"I think their perspective makes sense and I can see where they're coming from, because I don't love AI slop myself. You know, all of the AI-generated content increasingly looks similar and they're all beautiful and so I'm empathetic towards what they're thinking."
"But that's not what DLSS 5 is trying to do. After DLSS 5 was unveiled with a video demo last week, gamers and developers from every corner of the internet retaliated by calling it 'slop' and accusing it of undermining artistic intent."
"It was the rare example of gamer outrage being warranted: the feature used a generative AI model to plaster a familiar hyperreal AI sheen onto the games' graphics, making character faces look Facetuned to conform to trendy beauty standards."
"Huang days later questionably struck back by calling gamers 'completely wrong' - the thrust of all ironclad arguments - claiming that DLSS 5 doesn't take away from 'artistic control.'"
Nvidia's DLSS 5 feature has received significant backlash from gamers and developers, who criticize its use of AI to create a homogenized aesthetic in video games. CEO Jensen Huang acknowledged the criticism, stating he shares concerns about AI-generated content looking similar. Despite this, he defended DLSS 5, claiming it does not undermine artistic intent. The feature has been mocked online, with gamers dubbing it 'sloptracing' due to its tendency to produce unrealistic character designs and AI hallucinations, such as exaggerated facial features.
