Researchers have developed a new approach to training neural networks that better mimics human visual representation learning. Unlike standard networks trained on a single objective, this new method uses meta-learning to train across thousands of tasks, enabling the representations to adapt to new concepts with few observations. The meta-learned representations show improved alignment with human similarity judgments, semantic rule learning, and activity in the high-level visual cortex, suggesting that the human brain's flexibility stems from the need to learn new semantic relationships rapidly.
