Where does AI come into the picture here?

It seems that the image which we got after so much of collaboration can only tell us so much due to its blurriness and size. It was created by a combination of 8 telescopes across the globe. As the earth rotated they helped fill in the image parts and built this. You can imagine it as something like in the below illustration in the center.
