Yes, but game engines also hold the entire world inside themselves. There’s no guessing, no estimating, no making sure that what it’s looking at is actually a human or a bush - it already knows that.
The problem with computer vision being lazy is that it can’t ignore something without understanding what it’s looking at, and it can’t understand what it’s looking at without analyzing the data. It’s a circular problem, and will be ridiculously hard to solve - the crux of the issue is that we as people are analyzing that same data, we just don’t realize it.
Humans are bad at it, too. If you’ve ever ridden a bike or motorcycle, you quickly learn that car and truck drivers simply aren’t looking for 2 wheelers. And therefore they don’t see them. (I think this reinforces your point).
They are, but we’ve mostly got our subconscious doing it still, it’s not that we’re always doing big tasks we just have dedicated processes for it, so maybe that’s one way to tackle the problem, specialised processes for sorting data types that engages the main process to do the processing of said data.
Don’t many game engines kinda sorta do this?

Analyzing lazily by defalt and only take a closer look at the interesting bits, like the brain does with optical?
