  Appreciate your excitement and analysis of the new DLSS 5 lighting here.  This is a very early look, and our art teams will be further adjusting the lighting and final effect to look the way we think works best for each game.  This will all be under our artists' control, and tota…

  Announcing NVIDIA DLSS 5, an AI-powered breakthrough in visual fidelity for games, coming this fall. DLSS 5 infuses pixels with photorealistic lighting and materials, bridging the gap between rendering and reality. Learn More → https://www.nvidia.com/... [video]

  @NVIDIAGeForce This looks horrifically bad, nobody wants an AI slop filter on top of their games

• @thethiny @thethiny on x

  @NVIDIAGeForce Like what's the point? Artists spend hours perfecting a model for you to come and replace it with AI Faces? I seriously hate this so much.

  I Just Saw DLSS 5 Running Across Multiple Games. It's Not a Face Filter.

  Why is Ubisoft making DLSS 5 memes now, weren't they one of the first game studios to participate in this whole mess? [image]

• @georgecrudo George Crudo on x

  Something that's worth highlighting about the DLSS 5 fiasco....this was NVIDIAs tech demo. This is them displaying the product in the most favorable way where they have all the power to make it look as good as possible and curate the result. And it STILL looks this bad.

  Are we supposed to actually believe DLSS 5 gives developers control to maintain a game's “unique aesthetic” when the examples they show completely change the artistic style of some characters? “Ah yes, this completely different looking person is what I wanted all along!”

• @_beezul @_beezul on x

  At a certain point, it stops becoming a visual improvement and starts becoming a misrepresentation of someone's intent and vision. I think we just saw nvidia cross the line. I can see studios banning this as it misrepresents thier IP and makes their games look like the same

• @hardwareunboxed @hardwareunboxed on x

  “The AI model powering DLSS 5 is a single unified model. Same model for every game. It's not trained per-title, per-face, or per-object type.” Why are Nvidia claiming developers have full control over the artistic intent of DLSS 5 output when it uses a unified model that isn't

• @saruei @saruei on x

  @NVIDIAGeForce Same energy as people who grab someone's work, override the artist's decisions, and pretend it's better because they fed it to generative AI.

  @NVIDIAGeForce Incredible DLSS 5 results when I tested it with Crash Bandicoot [video]

• @synthpotato @synthpotato on x

  @R2VHaze @NVIDIAGeForce Because AI upscaling is great tech, this is far beyond upscaling, this is generating its own interperations of “enhancement” through a literal AI slop filter that actively ignores all intent of art style

• @g27status @g27status on x

  @NVIDIAGeForce LOL. We've reached the point of diminishing returns in game visuals where companies have convinced themselves that some freaky AI filter that slaps an artistic direction in the face is progress worth sharing.

• @nekomichiubc Michi on x

  In Chinese we have an idiom .蛇添足 (adding legs to a painting of a snake) which refers to when someone adds unnecessary embellishments to a piece of work that deviate from the original intent, thus ruining it in the process.

• @nakeyjakey @nakeyjakey on x

  I think a lot of people are starting to realize “better graphics” are separate from artistic vision. Games use so many tools to achieve their intended look- it's not a one size fits all solution and never will be. It's why those unreal engine 5 Mario remakes look like total shit

• @lukestephens Luke Stephens on x

  Seriously though, game studios can't be happy about this either... Right?... This literally turns every game it touches into a crappy AI face filter mess. We need to see studios come out against this crap

• @thespherehunter Suzi Hunter on x

  everything about this is a betrayal of these game's artistry. painting over hand crafted intentional 3d art with shiny, wrinkly, sunken-in, porous, puckered, fraudulent filtered nonsense is deeply disrespectful. if you want this just watch gen-ai videos all day

• @geforce_jacobf Jacob Freeman on x

  @nickgeracehacks @digitalfoundry This was designed with developers. They have artistic control over DLSS 5's effects to ensure they maintain their game's aesthetic. The SDK includes things like intensity, color grading and masking off places where the effect shouldn't be applied.

• @willsmith.fun @willsmith.fun on bluesky

  NVIDIA: What if we introduce ray tracing so you can have really high quality real-time lighting, models that cast shadows on themselves, and game lighting that looks _really_ real?  —  Also NVIDIA: What if we do that, and then throw out that lighting to run the yassify filter so …

  Playing with the DLSS 5 slider in the article, and I guess in addition to making main characters look like weird fashion covers it also just deletes by characters??  Look at the guy on the right or the figures in the BG  —  www.pcgamer.com/software/ai/ ...

• @ramiismail.com Rami Ismail on bluesky

  The only thing prohibiting developers from having artistic control right now is DLSS demolishing your artistic control.  It is open for artistic control should DLSS not do that.  —  www.pcgamer.com/software/ai/ ...

• @pcgamer.com @pcgamer.com on bluesky

  Nvidia says that game developers who support DLSS 5 will have “artistic control” over its effects, but if so, that's not obvious from the first demo.
