This is a pointlessly religious dimissal of the comment you're replying to. Yes, there's a counterfactual to the comment but this sort of mysticism is ridiculous.
The ability to recursively identify structural patterns is intelligent behavior and theorized to play a crucial component in consciousness known as predictive coding
Our brains are theorized to work like this using some form of hierarchical latent structure, and learning via prediction errors.
Sounds a lot like model building and LLMs, yes?
It's some true tragic comedy that you think this is religious mysticism instead of stopping and wondering if you might not be lacking some knowledge foundation. You really couldn't have proven my point better.
