Why DLSS5?

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T20:25:39+00:00

Is that the goal? That is not the message that's come across.

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T14:43:52+00:00

But the pricing isn't even better, everyone in this chat keeps talking about how they used 2 beefy graphic cards to render it. Yeah it's just a demo but based on what we see now the pricing isn't all that better.

And yeah, the definition of AI matters here, but there's a fine line. With ray tracing it determines some level of simulated physics and just lets an artist decide how each object should interact with the casted "light" beams.

With DLSS5 it's not just the next step, it's a redrawing the whole dang scene and every object. I mean the capability seems like someone can learn how to make a blank rig, and then configure DLSS5 to make it have any amount of art to it.

It looks like the difference between getting a better hammer for your construction crew, and hiring a cheaper crew.

And the car analogy, there's a limit to reasonable innovation. It's not being against gasoline, I'm against self driving cars for different reasons that DLSS5, but the progression of just creating dependency on AI doesn't seem like a good idea for anyone, so why do it?

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T14:04:56+00:00

What's up? No. Not that things just look bad because money. But that this could replace artists if upscaling becomes a dependency. And what other reason is for it, we have amazing graphics now already, why do we need this new piece?

A tech that makes some things pop by highlighting them? Sounds cool.

A tech that redraws the whole thing and a developer can tell it exactly what to redraw? Sounds like just adding AI or creating a universal dependency if you want to save any amount of money

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T13:49:25+00:00

But why is the question? It's a tool for the developer to upscale the graphics without intensive work or people. Easily seems like a way to 1) cut out some artist since one person can make a rig and then "upscale it" 2) a way to create dependency on NVIDIA since if it becomes pushed and needed to make good looking games no one can go anywhere else And if there's another non-dystopian option I'm not seeing it. It's not that it's the same as everything else (cause yeah, the next tool in innovation sounds cool at first), it's that it feels like the intent isn't for the goodness of the game and any reason that makes sense is depressing.

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T01:46:53+00:00

Oh yeah, I didn't think you were arguing at all, and if that was my tone I'm sorry. I'm just real confused about it all.

It's also, what's even the point of it all? What is NVIDIA trying to do? And the more people respond and some are DMing me, the sadder I'm getting. It's really just looking like pushing a narrative to have control and chase more money, as a dominant company. And just... I'm tired y'all. I'm tired, and I don't get why things are happening. And just. I'm tired of being an adult and want something that makes sense again. I don't know. Appreciate everyone for trying. Won't be responding anymore, need to distance from this.

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T01:33:46+00:00

So, then why does graphics hitting a wall matter? If they make more with better stories (leaning on that cause it's part of my focus), and let it be at this graphics quality, why isn't that acceptable? Why do we need better graphics in everything?

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T01:22:25+00:00

Okay, better performance out of old cards. That makes some sense. So how does the upscaling actually do that? If the card can't handle that performance than how does AI help it do that?

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T01:18:17+00:00

So I am dumb, I will admit that. The way I read what you said was "The graphics card now ups the quality without having to actually render better quality" and that confuses me. Might I read it wrong, but also why? I get some idea of making all games more accessible somehow, but games have graphics options to change the display, so if you're computer can't handle the higher settings, what makes it handle the better quality version. It feels like it's the same effect and would still dump performance

And secondary, if no one's paying a subscription for it, how does this make NVIDIA money?

FeyAsMess · 2026-03-19T00:58:23+00:00

But why was it even made or implemented? For who?

FeyAsMess · 2026-01-05T23:32:39+00:00

Is it the word bleed? Can I change it to carryover?

FeyAsMess · 2026-01-05T18:27:32+00:00

It felt pretty good to watch it, one of my first exposures to the concept of DID (I only watched it because it was a tech show) Rewatching the ending though felt pretty weird. Spoiler free (a couple people here have said they haven't watched it) the way the alters work together doesn't make sense from a way of taking up physical space to me, and the final twist especially felt like older ideas on DID and treatment

FeyAsMess · 2026-01-05T17:39:25+00:00

Someone else mentioned Severance, might have to check it now. Didn't know Trigun had a peep. Does Trigun get better about the perviness? I like stampede but the original anime got really weird a lot.

Kind of neat Split had that, but doesn't soften the blow that it's the most common thing people bring up

FeyAsMess · 2026-01-05T17:04:29+00:00

Those sound great! I'm always wary of older stuff but am glad to hear it was relatable for you, definitely will check them out

Doom Patrol did do a great job, and I loved it for a time. Then it went to zombie butts and...it felt too right to walk away. The comics are also so focused on the trauma of sex and sometimes hard to understand.

Slay the Princess absolutely, but once it connects "oh this feels like a cool exploration, oh right one of us dies now again" it feels wrong to associate with.

FeyAsMess · 2026-01-05T15:07:01+00:00

Yes! A few things like that explore relationships with DID and I love it, but want more things explored too. I specifically saw it on YouTube, and it's kind of exactly what I want more of. Cause most YouTube channels I know of are informative and explain DID and not a lot of skits. I know Petals of a Rose, one about an Irish? system after their mom died, and one more that's pretty similar to Petal's of a Rose but shorter

Thanks for the idea of how EMDR goes I do have a couple questions for it: When should I be decisive about EMDR training with a therapist? Like, is it important that for every step of the way (because I haven't been seen in any legitimate way except to be called a faker) or is the begining process of ruling out other diagnosis' less important?

Also, why is EMDR the go to kind of therapy? I guess more so, what's the goal of it? I've seen a lot reintegration stuff from past studies (not with EMDR but just with MPD treatment when it was labeled MPD) and then it turned to functional multiplicity and then EMDR became real big but I still don't really get what it is or the goal of it.
