You may be right that this isn't surprising, but the current situation still seems very worrisome. Suppose you're a judge presiding over the trial over a violent criminal. The defense lawyer says: "Your honor, the evidence is irrefutable -- my client is guilty. However, my client grew up in a violent neighborhood. Violence is all he's known for his entire life. He's just regurgitating what he was trained on." As the judge, do you find this defense persuasive? Does the "regurgitating what he was trained on" defense allow you to conclude that this person is not a danger to society?
