There’s loads of hi-res ultra HD 4k porn available.

It’s still gonna have compression artifacts. Like, the point of lossy compression having psychoacoustic and psychovisual models is to degrade the stuff as far as you can without it being noticeable. That doesn’t impact you if you’re viewing the content without transformation, but it does become a factor if you don’t. Like, you’re viewing something in a reduced colorspace with blocks and color shifts and stuff.

I can go dig up a couple of diffusion models finetuned off SDXL that generate images with visible JPEG artifacts, because they were trained on a corpus that included a lot of said material and didn’t have some kind of preprocessing to deal with it.

I’m not saying that it’s technically-impossible to build something that can learn to process and compensate for all that. I (unsuccessfully) spent some time, about 20 years back, on a personal project to add neural net postprocessing to reduce visibility of lossy compression artifacts, which is one part of how one might mitigate that. Just that it adds complexity to the problem to be solved.
