Why does everyone hate NVIDIA’s DLSS 5 AI upscaling?
NVIDIA caused an online storm this week when it announced DLSS 5 at its GTC conference. The company says it aims to provide “photorealistic” lighting and materials in games using neural processing. But this differs significantly from previous versions of DLSS, which focused on using machine learning to boost lower resolutions and generate additional frames, and online gamers aren’t very happy. To help us understand this, Anshel Sag, VP and Principal Analyst at Moor Insights and Strategy, joins us to discuss his experience with NVIDIA’s DLSS 5 demos. We also look at what’s next for Xbox with Project Helix.
