Court Bans Use of 'AI-Enhanced' Video Evidence Because That's Not How AI Works - eviltoast
This AI hype cycle has dramatically distorted society's views of what's possible with image upscalers.

    There’s a specific type of digital zoom which captures multiple frames and takes advantage of motion between frames (plus inertial sensor movement data) to interpolate to get higher detail. This is rather limited because you need a lot of sharp successive frames just to get a solid 2-3x resolution with minimal extra noise.
