This reminds me of the coastline paradox. I wonder if it applies to mapping an organism’s brain. For example, one can say they know the length of Scotland’s coastline but as the resolution increases, so does the coastline’s length. It’s infinite.
The resolution increases but the information doesn't. Apply some compression algorithm on the higher resolution coastline and you will find that you can reduce size massively. Same with LLMs and same with mapping the brain probably.
Why would the information not increase? If your unit is, say, 10 meters, you would only be able to see a straight line instead of curve.
