My first reaction to DLSS5 can be summarized as “🤮”.

@obsurveyor @aras
I think it's up to the games to enable it?

[feyter@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras next step is just shipping the default cube and the AI will make the game that billioners think people should play... or a break through in technology, how nvidea would phrase it.

[logicalerror@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras not just you
feels more like a part trick than serious technology to me. I certainly wouldn't use this

[aeva@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras it's horrible. i hate it so much.

[keefjudge@mastodon.social]

@logicalerror @aras Ewww! I had to check it wasn't April 1st yet!!! 🤮🤮🤮

[dougbinks@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras I don't have words for this. Why would anyone think this is a good idea?

[msk@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras more like visual infidelity

[mdiluz@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras not just you. Realtime yassification isn't something I ever wanted.

[accela@libretooth.gr]

@aras Leon with that AI lighting looks like a protagonist gazing the moonlight in some romantic movie.

Art directors must be having some fun time right now.

[tecteun@mastodon.social]

@aras it needs more fingers 😆 damn thats ugly

[soulsource@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras Wow. It looks amazing ... ... ly ugly.

[molecularmusing@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras Companies just won't stop filling this timeline with gazillions of AI-enabled things nobody needs.

Make it stop.

[tecteun@mastodon.social]

@aras also, this has nothing to do with super sampling, it's making stuff up. Next stop: porn and lawsuits.

[rygorous@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras it's not just you, this is a fucking disgrace

[sol_hsa@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@Doomed_Daniel @obsurveyor @aras ..for now..

[msinilo@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras Imagine running this on a Mario or Zelda game...

[molecularmusing@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras At some point we can just forget about making models, animations, whatever, and ship low-poly soups because some AI shit will do whatever the hell it wants with the pixels, AI-"enhancing" them anyway.

[tomf@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras This is clearly garbage, driven by the worst techbro impulses.

[eobet@oldbytes.space]

@aras 4000 euro yassify filter! 🙃

[soulsource@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@aras I just realized what this reminds me of: My old crappy Casio digital camera, which had a non-optional "denoiser" (probably also "AI" based) that smoothed away a lot of details and re-added stuff that wasn't there.

Even with all filters off, everyone looked like they were wearing makeup. I hated that thing (but couldn't afford to buy another camera back then).
