.. and it's so far away from Plato's concept of an ideal reality.. (two worlds away ?)
- that shared statistical model of reality is disconnected from physical and from abstract worlds (Popper's* world 1 and 3 platonic) and reflects (so far hallucinations are not alive) Popper's ‘world 2’ only - of subjective experiences - reduced to shared weights and vectors.

Simply it's not possible to get ideal model from distorting mirrors - only a shallow shadow (no meanings, just chains) model of shadow reality captured (no translation to abstract) by language (only things for which we have names)..
The sanity is in what the one source of truth is - not like people could be a shadows of some ideal model being a reality statistical (however people actions are mostly results of using models of situation, reality.. and making them ad hoc) - and such belief in ideal reality model they wish they could have.. may lead to destining some hallucination to take over subjectives or their reasons..
Looking for Putnam vs Popper, found this: According to Hilary Putnam, who first championed metaphysical realism and later challenged it, metaphysical realism involves adopting a so-called “God’s point of view.” https://www.telework.ro/en/contemporary-realism-karl-popper-...
AI and “God’s point of view” ?! - what can go right ?
Specifically about how AI might be able to “understand” even without the ability to feel or have qualia.
