Ever wondered what happens when you try to blow up a low-resolution image or a piece of AI-generated art? The result is often a blurry mess that fails to capture the intricate details of the original.

In fact, scaling up AI art can be even more challenging than traditional images, as the very process that created the artwork can limit its ability to adapt to different sizes.
