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.
I used adobe’s Generative Fill tool (where it uses AI to fill in the blanks like adding more sky/backgrounds/hiding people) and it’s pretty miss. 20% of the time, it would kinda work. And I say that loosely.
I think in a few years, we’ll get there. But not today.
Is that for movies, images or what? Either way it’s interesting
