Good on you to drop in Ivo so we can hear it directly from the horse's mouth.

Well that illustrate my initial concerns in a big way.
If a neural network can interpolate a jelly fish wideshot into a dog's painting I don't even want to think what it's doing to an astro image. Maybe the lower more subtle setting gives you cats?

This is one of the reasons why something "advanced" like PixInsight only offers something simple like VNG - precisely because it doesn't do anything fancy.

What's your take on bayer drizzle and drizzle integration. That's ok? Been doing it a lot of that with the FSQ and as far as I can tell it doesn't manufacture details but I thought I'd check with you anyway.
