@CursedSilicon it's complicated... it's not identical to what we think of as "generative AI" or LLMs but is parceled with many of the same problems and IS, in some ways, generative. Either way I'm comfortable hating on it because it's lossy and hallucinatory so when I upscale something I'm getting things that aren't there as well as enhancing things that are. But sometimes it's the cleanest thing we have available :(

@CursedSilicon I know that the Steam rerelease of a beloved PS1 game from my childhood (Tail of the Sun) used AI upscaling on a lot of the textures because the original working files no longer exist even with the same studio. I'm unsure as to whether to let it sour me on the whole thing and am comfortable having complex feelings on it, but I would never use it in my own projects
