recognize it as a face nor equate it as a face. It's because of pareidolia.
