    And there’s still people who think this is a good thing and an evolution in graphics. You can guess what their political alignments are pretty quickly.

      The guess would be entirely wrong, of course, but I can sense that has never stopped you before.

        If you don’t think gen AI is a fascist technology and praise it then i’m fairly certain that putting you in the fascist box is correct.

          Lol. I am as far from fascist as one can get. Based on your answer, I don’t believe you even know what fascism is.

            If you knew what it was you’d understand that gen AI is such thing. It steals the intellectual power of others to create dumbed down slop with the goal of making the general public less educated and reliant on it. It’s a trap made by technofascist billionaires to keep the masses from taking all of their heads, and this administration just happens to be all in on that too, using it for surveillance to disappear minorities and political opponents.

              I disagree with multiple assertions you’ve made. It doesn’t steal anything. Neither does it have a goal. People using it may steal, and those with the most successful products may have goals - but that’s not the technology. This is like saying guns are fascist. Or cars are fascist. Or phones are fascist.

              It’s a tool, and like any tool, the motive and ethics of it’s use is directly attributable to the user, not the tool.

                The motive and ethics are from the tech companies that created them. Those are the ones with technofascist aspirations.

                  Some, yes, not all. No one company created the technology. You can’t use a blanket accusation to condemn all forms of machine learning just because Altman (OpenAI), Zuckerberg (Meta) and Elon Musk are obvious fascists, and they’re championing the technology. Call them out specifically, it’s more effective than “all AI bad.”

                    I’m specifically talking about LLMs and generative AI. Those are NOT the same as machine learning because they don’t learn anything, they’re text predictive algorithms that were given infinite amounts of resources.

      Weird… I like this and see this as a bonus to uplifting old games.

      So what’s my political alignment?

        How, precisely, would this “uplift old games”?

        Are you suggesting that their rights holders should commission some game devs to update their old titles to add support for DLSS5? Where’s the value proposition in that?

          I think it will likely be able to be injected into any game that already supports DLSS. I wish that list was longer, but perhaps someone will create a wrapper so it works with any executable. Then it could work on older games and emulators. Preferably with tuning adjustments so you can find the sweet spot you’re looking for.

        No one cares about old games looking realistic and if you do you should probably look for modern games instead.
