Traditional photo upscaling methods involve adding pixels by averaging surrounding ones, with techniques like nearest-neighbor for pixel art and bicubic for general photos. AI upscaling, however, uses predictive models trained on vast datasets to generate new pixels, often resulting in cleaner, more saturated images. While AI can fill gaps and remove artifacts like grain, it may introduce inaccuracies by hallucinating details not present in the original source, making it less suitable for images where fidelity is critical.
