Re:Adobe Photoshop's 'super resolution' made my jaw hit the ... by dorkwood on Saturday March 13, 2021 @04:06PM (#26449986)
An example I saw getting traction on Twitter a few months ago was a photo of Melania Trump that was purported to be a body double. Since the original image was blurry, someone used an AI upscaler to "enhance" the photograph and increase the resolution. Then the comments started to roll in: the teeth are different! The tip of her nose doesn't match! It's not her!

Technically, they were correct -- it wasn't her. It was an algorithm's best-guess reconstruction based on training data of other people's faces. Unfortunately, neither the original poster or anyone else in the thread seemed to grasp this concept.
