The biggest about this is not being able to 'compress' images to 25%, but that you can now take (some) images that we're previously only low-res, and upscale them!

One day we'll be pointing at pictures yelling "Enhance!", and not in jest!

Good idea for a dystopian CSI. "This AI invented image detail shows you are guilty"

Well then it means statistically there's a good chance that what produced the end low res image is incriminating. And of course I'm not serious.

Although on a serious note, does anyone know if and how statistical probability is accepted as evidence in a court of law?

Yeah, it is, that's called circumstantial evidence. You do need direct evidence to validate the circumstantial evidence though..

New episode of Black Mirror or maybe some comedy sketch.
