1. Children are not tabulae rasae, they have previous optimization of their brains via evolution such that they are much more predisposed to visual and other human tasks than computers. On the other hand, computers are tabulae rasae such that they are essentially blind and have no optimization until you train them.
2. Children see many more data points than computers, thousands of hours of lived experience from which they can learn, of not just the visual world but the auditory and other sensory worlds.
Essentially, you are comparing something that is ~80% trained and then training it on billions of data points to something that is 0% trained and then training it on still images of only two dimensions and asking why the former is much better.
