They don't say specifically that they use AI, although a little research praises the incredible vivid videos and speculates that they use advanced technologies.

The video was so sharp I thought they had to use AI to create something like that. No doubt there is considerable artistry also involved.

Wow yes great video! I didn't see the scene you're referring to where the top of the mountain was reconstructed but I gather there is at least one fresco showing the top of the mountain to be MUCH taller!
