Can’t or won’t?
“money”
Why wouldn’t it?
It’s talking about two things “AI” which is actually a pretty good use of the label
-
Generatinga lower Rez screen and upscaling.
-
Generating addition frames based on what might happen in between real screens
There’s no valid reason not to use that. Hardware costs more so you’d be paying a lot more money for the same performance. With less people making that choice, the price differential would be even greater.
Like, this is right. They can’t make them without this for low enough people will buy it.
It’s facts bro
In the future it’ll be less about upscaling. And more about giving the algorithm a minimalist basic 3D representation as a starting point. And then told to make it photo real. Ray tracing isn’t really going anywhere. But AI radiosity is going to supplant it in many applications.
Think about it. These algorithms are already making impressive if uncanny images from Simple Text prompts. In less time than it would take most CPU GPU combinations on consumer Hardware to actually Ray trace a scene. Ray tracing will always be there when you need the accuracy. But AI radiosity is going to offer benefits most people don’t even comprehend yet.
For instance once it makes its way into consumer Hardware etc. Suddenly a lot of older games will be able to have their Graphics upgraded with no recoding or tricks. Just using the input video stream as a reference.
That’s an entirely different thing and not happening anytime soon…
That’s the worst thing about labeling this stuff “ai” it chefs lumped into crazy no feasible shit like you’re talking about.
Wrong as usual. Heres a video from 2 years ago. From an actual light transport researcher for 3d rendering. Again, this likely won’t be on your 50 series GPU. But it is something very actively being researched. And likely will start showing up in consumer hardware before the end of the decade.
A two year old YouTube prediction with no other evidence?
Obviously you’re a man of science…
It’s literally just a two to three minute long video. With literal links to the research paper in question. Perhaps you should read more and talk less.
It’s weird on a day old thread you immediately get two extra upvotes, and I get three downvotes as soon as you reply…
I don’t help people who play thos silly games, have a nice life.

Fuck off Nvidia.
This just seems like they are trying to take a shortcut that might end up having unforeseen consequences. I have no problem with AI upscaling as a technology. It’s already proven its merit with almost all triple A games that have come out in the past few years. But this just seems like a way to push the cost off onto consumers by making them buy more expensive hardware at the cost of efficiency. Games are so poorly optimized these days that this just seems like another way to release games that run like ass. If you see this as a benefit in any way, just remember that we will all be paying the extra cost that they get to save.
And of course there’s gonna be people that’ll just be like “upgrade your PC, bro” which just makes us fight amongst ourselves instead of fighting the companies that are fucking us over. We’ll fight each other for hours on end about how shitty someone’s PC is before we even consider that the game they are playing is so poorly optimized it’s a miracle it even works on a high end PC. It’s already to the point that a $4,000 PC isn’t even enough to play some common triple A titles at a good frame rate. I can play God of War at the highest setting with no issues whatsoever but can’t even play Jedi Survivor at a stable frame rate. Sure a better PC would achieve better results, but that’s not a hardware issue.
Maybe gamers should star withholding money… that’s the most effective way to regulate these clowns. Deny them profit unless their product/service DESERVES to be rewarded.
Remember every time you give a shiti company money, you are feeding your enemy. They turn around and use this money to enslave you as worker AND customer.
Last 15 years clearly painted a picture of who and what we are dealing with… don’t collaborator with the corpo oppressor. something about six foot pole…
Games are so poorly optimized these days
Yeah. Valheim runs with 2 FPS in the menu on my iGPU that runs even badly optimized Ark Survival on medium settings.
You better look for a new job then and let someone tale over who can, then.
Lazy CEOs just don’t want to work anymore!
Gotta sell more video cards!
*AI chips.
Can’t be bothered to*
Can someone EL5 the pros and cons of upscaling? Why is this so controversial with some gamers?
Pros, more fps on low end hardware.
Cons, worse image, ghosting, blur, artifacting, lower overall performance because devs rely on upscaling.It’s existence is a crutch. Games should be made properly and not rely on ML upscaling for meaningful performance.
Hardware is insanely powerful at the moment, the problem is time isnt spent making the most out of it anymore, which then increases demand for more powerful hardware (that we dont need). The sales loop for Nvidia, except now they want to sell you ML optimised cards, which cost more.
Thanks! So, from what I grok, the claim is basically that the games could probably run fine if they were written and optimized properly, but since they’re probably not, people have to buy a GPU that applies a bandaid solution. Right?
Yep. As more people buy GPUs that have the capabilities to use machine learning upscaling (the bandaid) then the more likely developers are to use it instead of spending time improving performance.
I see it the most in Unreal Engine games, Unreal Engine allows devs to make a “realistic” style game fast, but performance is often left in the dirt. UE also has some of the worst anti-aliasing out of the box, so DLSS for example, is a good catch all to try and improve framerates and provide some AA, but instead you just get a lot of blur and poor graphical fidelity. The issues probably don’t exist at higher resolutions, like 4K (which is maybe what they develop with), but the majority of people still use 1080p.
Oops sorry for the rant! I just got pissed off with it again recently in Satisfactory!
Basically, they use AI as a crutch instead of making the games better. This is bad because it will require more power and more expensive hardware to run the AI.
It’s just another graphics-enhancing tool. But instead of fixed-algorithm antialiasing, it’s machine-learning-powered “fill in the blank”.
I don’t think this application is really all that controversial. Some people are unhappy that AAA games are going to expect or require compatible hardware in the future for no good reason, if the game itself runs just fine without it.
Yes they cant. Dlss is something they developed and every single one of their GPU has cuda cores ( not only for ai , they are just generaly usefull ). Pepole are expecting them to work with dlss. Its kinda stating the obvius
