Files in Category:AI-upscaled paintings

[edit]

AI-upscaled paintings, where software has been given a low resolution painting and provided its best guess about how the artist might have painted someone's hair or mouth, whether the paper held by Pope Pius should show legible words or just scribbles when zoomed in, whether Bussy d'Amboise would look better if his portrait had photographically realistic eyes, etc. Out of COM:SCOPE as misleading, these paintings do not look like this.

The uploader has now reverted File:Portrait de Bussy d'Amboise, collection du château de Beauregard.jpg to its un-upscaled version. --Belbury (talk) 08:56, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  •  Comment. Looking at File:Clemente Alberi – Ritratto di papa Pio VIII (c. 1830).jpg, for example, the original image that depicts the artist's original work has been universally replaced across >100 Wikimedia project by this AI-generated version. I'm extremely concerned about this practice which replaces original works of art with depictions that contain details not present in the original. This is deceptive and contrary to the goals of Wikimedia. There may be some use cases (where these images can be used in discussions of AI upscaling, for example), so maybe outright deletion of all of them isn't appropriate. But the use of these images where they are presented as if they were the artists' original works should be globally reversed. Marbletan (talk) 13:55, 27 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    the artist's original work has been universally replaced across >100 Wikimedia project Note that a lot of wiki projects transclude the image in the infobox from the corresponding Wikidata entry. So, all it might take to replace the original work across 100 wiki projects is to make one single edit to the Wikidata entry. Nakonana (talk) 19:57, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
