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.
"it doesn't draw anything, it's just a bunch of math" to describe vector graphics pipelines used to render frames for games.
I'm not actually disagreeing it's just really funny seeing decades of engineers and mathmaticians collective output being hand waved as "just a bunch of math"
You know what I mean, dammit. lol
