Taking 11Mbps [1] as the raw uncompressed incoming data, and assuming 16 hours of waking environment consumption on average (likely high for children), a 13yo has taken in less than 400 TB of information (I used 11 * 60 * 60 * 16 * 365 * 13 / 8.) That's... surprisingly low.

Are we still limiting to visual cues and not the auditory,smell,taste,touch data which we get exposed to?

Visual input is so dense it's basically not worth tracking the other senses from a data rate pov.
