I can: Star Trek DS9 (DVD rips). I actually had forgotten the Shield was supposed to be doing AI upscaling since a lot of what I watched for a while was current.

I was midway through the series when I traveled somewhere else and used a Roku on a different TV - and it was instantly noticeable. When I got home, I plugged in a Chromecast Google TV to my TV (LG OLED) and watched parts of an episode.

The Shield TV made DS9 look significantly better.

This happened to me with TNG! I was blown away by the picture quality. That's not something my wife usually notices, but even she commented about how good it looked. I later watched it on a different device and the quality was noticeably worse.

TNG did have a massive amount of time put into remastering it though, DS9 sadly has not.
