Now with its own dedicated hardware: the SPU (Slop Processing Unit)
Apparently you need a second RTX 5090 dedicated just to slopification duty
Where can I post this ? Seriously I would love nvidia to see this.
Looks like they trained their stuff on instagram posts tbh
It is too… clean? The lighting is too “perfect”. Each object is an idea rather than an image to be interpreted. It conforms to what instagram considers to be realistic.
This is a mirror of human delusion averaged and contorted to gaze into itself, and as such I abhor it.
This video has a neat showcase of what’s going on here. So-called “AI” adds detail where there should be none, which makes the faces look like worn-out, but polished leather.
And I am fascinated by the number of people who, after all those years, still have no idea how DLSS and neural networks work.
Guess they didn’t realize games have an art style.
Tampering with that by making all games look the same is destructive to the graphic art style.
Booo It’s bad Boooooo
It’s like putting ketchup on a hamburger! If the chef wanted you to have ketchup, he would have put it on there himself. You’re spitting in his face by making changes to accommodate your personal preferences. One size fits all!
I think it’s a bit different.
It’s more like changing a human made painting with AI to make the person look like modern IG “models”.
I think it’s fine to add condiments to food. That’s not really the same as painting over real human art , with AI slop.
Is DLSS 5 a hard requirement to play the game? If not the condiment comparison is apt.
Ah, using modern Photoshop to look like fake people, tale as old as time. It is kinda funny that in showing that ai is crap, you showed that humans are crap too.
That’s like saying “you shouldn’t mod games, 'cause that’s not what the dev intended”. Idgaf what the dev/chef intended, if I like mods in my burger, I’m gonna season it to my liking.
You can dislike what this dlss5 is doing all you want to, but in the end, no one is forcing you to actually use it. Sure, some devs will start to rely on it, but those same devs never gave half a shit about what their burger tasted like in the first place. They’re the equivolent of a McDonalds burger. The devs who won’t rely on this, and who have a vision for their artstyle won’t be affected from this, in the same way that indie devs aren’t affected by the newest call of duty.
The devs who give a shit aren’t gonna be forced to even make this available in their games. DLSS has always been a choice, if the chef doesn’t want me to put ketchup in their game, they shouldn’t offer it by putting the ketchup on the table in the first place.
It reminds me more of that old meme of “if Mona Lisa was painted today”.
No thx. I’m not too big on the last few generations of gaming anyway but if they’re really going to push their slop like this I’m out fully.
I knew that nvidia will at some point make graphics fully ai generated, skipping the rendering.
This is not the case… yet.
Some companies already tried this multiple times in the last two years, the future of gaming is looking bright
No way. Nvidia is currently the only gpu that do utilize 1440p 500hz oled monitors. Dlss4. 5 is a have charger for high refresh gaming.
Digital Foundry are gushing over how amazing this is. https://www.digitalfoundry.net/features/nvidias-new-dlss-5-brings-photo-realistic-lighting-to-rtx-50-series
Yeah sure it looks more “real” but you are losing so much expression and you are making the image look like it was badly photoshopped.
I think half of their comparison screenshots look flatout worse with DLSS 5
How is the removal of shadows considered to be better lighting in any way?
It looks impressive and bad at the same time to me
Impressively bad.
Im a console player so the background in the Skyrim clip looked impressive to me, but everything else looked really weird and boring even though it ‘technically’ looked better to me
Ehhhh. I saw the text (“The Real Deal” poster on the window in one comparison). There’s still some artifacting, which to me is a deal breaker, especially if I have to DLSS everything instead of selected items.
But I’m also not a game developer, so I don’t know if the modeling differences are worth the tradeoff for something that most people won’t see in motion.
I actually love DLSS 4.5. no other method or gpu can do 1440p 500fps to run my oled monitor, but DLSS4. 5 can and it runs and plays amazing. I won’t go back to 144hz just to play native if i have a choice to do 500fps dlss.
I think you might be experiencing a bit of a placebo effect with a framerate of over 240. Pretty much anything after that has significantly diminished returns for the compute requirements.
I’m not. I have my 500hz oled as my main monitor next to a 280hz lcd. Big difference. 500fps gaming is crazy good.
At least for competitive games the better motion clarity of 240+ FPS is clearly noticeable.
But then again its questionable whether generating those frames with DLSS has any kind of competitive advantage.
I feel like this is a case of “My $80 platinum plated monster 3.5mm audio cable gives so much better music quality.”
It’s not though, i have a 500hz oled next to my 280hz lcd screen. They are not even close.
As I said it strongly depends on what you do with it. One of my main hobbies is aim training and there the difference is clearly noticeable. And there are many trustworthy voices in the aim training community that back this up. It’s also noteworthy that other factors of the monitor impact motion clarity more than just the refresh rate. For example an OLED panel has way better motion clarity than IPS panels.
But in the end stuff like this obviously won’t give you superpowers. You have to train to actually get gud.
I hate how bad NVIDIA has to be in general, because DLSS is legitimately amazing technology. Even the frame gen in DLSS 4 that was pretty rough at first is shockingly good in Borderlands 4 for example. Too bad they’re the reason no one can buy RAM
As an embedded systems engineer, I find VLSI shaders to be a fantastic technology.
Simultaneously, AI code overall is absolute fucking trash.
Was watching the Digital Foundry review of this tech. They seemed impressed, the people in the comments were scathing
Everyday I think things can’t get worse. That maybe this will be the breaking point. But no.
The main Resident Evil example is just awful. It’s like an Instagram filter.
It’s worse than that guy who has been going around photoshopping “Ugly” female game characters to make them look hotter.
I hate this reality.
Don’t forget that when Sony went back and did the HD remaster, they actually remodeled her that way.
All of the worst people are winning.
Jesus Christ
Well at least the photoshopping is done by a human.
