It's a fundamental epistemic paradox even without ML. ML might exacerbate, accelerate, or perturb it, but at it's core it's variation on the Münchhausen trilemma that's invariant with respect to subjectivity or embodiment.
Make no mistake, even science isn't immune. We've hoisted ourselves into a conceptual maxima, but we have no idea if it's a dead end or not.
