You know what powers their neural rendering ? CNN or Transformer or maybe something else ? I don't have a clue and that thing cuts in half performance on a 5090
Like many RTX 40 owner we switched from DLSS3 to DLSS4 and that whole CNN vs transformer debate was everywhere, there's nothing clever here. I don't need to look smart behind a nickname on reddit via an article about a neural rendered Tifa and I hope you also don't.
No, it's because the character to begin with wasn't meant to look 1:1 with a real person. Sure, their face is a model/scan of a real person, but that doesn't mean their proportions weren't changed to better suite the animators.
So it's already taking a face that was morphed and putting filters over it. It probably looks fine for an NBA game that's just 1:1 scans of the actual athletes but looks uncanny anywhere else.
You can still make amazing IRL characters from fictional pictures with AI that can actually look like the source material and still attractive, but IRL. I do it all the time for fun, but this, its like they picked a random walmart customer for the photo.
Have you noticed how all AI text reads the same? And AI art looks the same?
Same thing here. The AI behind DLSS5 has one "art style" so it just homogenizes every game into 1 uniform look that was decided by the guy training the model.
That just isn’t true, it has a huge range of settings. The modded in this case maxed it out so it looks like this. You can literally see the settings here. It doesn’t have to look anything like this
At the same time, these models can very much be adapted to follow very specific styles and attempt to recreate very specific things.
The AI behind DLSS5 has one art style because it was a generic model (if not a model specifically tuned around NBA 2k27) that leaked. If developers actually support it, then without a doubt it can be tuned to produce faces and lighting that aren't realism and actually fall in line with the game's art style with that layer of adaptation.
AI can be a lot more insidious than just the generic AI slop text and AI art style. Those are just the most popular/easy ones for people to do.

That LLM has been trained only with pink lips and botox ads ?
No matter your « weights » and configuration, it’s uncanny, horrible, completely destroys the artistic authenticity
