Babies may seem helpless, but their brains are incredible learning machines. They can hear sounds from any language, recognize faces adults can't, and build millions of neural connections every second
A baby brain is not better or worse than an adult brain. It is optimized for exploration and rapid learning, while an adult brain is optimized for efficiency, judgment, and integration of experience. Comparing them without specifying the goal is like asking whether roots are better than leaves.
As a baby, you had no knowledge, no experience. Full learn mode activated.
Now you're older, hopefully you have more knowledge and experience so learning rapidly is hopefully less necessary.
