It's different from just stacking exposures, it's a paid app that does progressive animation of exposures for creative effect and says it's "AI-powered" whatever that means.

It's a paid app that I literally have, and all it does is take multiple photos and composite them together. It can either naïvely average them together in-place like a traditional long exposure, or align them using machine learning. I'm actually appalled they use the term "AI" considering who they are but that doesn't matter, it's ML. I don't use any of the animation crap, but the aligned long exposures can be useful for ultrawide takes since that camera is so noisy.
Edit: actually I can't seem to find the setting that aligns them. I seem to remember it being able to do that but maybe it doesn't... which would be disappointing...

I agree, and I built it!
The app launched in 2019. Ideally I would have said ML, but it felt like AI had more recognition among non-technical users.
If I launched it in 2026, it would 100% say "ML" not only because it's more technically accurate, but to make it abundantly clear it doesn't generate slop.
I have it too but after like 3 times I never used it again, felt like a cheap gimmick. I regret falling for hype. If anything they do good marketing
People are slapping "AI" on anything these days to try to sell more units of whatever it is.
