Yes, but we do not call a couch in a leopard print a leopard. Because we understand that the print is secondary to the function.

Hah. My toddler gladly calls her former walking aid toy a "lawn mower". Random toys become pie and cakes she brings to us to eat.

I'm not sure it's as simple as you say. The first time my very young son saw a horse, he made the ASL sign for 'dog'.

He had only ever seen cats and dogs in his life previous to that.

Did he require 9,999 more examples of horses before learning the difference?

In another comment I replied that 3D high fidelity images do end up being thousands of training samples, so the answer is yes.

But we have a lot more sensory input and context to verify all of that.

If you kept training LLMs with all that data, it would be interesting to see what the results would be.
