Anyone know how people quickly adapt in learning?

In AI, you have reinforcement learning where you find a value by
basically averaging the results of all iterations, all results weighed
equally. So if you touch 10 burners and don>t burn your hand and then
touch one and get a severe burn, the next time you see a burner you>ll
asume it>s safe. And that ain>t how humans work

For some reason i thought this was governed by the sum of experience
with extra weight given to recency and impact, but i can no longer
figure out where i came up with that idea and i can>t figure out the
proper search terms to use to make Google cough up some useful
information (i keep getting WM recency and primacy results which ain>t
the same thing)

Any one got any advice?

It appears to me that finding out something about it is exactly what he
is trying to do.

Just thought someone might want to find out how real animals and real
reinforcement works.

Just thought that someone might wonder about real animals and
