Is anyone using this sort of idea on upscaling videos?

  AI upscaling? Yes. Seems like some fans used AI upscaling for the older Star Gate SG-1 seasons, since these were direct-to-VHS and hence shot on low quality media (by now there are official bluray releases which are also somehow upscaled, but I was told those would be of inferior quality compared to the fan effort). Not sure if those efforts worked on a frame-by-frame basis or used information across frames.

    And to think we all laughed at CSI enhancing CCTV images...

      Luckily we can track the amount of lawsuits filled against Ryan Gosling to see if the police started to submit AI up scaled images as evidence. https://petapixel.com/2020/08/17/gigapixel-ai-accidentally-added-ryan-goslings-face-to-this-photo/ https://petapixel.com/2020/08/17/gigapixel-ai-accidentally-a...

    The remastered edition of Command and Conquer also used AI up scaling for the cut scenes. They lost the original recordings and the videos from the PlayStation release were the best they could track down. The result is far from perfect but probably the best one could hope for https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikJLYYTrIxs&t=689s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikJLYYTrIxs&t=689s. I previously replied to the wrong comment on accident.
