That's fascinating. Do you have any further reading that talks about the studies??

In regards to the monkey study, I believe it was prior to ~6 months old, when habituated to the image of a monkey, babies still showed increase response as they would to a novel stimulus when shown a slightly different monkey of the same species, whereas older infants showed no increased response. Sadly, I can't provide any readings, as I'm just spouting off the things I've learned in university so far.

That's really interesting. Babies are organic processors overclocking shit until they chill tf out after they're "unboxed" (born). Biology is fascinating. Appreciate the knowledge!
