I'm completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it's running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.
The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace's face look "sexier" because apparently that's what realism looks like now.
I wouldn't be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they're advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.
Ai hate is so strong!
I think it looks extremely promising. It may be a bit uncanny with the faces, probably fixable, but environments are dope!
This is fantastic, this is probably the way to get completely realistic graphics. This is the way, this is finally actual progress in realism.
Yeah I agree. Looks like this will begin to finally solve the uncanny valley problem. The crying is so loud though. I almost feel sorry for them. This is unstoppable. I wish they could see that but they won't. It's crazy to me that these anti AI cultists think that they're going to shame AI into going away. It's just not going to happen and they're going to just get more screechy and moral and blind. I hope they get the help they need.
The uncanny valley is more a product of designing for "life-like" over things like "cute" or "endearing" or "emotionally expressive".
Meaning, we can already cross the uncanny valley, and this AI filter will not help with any of it.
Yeah, but you know what will happen, all of a sudden the games will become amazing and everybody will want to play. All of them ๐
