Using algorithms to take multiple pictures and stack them together is fine. The information is real, exists, and objective. People in the background won't (for example) suddenly be facing the other way because of the algorithm.
The problem is that AI isn't just interpolating data. It is wholesale adding extra data that simply doesn't exist. The person in the background is facing left, but the sensor couldn't possibly have captured that detail even after multiple images--it was a coin flip that the AI made.
The issue is that, like privacy, most people won't care ... until they do. By that time, it will be too late.

Someone here included an example where it does do something like this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35109568
