Doesn't look like AI upscaling to me. Looks like something more akin to 2xsai or hq4x or something like that. Common algorithms to upscale pixel art that predate current AI systems.

What's going on is that there's a massive AI bubble caused by the AI companies promising, but not actually, investing into each other: which is buoying the stock prices of all of them.
