> Yeah I've been thinking along these lines. ChatGPT is telling us something about language or thought, we just havent got to the bottom of what it is yet. Something along the lines of 'with enough data its easier to model than we expected'.

I’ve been thinking similarly, and am coming to understand and accept we’ll never get to the bottom of it :)

The universe is fractal-like in nature. It shouldn’t be a surprise, then, that if “we” have created an intelligence which exists as a subset of “us”, a self-similar process is ultimately responsible for granting us our own intelligence.
