Jensen Huang had to come out and tell people to stop making fun of DLSS5. AI isn’t going to fall has hard as NFT’s but it’s certainly losing popularity.

Here's an opinion: Whoever decided to reveal DLSS5 deserves a raise. By Nvidia's standards, that is. Everyone is talking about that instead of discussing Nvidia's engagement with Palantir. DLSS5 was a master stroke.

Over compression and blown out...sounds a lot like what they started doing to good audio 30 years ago!

I see a future like today in the audio world. We have those of us who actually know good sound and have a trained ear (note, not talking about snake oil audio bs. My system is under a grand and blows away many systems 5x its price because I dont waste money on idiotic shit like cables )Then there are those who prefer a sausage waveform and clipping. And they are the masses. The same will happen with video games.

Absolutely but it depends on what kind of DLSS we're talking about, since nvidia uses the term to talk about multiple very different technologies. DLSS framegen can make things look smoother but increases latency and introduces visual artifacts. I would never turn it on for something like a first-person shooter, but I could maybe see myself using it in a game like Civ VII where a few extra milliseconds of latency isn't a big deal.

The really important one though is DLSS upscaling. Back in the day if you ran a game at lower resolution (usually for performance reasons) and upscaled it it would look like shit. DLSS upscaling lets you do that and have it look almost as good as rendering it natively, as long as you don't push it too far. It didn't work super well when it was first released, but these days it looks great and can really improve performance.

The benefits of DLSS yassification are questionable.

DLSS, FSR, XeSS, etc are all great for extending the life of older cards. Unfortunately, the GPU manufacturers found this out pretty early on and keep updating the technology to be more and more performance expensive, meaning you need a newer card to get any benefit.

Therefore no, the new versions are not really worth anything other than artificially boosting your framerate, which at that point just dropping the render resolution will probably give you more or less the same result.

The worst is getting spoiled by youtube recommendations

Anecdotally, I've heard that many high schoolers hate AI slop, with "AI" frequently being used as a pejorative to describe low effort, low quality productions lacking sincerity or ingenuity.

Granted, "high schoolers" aren't a monolith, but I don't buy that the future is already written, and I'd urge everyone to fight back and remain optimistic instead of giving in to dark visions of what might be.

I mean, lots of people were and still are annoyed by frame gen too - especially with the deceptive way nvidia uses it in their marketing (claiming a 5070 will be as fast as a 4090 when it actually just makes more fake frames).

It's literally a scene from the Chainsaw Man Movie...
Never trust AI for recognizing AI-generated slop. Even tools that were made for recognizing slop work like 50% of the time.

not here for sure, but Lemmy is not exactly a reflection of the general population

people are starting to grow numb to gen AI, and people have grown numb to worse things so it's not exactly going to get undone easily

Oi! I'm a lazy programmer with no friends, and I will not take this slander!

No programmers.

Losers who see ai as the opportunity to compete with people who are passionate about something else than fame or money.

Hell even from day one I've known some students even who didn't like it. I have met pro-AI people, mostly c-suite wannabes though.

AI is cool. A program being able to generate text so close to human writing or one that is able to generate images that look so real is really impressive

-me in 2021

I hope so, ai should be so expensive it is more affordable to use our own brains.

Knowingly, enjoying the fact that it's AI, marvelling at how far it's come…

I'm tired, boss.
