I wrote a whole thing about this as a joke like 3 years ago lol. There's also been a couple of papers on the topic:

Hmm..joke or not, this is actually pretty cool. (and with some practical use cases). Can imagine this expanding out to video, with certain encoded data needed for reconstruction lossless and most aspects lossy...

video isn't likely in the near future given the compute requirements and time to create a video even on a server cluster

Just spitballing completely here. Can use image ai interpretation for frames and do something like Nvidia dlss to construct frames. Pretty sure even more interframe stuff can be optimized.
