I’m completely speechless. This looks so terrible I thought it was a joke, but apparently Nvidia released these demos to impress people. DLSS 5 runs the entire game through an AI filter, making every character look like it’s running through an ultra realistic beauty filter.
The photo above is used as the promo image for the official blog post by the way. It completely ignores artistic intent and makes Grace’s face look “sexier” because apparently that’s what realism looks like now.
I wouldn’t be so baffled if this was some experimental setting they were testing, but they’re advertising this as the next gen DLSS. As in, this is their image of what the future of gaming should be. A massive F U to every artist in the industry. Well done, Nvidia.

New Worms game looking hype though
‘Artists have the final say’
They already had the final say.
Wow, all of those I unreal engine “next Gen” Mario and Zelda videos were right.
Thank you for finally providing the context for this image. I’ve seen it all over the place but I don’t game on PC so I wasn’t going to take the time to look it up.
Is the DLSS AI slop going to lead to homogenization of game aesthetics? That’s really fucking lame.
slop
it just seems to be fucking the lighting up while also slopifying beauty stereotypes onto women making them look homogenized and not like the artists want (not even just adding detail, it changed hair from blond to bleached brown and changed face bone shape)
who actually even wants this, like, actually wants to use it??
As we already know, this is the south park timeline, so DLSS 6 (or a later one like 7 or 8) will most likely have undressing functionality.
AMD should thank Nvidia for giving them customers (i’ve never actually used, and never will use, an Nvidia GPU, i have intel integrated gpu + amd gpu rn (but this pc is pretty old), previously i used a Mac. hopefully ill be able to get a new thing with a good AMD GPU)
Leaving aside the question of artistic intent, does this not lead to every player having a different experience? Or maybe even every session? DLSS 5 seems to fill in a looot of details and even changing things. How are they making sure it’s the same for every player?
Can I have this for teams? I work with so many ugly people that I need to paint them over in real time 😁
I don’t care if 2 50x somethings need to run on 100 percent half the day.

Changed the bone structure of the face and the clavicle.
If claims about video game characters setting standards for beauty, hold any substance, then the same logic should be calling this racist propaganda.
New Mario game looks 🔥🔥fr fr
It doesn’t look like the same character anymore. The right side just looks like something AI hallucinated that is vaguely similar. If that were a real person you wouldn’t be able to recognize them anymore.
Also, what the fuck do you call that? “Standard Human Face” ?
AI has never fixed shit ever. It always just makes shit up. I wouldn’t even use it to remove the Starbucks cup from Game of Thrones, cause I don’t know what the fuck it will put there instead. Whatever it “thinks” is supposed to be there, I guess.
Just to be clear, this is what you have a problem with: https://streamable.com/j0ryqe
Digital Foundry somehow still praises it 🤦🏻♀️
