/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.
Fun will now commence.

AI upscaling does a really good job with things recorded on video tape. I've been very impressed lately.
Obviously, the AI is putting data that wasn't originally there into the image, but the approximation is good enough that you pretty much don't notice.
Check out, if you can, what Peter Jackson did with WWI footage for the documentary he made. It's really amazing. Not video tape, but a similar missing data and low quality problem.
I watched that WW1 documentary.
Honestly, I liked that they slowed down the footage (and still don't understand why that's not always done when playing old video recorded with a lower frame rate), but the upscaling still looked fake and artificial. I'd rather have film grain out the Wazoo than that.
In this particular case, we're talking about CG special effects footage being the only thing that needs to be upscaled. It's artificial to begin with.
