Early reactions to Nvidia’s DLSS 5 were swift and skeptical, with some observers likening the technology to an Instagram-style filter applied over gameplay footage. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang refuted the allegations, but subsequent clarifications have helped outline how the system actually works – and where it can fall short.
I’m not sure why this is such a big deal. It’s only going to affect the 7 or 8 people in the world that can afford the 2 top of the line graphics cards and the RAM required to run it.
Well, I hate the AI slop look it outputs and until now DLSS was supposed to increase performance, now it does the exact opposite. Also fuck Nvidia, they deserve all the hate .
This is a culmination of years in which gamers kept getting ignored when they ask for some consideration to their needs like more memory, better Linux drivers, and smaller form factors. Instead we get hit with their server farm AI slop runoff and told this is what we want. To me it’s an insult for wanting something that’s more specialized to gaming and graphical work rather than some LLM platform.
Ahh,I get it now. It’s not about them creating something that sucks, it’s about them creating something that sucks instead of something else we’ve been asking for that would be actually useful. Thanks for filling in the missing piece.
The way stocks work, as soon as nvidia stops “pushing the limits” and “creating and promoting ground breaking tech” then their stock will crater, as its no longer a company with growth potential.
This means the most important thing for a business like Nvidia is to keep the hype train running, and adding cars whenever they can. Only ideas that can provide that outcome are approved.
