A five-star bake. Worth schmearing, sharing, saving.
Summary
Nvidia has unveiled DLSS 5, a new AI-powered graphics technology that uses a "3D guided neural rendering model" to change a game's lighting and materials in real-time to achieve photorealism. However, the initial reception from gamers has been negative, with complaints about how it alters character appearances (described as "yassified" Resident Evil Requiem characters) and concerns that it's straying from the original artistic intent. Despite Nvidia's claims that the technology honors artists' vision, many gamers feel the company has "lost the plot" with this latest advancement.
