And this is why indie games will probably have a second golden age.

Oh god no, I hate ai slop

Nvidia actually used two RTX 5090s for its demos: one plays the game, the other exclusively runs the DLSS 5 technology. The use of two GPUs is required right now as DLSS 5 still has a long way to go in terms of optimisation - both in terms of performance and its VRAM footprint. However, DLSS 5 is designed for use on a single GPU and that's how it will ship later this year.

So much easier when you can just throw 2x the hardware at things. Let's wait and see how it works on a single card.

Also, guessing it will be set up so developers can turn it on and off as needed in their game. If they make it a user-facing global setting, it will quickly turn into a meme generator.

AI filters on the end result that basically kills the soul of the art direction. I can see a game parody that capitalizes on this.

Maaaan.... I really wish they'd fuck off with this shit, but it's only going to get worse because this is how they're going to push cloud gaming given it takes 2 5090's to achieve this, and dummies will help them because she's hotter now.

A long way down this road there are a bunch of morons voluntarily plugging themselves into the matrix, dick first.

Hmmm I also just thought of how this is it looking the "best" for the demo and that most of the time it will just be the makeup gun set to "whore"

Thanks! I hate it!

I'm looking forward to seeing this utilized in games.

Finally, Gamers™ are getting a filter for all the female protagonists that aren't hot enough. Gaming is healing!

It feels like homogenization of art. The filter pays no attention to the original art style and just conforms it to nividias Ai style.

The demos run on the back of two 5090 GPUs... At what point do we even acknowledge I shouldnt need to be using nearly 2kW of power on a gaming PC on a dedicated circuit in my home? Simply diminishing returns at a certain point and nvidia is bringing us way past that point into very unreasonable territory.

Is it cool they could do it at all?... I GUESS?! But they've definitely lost the plot here.

Came here to post this, I'm glad it's blowing up. What new monstrosities they unleash upon us... I don't know how to even list all the things I have problem with with this.

Omg someone tell that young person her lips are looking thin!

Meanwhile my windows PC restarts if I launch a game with kernel level anti-cheat, after updating my GPU driver a few months ago. Just tried the new driver, instant reboot.

MS and Nvidia are fucking entirely made of vibe-coding morons, and apparently testing is no longer needed.

the inability to read the room, lol. and I thought I was autistic

This looks so bad, like uncanny 3d porn bad.

Reading through the comments, this is definitely an unpopular opinion, but while I don't love it, it does look more "realistic" to me, even if it should look more like the source material.

We can't play games unless we play exactly as the developers intended (constant bug fixes, online requirement, anticheat etc. for non competitive games), but Nvidia can ensure games are portrayed differently, entirely shoving a middle finger in artists' faces? And you raise a valid point --

AI is trained on what, exactly, because AI filters always enhance facial definition, add makeup like shadow, blush and lipstick, and full body upscaling adds flat stomachs with abs, perfectly symmetrical D cup breasts, in this case blonde highlights are apparently more appealing than the original.. It all stinks of the generic 2010's Western white heterosexual man's idea of the perfect woman's body. It's like every beauty filter is made by Jack Black's character from Shallow Hal.

Don't call it DLSS!

Call it AISSS (AI Slop Supersampling)!
