AI upscale does not improve quality imo, I'd much prefer to watch grainy vhs originals to AI upscaled ones that insert weird shapes in the image.

This is especially bad in animation, where the art gets visibly distorted.

There are people out there who can vote and can (sometimes) buy and drink alcohol and who never used VHS in any capacity.

And a new generation what is trained on a constantly enabled face filters and 'AI'-upscaled slop is already here.
