Summary: A recent study demonstrated that an AI model could learn to associate certain objects with their names using limited input from video recordings captured by a headcam worn by a child. This challenges the notion that humans have an innate ability for language acquisition, suggesting that AI can also learn language through fewer examples. The AI’s success in identifying objects like “car” and “crib” indicates that some aspects of language learning might not require innate understanding, opening new avenues for cognitive science research.
