Will upsampling of new DAC make lossy sound as good as Lossless

A question :

With most of new DAC’s using their upsampling make a lossy Spotify like file as good as a cd quality .

Most of the DAC’s I see move every file to a very high sampling rate and do a lot of behind the scene adjustments.

will this “ fill in the blanks “ for lost data and make it good as the original?

I was pretty dumbfounded as to which I liked better Give it a shot, granted, I’m an older geezer with probably less than optimal hearing In the past , MP3’s sounded like crap to me Shrill, edgy digital . Especially, on old rock not now I’ve eaten my words, on audio many times, over the years jeff
