Google’s YouTube will use artificial intelligence to improve the visual clarity of many low-resolution videos on its platform when viewed on TV screens, the web and mobile devices. 

YouTube will first implement the feature, known as upscaling, for videos that were originally uploaded at resolutions under 1080p, according to a blog post Oct 29 by senior product director Kurt Wilms. The company will support upscaling to even higher 4K quality "in the near future,” he added. A Google spokesperson confirmed the launch of upscaling will also include videos shown on YouTube’s web and mobile interfaces.
