Nvidia's DLSS 5: Even Developers Are Perplexed
The new graphics technology struggles to find consensus

Let's talk again about DLSS 5, Nvidia's technology that could evolve the use of artificial intelligence in video game development. The presentation demonstrated how DLSS 5 can significantly change the way elements such as skin, fabrics, and hair are rendered: it is therefore a tool of considerable scope, but one that risks shifting development too much in the direction of AI, which has caused understandable criticism, with the sharp response from Nvidia's CEO.
Developers' Opinions on DLSS 5
However, the criticisms from the online community have been joined by those of several developers, who can undoubtedly provide a more qualified opinion on the matter. Kotaku interviewed some industry professionals, and their perplexities converge on one point: DLSS 5 could remove the author's imprint, eliminating what makes the game's design unique, to replace it with something else.

This "something else" is described in unflattering terms: a clumsy attempt at realism, or a rough hypothesis of how things should be. The interviewed developers expressed various concerns: first, calling this technology "DLSS 5" implies that Nvidia wants to make it a standard, so it is seen as an imposition. Furthermore, the whole thing is perceived as very disrespectful towards the artistic direction chosen by the author.
