I’m completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it’s running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.
The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace’s face look “sexier” because apparently that’s what realism looks like now.
I wouldn’t be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they’re advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.
I still don’t understand all the extreme anti-ai cult in these types of contexts. Oh well.
Whatever ai did, the right image looks better than the left.
I honestly think the anti ai thing has a lot of crowd mentality aspects to it. There’s reasons to dislike some of what big ai business is doing, more reasons to push for regulation. But this specific example? I got nothin…
A lot of people in here are just autistic retards and will hate on anything even mentioning AI. Just look at how pretty much nobody has any thought or discussion about how this is in development still and will probably improve over time, and like it couldn’t be used in any other areas of a game. All you hear is just ’wah wah wah stupid beauty filter wah wah wah’! Same with the dual graphics card part, it’s like they think a 5090 is the last card we are ever gonna get.
The same thing can be seen with the artistic intent people are mentioning. I am not saying there’s no artistic intent behind the artwork in games but sometimes if you go back far enough you’re just gonna see models limited by the technology at the time.
I saw someone mention an older rally game in here and wouldn’t it be fantastic to at least have the option to go back and play it with better graphics?
People have repeatedly in this thread talked about how it also added details that were not hinted in the original, and in part it looks like adding makeup, which could totally undermine a character or setting if they are unlikely to care about our have time for makeup.
Characters that have barely survived in the wilderness for weeks somehow wearing lipstick and eyeliner and eyeshadow… That’s the sort of thing that can happen with this approach.
If only Leonardo de Vinci had a camera, can you imagine how much better the Mona Lisa would have been? /s
