Hope you like slop in your slop: Nvidia's DLSS 5 AI-infused tech transforms pixels with photorealistic lighting and materials

DLSS 5 is on track for a Fall 2026 debut and replaces a game’s original textures with AI-inflused versions to make them hyperreal. Or, out of one uncanny valley and into another!

Huh. This kind of seems like expanding beyond the scope of helping framerates.

Is yassifying each frame going to further drive up system requirements?

  How else to sell the new 1000w graphics cards right?

  I can’t wait for AI to be able to on the fly change games into any art style i want.

Maybe this is just imo but making images 10000% sharper does not improve quality.

  This is more like painting over an existing painting to make it “better” imo

  It doesn’t even look good, it looks generic.
  
  Their model wiped out all that atmospheric fog in the background and fucked with the contrast so badly that it changed the mood of this scene from genuinely-creepy Resident Evil screenshot into an uncannilly airbrushed tiktok filter selfie. That water/rain, grime, and rust on the walkway behind the character almost got removed entirely, the door on the ice machine on the opposite side got a lot of extra weathering and scratches instead, their hair has even changed color from blonde to badly bleached brunette in need of a touchup, and the eyes have too, from pale green to deep blue.
  
  The fact that Nvidia thought this was a noteworthy improvement over the original is a sign that the inmates are running the asylum. Tech companies should leave the art to actual artists, because clearly just AI-upscaling a game’s textures without an art director involved in every step of the process is only going to bury it deeper in the uncanny valley.

    It’s even worse if you watch the video they posted, it looks kinda ok in a still frame but because it’s an ai filter it’s constantly churning

  It’s genuinely disturbing that people like you exist. This is so much worse looking. It removes all of the detail and heart to have an ugly, generic ai image.
