> anything humans can do is described using language
But this just isn't true. Humans can't learn how to drive a car or perform surgery solely by reading a book. Language is at best a rough approximation of the real world, and the saying "an image is worth a thousand words" exists for a reason. There simply aren't words for everything, and words do not have unambiguous meaning.
LLMs are rapidly running into some fundamental issues, and it is not at all clear how those are going to be solved - or if it is even possible at all. Even the tech giant are having serious trouble coming up with decent prompts, and hallucinations are really throwing a wrench in the works of any serious application.
As it turns out, being able to communicate doesn't mean you are automatically able to say something sensible.
