yes i do and im surprised you don't. A, piracy: the same upscalers were trained on the same pirated art and photographs as the generators. B, accuracy: the models don't work well if they need to upscale something that isn't a conventionally attractive white person. C, waste: litres of water get dumped into the analyser and kilos of carbon are output to upscale a single image.
D, ease of re-use: when you get even the appearance of results, it makes it easier to call on generative AI for other things, such as drawing, writing, or even information recall that you would otherwise use your brain for.
deleted my comment to re-write it, but no need since you already responded. I thought upscaling was just filling in pixels to stretch an image, i didnt think it would alter the image. I don't care how the AI is trained, I care what its used for and how accurately. I will look into it and will remove it later if it seems unethical like you say

looked into it and it has been removed, thanks for flagging that
