The information required to decode the data encoded on the glass is encoded on the glass. The AI/ML is apparently a testing mode, to ensure that someone who knows nothing about what is on the glass is able to extract video of the Superman movie from it. If the bootstrap section is good enough, the naive, untrained, know-nothing AI should be able to decode the movie. If it isn't good enough, the AI cranks for a long time and then puts Superman in a purple, orange, and green costume, and won't even know that those are all villain colors.
