That’s a good point, but this technique isn’t suddenly going to be replacing people’s works, jobs, or IP.

I’ve criticized NVIDIA for being the abusive monopoly that it is in nearly every other comment, but what you are describing isn’t even limited to just NVIDIA, and frankly, I’m not going to be really defending major IP holders, just the small creators. There’s a lot of generative AI that’s endangering small creators, but in my opinion this is not endangering it.

My biggest problem with AI training ignoring intellectual property is their hypocrisy to rush technology that is being used to try to replace a lot of real world jobs blindly, not to protect excessively long IP laws and IP copyright trolls and hoarders. People should download their free cars if they can.

True, but this is what this filter is actually doing: https://streamable.com/j0ryqe

It can manipulate lighting and material, but it has to be in the source material, if that makes sense.

It’s worse, I made plenty of criticism to go along with those comments. They are downvoting not only anything that breaks the circlejerk. They’ve been given free reign to be as toxic as possible, to the point of just being able to get away with spamming multiple communities with claims I’m a bot - and I can’t even have my usual fun trolling back in the sea of downvotes because I wrongly dismissed that this was generative AI, something Jensen himself had referred to as 😭

It would be funny if my account is lost for an issue so temporary. I’ve already begun to see the circlejerk try to get over what this actually is by switching over from claiming it is AI slop to saying it just makes it look like it and criticism that’s actually more valid. Still, it’s led to the pretty funny circumstances of people implying I’m an NVIDIA shill, because that also implies that NVIDIA shills have to now get around by telling people they should not support them and their abusive monopoly feeding the AI bubble through global cartels.

It certainly is using generative AI methods given Jensen is calling it that. People have their own issues with things, but IP theft is the biggest for me given it shows the disturbing amount of leeway people developing have been given to break the law.

There is no better way to enshittify something than to crowdsource it

Just to be clear, this is what you have a problem with: https://streamable.com/j0ryqe

DLSS 5 introduces a real-time neural rendering model that infuses pixels with photoreal lighting and materials. Bridging the divide between rendering and reality, DLSS 5 empowers game developers to deliver a new level of photoreal computer graphics previously only achieved in Hollywood visual effects.

DLSS 5 takes a game’s color and motion vectors for each frame as input, and uses an AI model to infuse the scene with photoreal lighting and materials that are anchored to source 3D content and consistent from frame to frame. DLSS 5 runs in real time at up to 4K resolution for smooth, interactive gameplay.

At most it’s texture generation, but if Jensen already identified it as generative AI, I’m not sure why they would then go and lie about it only affecting lighting and material at the pixel level.

It’s image generation just like the prototypes that converted your drawings into “realistic” image are.

This it is not, and if Jensen hadn’t referred to as generative AI, I would still think it’s just an evolution of what DLSS had been doing, except expanded to lighting and materials. Jensen obviously has no problem referring to this as generative AI, so I’m not sure why he would hide and lie about doing what you claim.

I think the algorithm just realized that it involved someone old because it draws a lot of other characters without this excessive filter. Out of curiosity, I looked the character up, and she’s supposed to be old and even haggish as the professor of defense against the dark arts: https://www.thehergula.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Dinah-Hecat.jpg The wiki even describes her as having been aged excessively by being “injured by time itself”. Honestly, DLSS 5 did an apt rendition at least for this character.

If it gets any more refined, it will probably make it onto Indiana Jones and The Great Circle and Cyberpunk 2077, and if I didn’t mind supporting an abusive monopoly feeding a global cartel and their overpriced markets I might even consider trying it.

This just does not have the same issues with AI slop that I’m concerned about, although it still has plenty of tertiary issues that will make me ignore it on my PC.

Well, at least he has lowered his expectations down from Canada and Greenland, but given how Iran is going, his threats are empty for now. There’s a little bit of me that worries that Agent Krasnov might be doing this in cooperation with Russia.

I wouldn’t have called this generative AI, but Jensen did. Great for stills, uncanny valley for motions. People are claiming it generates completely new images, but in this instance it keeps the same geometry and texture and just processes motion and color vectors to create a hyper-rendered version of the characters.

Ignoring the obvious problems of the hardware it requires and supporting the AI bubble feeding monopoly that is NVIDIA, it is interesting technology that doesn’t actually seem to act as a medium for IP theft, my beef with what I call AI slop. It might only be practically good for photo mode in games, but it will be interesting to see how it works out. It could kickstart interest in making Let’s Play in a more Machinima style.

Think again. You are falling for the circlejerk slop in this thread and think this is actually (image generation) generative AI (slip o´d tongue, since Jensen has at the very least presented it as such).

DLSS 5 basically works best with high-resolution ray traced render stills because it works on a frame by frame basis. It doesn’t modify shape or geometry, it achieves that much by just manipulating the lighting and materials that are applied. If you actually compare screenshots side by side, you’ll find they include all of the same elements.

With Daggerfall, it wouldn’t really work out, insert pixelated mess, get pixelated mess, although it might be interesting to see.

I’m sure there will be cases it does have that effect, but that isn’t a hag on the right, that’s just an old person with wrinkles. If it was making them up, I’d agree with your hagification claim, but every single wrinkle was present beforehand. It just genuinely looks like a better version, whereas the one on the left looks like a lower res version of the same render.

It’s probably going to look horrible in gameplay though, the uncanny valley effect of motion is ridiculous.

It does not generate a new image, thus generates no AI slop in my book. It is literally an image filter with AI, which is what DLSS already was. This circlejerk slop has torpedoed any discussion about the actual flaws - the uncanny valley effect during animation, the ridiculous amount of GPU power this technology seems to need, how absurd it is in the actual economy - and has substituted it for its circlejerk hallucination that this is just them sneaking image generation into DLSS.

• It takes color and motion vectors and passes it as input through AI - same as previous versions of AI.

• It generates no new shapes or geometry.

• It just applies changes to lighting and materials, basically creating a mask over the original.

If you call this “image generation”, you might as well call any filter that. This is not the generative AI the circlejerk slop is hallucinating. It’s an evolution of what DLSS was able to achieve before.

I’ve actually just been corrected, this was referred to employ some form of generative AI by Jensen. It’s also significantly different enough to what I generally thought of as AI slop and my issues with it that it could also be said that I am a supporter of generative AI now.

Linux is BAD - Best Android Dependency.

There still need to be people to go in and arrest them, and meat is cheaper than motors and hydraulics using resources that would otherwise remain unexploited.

Sorry bud, Russia launched the “three day” invasion of Ukraine, not the other way around. Digital ID surveillance, that’s not party dependent, how blind do you have to be to not see Palantir over in the US. From the power hungry to the people seeing fake Internet theory work out in social networks, they all want “digital ID surveillance”.

Go enshittify piefed, some of their promoters seem to want you there.

Sorry to offend your favorite country’s pedoking ally that you had to go several decades into the past. Funny though, the love relationship between Trump and Putin, and how offended people like you seem to get when either are criticized.

NATO is a defense alliance. That it has or hasn’t lived up to the designation isn’t a good segue into your propaganda spins and attempts at talking bullshit about other users, it can be criticized when it hasn’t just as it is being criticized now.

The Yugoslav Army only does humanitarian ethnic cleansing.
