Does anyone who knows more neuroscience and anatomy than me know if there are any features of the actual process of humans learning to use their appendages (e.g. an infant learning to curl / uncurl their fingers) that correspond to the example of the robot learning to use its actuator?
Like, if we assume certain patterns of nerve impulses represent different probabilities, can we regard human hands as “friendly actuators”, and the motor cortex as learning the fix points (presumably mostly during infancy)?
Neat!

That would be really cool.
