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.
Not sure if this goes here or the “Capitalist Dystopia” thread…but Steve Burke over at Gamers Nexus made a video on their consumer advocacy second channel explaining the nature and dangers of the current “circle jerk” nature of the AI industry.
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.
Nah, it's too smeary to be either of those; those retain solid blocks of color and turn jaggies into 45 degree bends. Think custom designs in Animal Crossing New Horizons. This definitely looks like AI or, at best, whatever they used for texture upscaling in BioShock 2 Remastered.
Update: the Prime Minister of Albania has announced that the AI minister is pregnant.Absolutely no way this can can go right.
Albania appoints AI bot ‘minister’ to fight corruption in world first
Sceptics wonder whether ‘Diella’, depicted as a woman in traditional folk costume, will herself be ‘corrupted’.www.aljazeera.com
(He means they're going to create a bunch of AI assistants for the human ministers, but that has to be the oddest way to announce it.)
Given the current state of politics almost everywhere...how can you even tell a difference?
I was going to make a crack about spewing barely-intelligible gibberish interspersed with terrible advice and poorly done hands, but then I remembered I'm in the US.
