This is an interesting connection. If I had to guess, the Chomskyist response would be to say, yes but this only applies to LLMs that have been pre-trained already (i.e. have structures in place needed to understand language in general). I think a Chomskyist would say that language learning is precisely like fine-tuning and not the pre-training of foundation models.
