"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

I’ve watched most of DS9 upscaled. And it was an improvement for sure. I never noticed anything strange like these examples.
But I also don’t think the upscaling/cleanup was this aggressive.
AI upscale generally gives a perceived improved fidelity at a loss of some finer detail and grain. It is a trade off and it is almost never a objective improvement
Yeah, I don't know what they did, how or from what source material.
You can get less artifacty AI upscaling in real time on a mid-size PC these days.
I was similarly thinking of the Voyager upscale I have that's actually quite good!
