Something that occurs to me is that Humans are a lot more "pretrained" than we think. And almost all of the heavy lifting comes from evolutionary learning. So it makes more sense to compare children learning to fine tuning, not pre training.
- anotheryou 4y agoThat's a super interesting thought, thanks! There is quite few animals that can do a lot instinctively, right? Like a turtle hatching finds water, swims, eats. Also reminds me of the experiment with rats that genetically transferred fear for a specific smell.
