This system tested AI-based image interpolation to synthesize new video frames between existing ones, with the goal of smoothing motion in film content. It was developed and tested by the National Film Board of Canada during a development phase but was never used in production. The system affected internal GC employees only and has since been retired.

This disclosure was drafted with AI assistance.
