Funny that it does not need that much data to train your average 20th century human genius. I'd say that if we are dreaming of the future of ai, learning and reasoning seems the greatest issue, not data. That said, the article title is about LLMs, so that's what will need changing I guess.

Humans aren't just text interfaces though. The majority of your input is not textual but is sights, sounds, feelings, etc., that LLMs don't (yet?) have access to.

Humans receive an enormous amount of training data in forms not currently available to LLMs.

If you locked baby Einstein in a room with the collected works of humanity and left him there for a lifetime, I doubt he'd have even learnt to read on his own.

I remember listening to an AI researched in some interview over 20 years ago. He said that in his quest to create an AI, he realized at some point he could just have kids instead.
