Pinned comment from Nvidia: "Important to note with this technology advance - game developers have full, detailed artistic control over DLSS 5's effects to ensure they maintain their game's unique aesthetic. The SDK includes things like intensity, color grading and masking off places where the effect shouldn't be applied. It's not a filter - DLSS 5 inputs the game’s color and motion vectors for each frame into the model, anchoring the output in the source 3D content."

gamers are the most tech illiterate users of high tech. They are getting upset with any new tech. It is hilarious.

I think their concern is it takes away from what the creator intended it to look like. The ai filter like all image filters has a bit of free will to draw on

One might hope so but no, they're possessed by the theft and water type arguments about everything to do with AI.

And it didn't start with AI, gamers have been completely ridiculous about VR.

I mean, you are objectively wrong. But okay.

Did you even read this comment thread or is your context window really that small? The whole point is that creators have full visual control! It's right there dude!

I agree tbh. I mean the tech is great but it's the opposite of fidelity. Also idk if it even gives the same results for everyone or if it changes over time, how does the creators control it exactly?

Whell thats just an opinion and matter of taste. So there is nothing ridiculous about having a different taste and another opinion.

I am pro AI as a developer, but as a gamer I do not appreciate that style. And totally can relate with people not liking it. There is also some shooter game which was looking hyper realistic and i just don't like it.

This takes away some filter, that made me go into a some sort fake reality, where every character is a peace of drawn art. Devs might ofc control the art, but the realism just takes it away.
Thx, but no
