Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

But to your prior point, DLSS is necessarily AI driven, it just uses the specific sections of the gpu in order to store/transform the image with local data (as far as I understand some "pre trained" info from NVDA for the specific game along with recent prior frames) to help do the upscaling. And dlss5 just takes that even further but still done locally on the device.

I do see the point that it's clearly adjusting it to a higher extent then prior dlss versions, however since none of us actually have it in our hands to see, all we can go off of is what is being said/shown. A lot of people are basing their opinions simply off the images from the showcase but NVDA has also mentioned its extremely tunable by the developers directly (and likely by more advanced end users if the devs don't make those tweaks available in their games) kinda like how UE has a ton of hidden tunable settings that most devs don't make actively available but are trivial to adjust for end users if they know which file to modify.

I apologize for my passive aggressive responses, I've mostly been unable to have a nuanced discussion about this topic with other lemmy users and I'm kinda just taking it out on you.
