DLSS 5 will be the worst thing to EVER happen to video games

Venting outrage, then. Much like the DLSS 5 filter, I appreciate the improved clarity.

What improved clarity are you imagining?

NVIDIA DLSS 5 (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is the next generation of AI-powered neural rendering technology designed to revolutionize game visuals. and it's bad because of AI boogeyman

• What it does: It moves beyond traditional upscaling to use deep learning to understand the "semantics" of a scene (identifying hair, skin, metal) and generates up to 5 AI frames for every real frame.
• Key Features: It adds cinematic-quality lighting (subsurface scattering), enhances material realism, and brings near-native visual fidelity at a lower cost.
• Goal: To deliver ultra-smooth, high-frame-rate gaming with photorealistic graphics, often aimed at pushing the limits of high-refresh gaming in 2026.

Are you capable of doing any more that copy-pasting from NVIDIA's corpo website?

OP, how did you feel about the prior versions of DLSS?

This might be the worst exaggeration that I have read ever, by which I mean in the last few days? Come on, games had day-one patches, micro-transaction, gacha-mechanics, forced always-online features even for single player games, kernel-level anti-cheat systems intruding in your systems, and so much more? This is worse than all of that?

It's a new technology, some people will use it well, some won't, just as the existing ones.

Concerns about the realistic availability and cost of it given the current trends are a lot more justified. Of course, that just means that games for a long time will still need to put in some effort to work without them, because otherwise there is no audience that could play them.
And I also quite understand it if people are concerned that this is yet another way for companies to profit of the work of others and putting those people out of work.

I think people are starting to get lazy with their use of the word “slop”.

One could almost say... sloppy?

You felt irrelevant? Oooookayyyyy.

So... You're using an AI plugin that hallucinates the dislikes on this YouTube video?
