I believe is going to come from robot vision. Meaning, a robot with cameras is going to explore the world, finding interesting things, being curious, looking at things in different angles, and in different lighting conditions.

Looking and interacting with paint, pigments and materials.

And this will not be one robot’s experience, but an army of hundreds experiencing the world simultaneously.

Basically, speedrun the process that humans took 5000 years, it will do in one.
