Agreed. They aren't converging on a statistical model of reality, they are converging on a statistical model of their training data. In the case of LLMs and the size of the training data it's possible they are also converging on some commonality between all text. I doubt this reveals a core truth but maybe it will give us some insight into what we all agree certain chunks of text represent (when I use this idiom, everyone understand I mean this).
