Humans also memorize - what a cat is, what a dog is, a giraffe.

Sure, we can apply even higher level features, and we can generalize from a picture of a cat to a black&white or text description of it.

But we still memorize a lot.

Animals memorize too. But, humans generalize, and that's the secret to our success. That's why generalization is a big deal and not memorization.
