is the same reason the purple-faced Titan in Infinity War recognized Tony: they are both, as Thanos explains in the movie, "cursed with knowledge."

This causes Tony and Thanos to have a "kind of existential bond," according to the director Russo.

While Tony spent years improving his armor to the "cutting edge of what his intellect can give" and keeping a careful watch on what laid ahead

Thanos did the same in order to come up with a plan to exterminate half of the universe's inhabitants in order to make room for a "better" future.
