Which wouldn't be no different to what other studios have started doing with David Fincher planning to using AI as part of his Se7en 4k remaster. But Fincher probably still had original footage to train the AI. I don't think Hasbro has that. I think this is gonna be an AI filter. And I'm scared.

-have to be the case since Power Rangers spliced US footage with JP footage and the JP footage was using different camera lens and film. I have to assume that what they mean by gen AI is really using restorative AI from VHS to upscale from 1080p to 4K without risk of degradation.
