The insight that what we can know depends critically on the models we use to know. Our concepts are models. Our [languages] are models. Our theories are models. We never access reality raw—we access reality filtered through models, and different models reveal different aspects. This isn't idealism (reality exists) but dependency: what we can claim to know is always mediated by the models we've built. [Epistemic] progress is partly about building better models, but also about [understanding] what each model hides along with what it reveals.
