Like really dumb infants maybe.
Most kids are able to correctly identify thing in their environment by age 1-ish since they're using words to describe those things around that age. Specially trained AIs are about at that level. Based on the difficulty of captcha tasks I think it's safe to say 1yo could identify cars, signs and store fronts about as well as Google's AI (were it actually in the situation, the 1yo probably couldn't conceptualize that some of the pictures in a grid of them on-screen represent cars or whatever). That's the level we're at and that's with AI that's specially trained to recognize those things.
