The very bad news is, Nvidia says turning DLSS 5 on will currently reduce performance by 50-60%. And that's across the board—no matter the game.

So traumatised by AI ads on YouTube that I think this post is a tai chi ad.

    i miss when GPUs just rendered the game, and that was all.

    None of this upscaling, AI graphics altering bullshit that is there ultimately to distract from the impotent promises of 4k gaming, which is unnecessarily ridiculous to begin with.

    I don’t care about or want this technology

    Not gonna lie, I'd try this in the same way I've tried AI for 5 minutes like a morbid curiosity thing. I'm also gonna admit that I can see it working with a very specific category of games, if it didn't have a performance impact. Those games being the kind of games I have absolutely no interest in; sports games. I can see it for porn games too but I've not played more than a few and didn't really see the appeal, but I can imagine it'd be a cool thing for some people.
    None of that has any effect on this being a purely bad thing though, I'd rather stop using technology completely than being forced to use AI in any way.

    I bet someone is already working on using this new technology to project arbitrary celebrities into porn games.

    For fucks sakes, I don't want "realistic" graphics, I want high and smooth FPS, they have been calling their games "realistic" for the past 20 years. Just make the game with a unique art style and optimise it.

    Every single "realistic graphics" game looks shit after 5 years while Mario is over here still looking great decades after release.

    When will they realize that good graphics does not equal a good game?

    Saw a Fallout 4 mod that would do this and immediately imagined my PC on fire.
