Emotions aren't all learned, a lot of it comes wired in us because that's how we relate to others as a species and as animals, in general.
Being angry, being happy, being sad, these are not things we learn. What we learn is how to control the emotions and when it is appropriate to express them.
There's mental disorders of people that don't feel emotions like normal people do, they don't get angry, happy or sad. So what we've learned about these people is that they can mimic the emotions by knowing when it is appropriate and expected to express them. But they don't feel them.
I think the LLMs are closer to psychopaths than to normal children learning the contextual expectations around their emotional responses.
