Show me a human that can win a Starcraft championship after only playing ten games. If you find any, they learned the mechanics and strategy somewhere else. That’s transfer learning, appears to be in its infancy in the ML community but making progress.

The scale matters here. I think a better metric for your parent comment would be the delta in skill per game played.

A human is significantly better on game 11 than game 1 (I recently got into Starcraft). Current ML systems are not. It's up for discussion how to take the human's previous experience into account, but the total amount of experience is significantly less that the computer's.
