The Pixelmator blog:
It’s no secret that we’re pretty big fans of machine learning and we love thinking of new and exciting ways to use it in Pixelmator Pro. Our latest ML-powered feature is called ML Super Resolution, released in today’s update, and it makes it possible to increase the resolution of images while keeping them stunningly sharp and detailed. Yes, zooming and enhancing images like they do in all those cheesy police dramas is now a reality!
First, these results are incredibly impressive. I’ve tried it on a few small images and their samples accurately reflect how good this is. There’s a film-like quality to the results that I find visually pleasing beyond the interpolated increase in resolution. Really hard to believe how good these results are.
Second, there is nothing cheesy about Blade Runner.
