“…Time is also ripe for such efforts, as recent advances in machine learning enable the exploration of this path toward more comprehensive approaches attempting to learn at multiple levels with constraints and mechanisms plausible also for human learners (e.g., Nguyen et al, 2021;Alishahi et al, 2021). Importantly, the use of modern machine learning for modeling allows testing of these models on data of unprecedented scale and naturalness (e.g., out-of-lab long-form audio recordings or head-mounted camera data captured from infants living their daily lives; Lavechin, de Seyssel, Gautheron, Dupoux, & Cristia, 2022;Sullivan, Mei, Perfors, Wojcik, & Frank, 2021), allowing us to tackle an array of research questions related to language input and learning mechanisms that cannot be easily addressed with more simplistic data.…”
