Useful models that allow us to make predictions.

The models are just an approximation to the truth. The truth is objective reality itself.

Objective reality doesn't allow us to make predictions itself, it is an nonce. Unfortunately we don't have a time reversing machine to run entropy in reverse and see the thermodynamic truth. All we have is models, your consciousness being one of them.
