I’ve watched most of DS9 upscaled. And it was an improvement for sure. I never noticed anything strange like these examples.

But I also don’t think the upscaling/cleanup was this aggressive.

AI upscale generally gives a perceived improved fidelity at a loss of some finer detail and grain. It is a trade off and it is almost never a objective improvement

Yeah, I don't know what they did, how or from what source material.

You can get less artifacty AI upscaling in real time on a mid-size PC these days.

I was similarly thinking of the Voyager upscale I have that's actually quite good!
