Remember that Bethesda is owned by Microsoft who wants to increase adoption of this technology for their own financial gain

How would Microsoft benefit from this? I thought they were mainly in the LLM and user information hoarding business.

Ecosystem growth, sales of Azure AI compute power

This is all local though, thus encouraging everyone to get their own GPU. Wouldn't that work against the goal of getting more people on their cloud services?

I haven't looked into DLSS 5 but previous versions required lots of compute to train a model for each specific title, additionally Microsoft and Nvidia may have certain agreements to further the adoption of AI processors that could be used for data harvesting features like Microsoft recall

Nvidia is a company that sells chips

Microsoft is a company better on the future of software running on those chips

It's a big conflict of interest
