I’ve been re-watching star trek voyager recently, and I’ve heard when filming, they didn’t clear the wide angle of filming equipment, so it’s not as simple as just going back to the original film. With the advancement of AI, is it only a matter of time until older programs like this are released with more updated formats?

And if yes, do you think AI could also upgrade to 4K. So theoretically you could change a SD 4:3 program and make it 4k 16:9.

I’d imagine it would be easier for the early episodes of Futurama for example due to it being a cartoon and therefore less detailed.

    Holy cow that is beyond impressive. Sure enough, sometimes it does hallucinate a bit, but it’s already quite wild. Can’t help but wonder where we’ll be in the next 5-10 years.

      Eh, doing this on cherrypicked stationary scenes and then cherrypicking the results isn’t that impressive. I’ll be REALLY impressed when AI can extrapolate someone walking into frame.
