[CG] Can AI learn like a baby?

In the copy of Section 7 from my recent article, I compared human methods of learning and reasoning and theories by Peirce to recent developments by ChatGPT and LLMs. Research shows that human learning methods at the level of a baby are superior to the best methods of LLMs. John ____________________ This baby with a head camera helped teach AI how kids learn language Human babies are far better at learning than even the very best large language models. To be able to write in passable English, ChatGPT had to be trained on massive data sets that contain millions upon millions of words. Children, on the other hand, have access to only a tiny fraction of that data, yet by age three they’re communicating in quite sophisticated ways. A team of researchers at New York University wondered if AI could learn like a baby. What could an AI model do when given a far smaller data set—the sights and sounds experienced by a single child learning to talk? A lot, it turns out. This work, published in Science, not only provides insights into how babies learn but could also lead to better AI models.
