How about fractal rulers?
Example: you can never know the length of the circumference of the UK. If the ruler is 1 k long, the coastline is x. If the ruler is 1 m long, the coastline is y. If the ruler is 1 cm long, the coastline is z.
Different answers depending on context: the length of the unit of measurement. LLM's too often strip context from data; a flaw.

@Npars01@mstdn.social @danlyke@researchbuzz.masto.host without reading, let's see if I can remember this... something dimension... Hausdorff or similar. Did I get it right?
