Tangential thought: In the early 90s there was cutting edge image compression method called Iterated Fractal System (IFS) that was kind of like what you are talking about but for 2D. It achieved impressive image compression and since compression is kind of the inverse of generation by code, I wonder if someone has thought to combine IFS with Gaussian splats, for instance, to draw 3D scenes. A scene would be represented by trees of splats and scaled copies of trees of splats so the code would "grow" the scene predicted by LLM data from a large database of scenes.
