AI model learns thousands of words from one child's audio — only with nightly replay, Science reports
jpillowtime · x · 2026-11-06
Princeton researchers report in Science that an AI model fed only what one child heard day-by-day during the first 3 years of life learned no words — but adding nightly replay, akin to sleep, let it learn thousands. The findings offer clues to how kids acquire language and how to train AI on far less data.
