If the model intermediates every action you take then it sets the ceiling of what can be done.

Can you connect the dots or do you have to wait for the model to?

Does the model set the ceiling for what you can do… or the floor?

You need a pace layer outside the model to accumulate intermediate insights.

Those intermediate insights can be fed back into the model in future iterations as context to reach further.

Those intermediate representations require curation by a human, otherwise they spiral out of control and decohere from reality as the LLM throws itself into a cycle of slop.
