Since the development of artificial intelligence (AI), we have seen the technology being used for a number of purposes. From traffic surveillance to analyzing human traits, AI is everywhere now. However, the technology has been used the most for face recognition and image enhancement purposes. So now, a team of researchers from the Duke University of North Carolina has created an AI algorithm that can create an HD image from a low-res, pixelated picture.

According to Alex Damian, with the use of this unusual method, even if the AI model gets a picture in which the eyes, nose and mouth are barely recognizable, their “algorithm still manages to do something with it, which is something that traditional approaches can’t do,”.
