If I can respond to Wittgenstein here:
> he compares this limitation to the way that an eye necessarily can't see itself
On the contrary, language is both perception and action. And it is also a self replicator: language -> model or brain -> language. I think that's why LLMs are so great - they rely on this medium that is both receptive and emissive, unlike other modalities.
