That can explain they created a cross-eyed Arnold in the opening sequence, when in the original footage, there was only darkness in place of his eyes.
I've spent a lot of time screwing around with Topaz AI, with some pretty dramatic results but there's almost always things that you can spot, especially if you know what to look for. I have noticed, pretty consistently, that eyes are something that the AI seems to over accentuate. Eyes will often be shadowed in the source material (sometimes just one) but the AI will make them literally pop out with brightness and definition and give them an alien like look.
