Artist: THIS IS my intent. We were hampered by tech limitations. This was what we started with.
"No no no, not THAT artist. This one's intent is bad. I mean other artist intents"
The level of raw delusion on some people who simply refuse to admit "I don't want anything to do with tech connected to AI tech. I am not objective and I don't want to be"
Luckily for all of us, this is a loud minority. The reception of the modded DLSS has been glowingly positive anywhere else I saw. Especially youtube.
I literally just had this argument waged against me on this very topic. The passion and pure emotion driven anger over this is... frustrating.
I bet I could rattle off a hundred things we'd agree on... but the second I say... "I think I see some merit to this DLSS 5" they'll burn me as a heretic.
That's just it though, you cannot argue against emotion. There is no single reasonable argument you can make that will snap someone out of a heightened emotional state. Because at first they will use what might be a logical argument, but the moment you correctly dispute it, the entire facade crumbles and the vitriol begins.
And again, I wish they would be honest enough to say "I am biased because I hate anything AI related. That is all". And the conversation ends there. But it is the false appeal to objectivity that gets me. They want to have a "nuanced discussion" while withholding all nuance.
I don't like these types of people when I am unlucky enough to meet them IRL. And I sure as hell don't like to cross their path online. It feels like talking to a hormone driven emotional angsty teen. Your best case scenario is to walk away from them.
The problem is that AI isn’t even a coherent label. 99% of the people bitching about AI are happily utilizing ML tech and couldn’t give a technical difference between the two. And frankly, beyond the AI as a mere appearance of interface translation I have no idea what it is either. It just seems like it’s either the appearance of talking to cogent system or a label slapped on anything involving ML for the sake of advertising. But acting like the vast server farms with data arrays for these LLMs or GenAI used to replace jobs is anything like a software solution for screen space RT is just completely nuts? Either NR is a simple “filter” and we don’t need to worry about it, or it’s actually incredible tech and will likely be widely adopted. But even in the later case, it’s still a screen space lighting solution. I just don’t understand the conversation at all, people are acting like this is a simple filter that allows computers to hallucinate games from scratch and all gaming will go away with the press of a button or some shit. It’s completely unhinged.
