If game makers don’t like it, “they could decide not to use it, you know?"

    Because DLSS 5 is “open,” Huang said artists can train the model for the specific kind of look they want. In the future, Huang said artists will also be able to prompt DLSS 5 with examples or a description of a desired look—“I want it to be a toon shader,” for instance. And if visual artists want to use DLSS 5’s models “to generate the opposite of photoreal, yeah, it’ll do that too,” he said.

    So it’s genAI. It’s AI slop. Fuck this headline.

      So, yeah. AI slop, but customizable AI slop. Well, at least it won’t necessarily transform every character in your game to an airbrushed anime waifu. Still going to be pretty crap and inconsistent, though.

      And then, of course, there’s the ludicrous performance cost. If you’re doing this to be a ‘toon shader’, you could use existing toon shaders that are so, so much more performant … so performant that you don’t need a second 5090 to run them…
