They effectively do. They’re trained by brute forcing 100TB of training data through them, rather than any logical learning technique.
A human doesn’t need 100TB of books to learn the alphabet.

A human does need 16ish hours per day of audio/video content for several years to learn the alphabet.
I used a single letter stencil to learn the alphabet, actually, and nobody strapped me to a chair to watch or listen something 16h a day.
Living inside a normal home with my parents was enough for the audio part.
The 16 hours of audio/video per day was a reference to being alive and hearing/seeing things for years before you actually could learn the alphabet.
It was not meant as literally sitting at a screen with audio/video for 16 hours a day.
