The thing that didn't really make sense to me or at least is super confusing with this is, that some people have multiple paintings that are somehow linked. They can move between these paintings and can never be in two paintings at the same time. The people in the paintings in Hogwarts can just casually walk between all the different paintings in the castle, not just the ones they are in, so these are all linked together, but if any of these paintings would be linked to one outside the castle it's not clear if any person from any painting can just move to that painting outside the castle or just the one who the painting originally depicted. The images on the chocolate frog cards are apparently also linked, but the moving photos in the newspaper aren't.

Continuing on LLMs, think of it as having different servers or no internet connection.

The paintings in Hogwarts are all connected through the school itself. The frog cards are like Nintendo's handhelds. And the newspaper pictures aren't connected to each other at all because they're meant for immediate shock value and are disposable.
