I hope this is the start of more ML filters in ffmpeg. They added the sr (super resolution) filter years ago, but it's old and it's difficult to get the weights so you can run it, since they're not included. They have added support for multiple inference libraries like libtorch, but again, it's difficult to even get started. Hopefully they can get behind a consistent ML strategy, ideally with a "models" directory with ready to use models for upscaling, temporal upscaling, noise cancelling, etc. A lot of audio and video filter research use ML now, new codecs will probably also use it soon.
