This AI hype cycle has dramatically distorted society's views of what's possible with image upscalers.

A judge in Washington state has blocked video evidence that’s been “AI-enhanced” from being submitted in a triple murder trial. And that’s a good thing, given the fact that too many people seem to think applying an AI filter can give them access to secret visual data.

    That’s not what I said.

    What I typed there is not my opinion.

    This the technical, industry distinction between AI and things like ML and Neural networks.

    “Mimicking living things” is obviously not exclusive to AI. It is exclusive to AI as compared to ML, for instance.

      There is no technical, industry specification for what AI is. It’s solely and completely a marketing term. The best thing I’ve heard is that you know it’s ML if the file extension is cpp or py, and you know it’s AI if the extension is pdf or ppt.

      I don’t see how “AI” is mimicking living things while neural networks are, just because neural networks are based on neurons, the living things in your head.
