I’m not sure that’s true. We have literal billions of years of training.

Human "pre-training" is vastly underappreciated.

Hell, animals are an even better example. Many animals pop out of the womb and start walking and eating and acting just like an adult!

If you wanna get philosophical then the decades of research that humans did is also AI "pre-training". And all of that is built on knowledge that humans have spent our whole existence amassing so maybe all of human "pre-training" is also AI pre-training.

A fun but silly exercise.
