The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

It works well enough to be shown for a few seconds at a keynote for static pictures in some cases. It won't yet work well enough to be permanently known as the official "remastered version" for moving video consistently.
Now, someone uploading a watchable version on YouTube? That will happen in the next years if it hasn't already. But that version would be widely ridiculed if released officially because something, somewhere will be off and fans will notice.
Isn't that the real beauty of AI? We can go over the parts that fans flag as distracting or obviously wrong, and release a new version. This would have to be done on some streaming service so no physical copies until a finalised version everyone is happy with.
I guess it could be done as a Bandersnatch-style experiment on one streaming platform, but it's so far from the regular way things are done that it seems unlikely.
That's the nightmare of AI as far as I'm concerned. Endlessly revising movies and TV away from what was originally created by the filmmakers.
I don't understand why there are so many purists bashing the idea. To answer directly, it can be done and it can be done well enough, albeit you'd need a fair amount of GPU. There's a reason it's mostly used for still images. Also, don't expect scene to scene consistency. New hallways, etc, unless we get models that can account for that.
Also yes, you can upres stuff, even before all this image stuff. It's gotten pretty good, even for video-- usually benefits from some human touch ups though; it's used quite well on some video games. That's easier than out painting, but has trouble with text and finer designs that are harder to guess.
Plus, it's arguably easier with live action rather than animation although I'm not certain. Redoing an art style isn't always easier than just filling in scenes.
Honestly at the rate we're going we could probably even have AI generate whole episodes of stuff, but that's when we're really going to be treading dangerous waters.
Voyager 💛 I'm on last episode of season 6.
I have an old Panasonic plasma and I was always a bit worried when I watch Star Trek (right from TOS) that those black bars on the side of the screen will damage the panel.
But I don't care. It's Star Trek.
I have 3 old Panasonic plasmas, they are the greatest tv's ever. My wife wants an led smart tv, she will have to pry these tv's from my cold dead hands. They weigh so much she can't move them herself
I can totally understand that 😄
Tho mine is a pretty low-end plasma, the panel still looks amazingly gorgeous.
