    Maybe there is eventually a way of making these filters look good by adding (many) additional parameters, but they’re still ignoring the much more important question: how are they going to get this to run on anything other than the compute server they’re currently using.

      You’ll stream your game from an AI datacenter, of course. For only $49.99 per month. And now you can play all the games on trash hardware! While the corp analyzes and records your every move! But only if you have a good internet connection, of course!

      I think that’s the idea. “Experience the biggest game of the year, only on [insert exclusive rent-to-play cloud based platform]”.

      Capitalism: You will own nothing and be happy about it, or else…

        But like, they can already do that with exclusivity deals. This tech just adds extra overhead to that.

        But like, they can already do that with exclusivity deals if its just for games, nonetheless bad looking ones. The only way this would benefit them is if they genuinely think this actually looks good, or they’re trying to further inflate the AI bubble, and one of those two options seems far more likely than the other.

        I mean, given that they previously said it was only running on multi-gpu systems, I can’t see one generation of advancement being enough to make this feasible on consumer hardware. At this point, I’m thinking that this is just a paper product meant to help inflate valuations without any intention to launch it.

          I’d bet its an unoptimized prototype.

          This is quite doable on 5000 cards, theoretically. I was gonna say they’ll make it exclusive to 6000 cards and market it for them, but it’s not even clear a 6000 series is coming at this point…
