A human child receives images on the retina at 20fps, say ... for 12 hours a day, for many years. That is a lot of training, a lot of images received by the brain.
What the kid does when we show it something new is to do a kind of fine-tuning of its neural net where previous visual experience is reused in order to quickly learn new types of objects. It's called one shot learning and it can be done in neural nets too.
