Oh, he’s very in touch.

With the AI money machine that keeps on printing money and that’s all that matters this and any other CEO in today’s world.

True. I mean we can’t exactly expect the CEO of an AI company to admit his AI tool produces AI slop. Got to think about shareholder value after all.

I don’t think developers and artists have a choice when they’re being told by the publishers to do it.

All of this upscaling when it was presented over a decade ago was to give older cards a longer lease in life and now it’s morphed into the mandatory way to get a stable framerate since developers can now just rely on DLSS and to a lesser extent FSR to get them to a acceptable framerate instead of optimization.

As for how will this improve the gaming experience? I honestly don’t see it at this point. Back when it was the original goal, sure, now with this “Chat GPT moment for graphics”, I see it only beneficial for corporate parasites and “shareholder value” as we wave good bye to artistic vision as everything goes to looking like AI only fans.

Well the last time that was done we ended up with the GTA trilogy mess with AI upscaling/remastering.

Great the new SLAI.

A great step in the right direction if you ask me.

I mean honestly yeah, I’m not going to waste my time with some junior developer who can’t explain how the code works and how it interacts with whatever framework I’m working on. I ain’t got time for that nonsense, especially when the code I deal with involves safety critical sections of code.

Honestly if my work ever decided to allow unfettered AI code generation into my code base, I would immediately look for a new job at that point.

Well that’s going to make your senior developers quit.

So, I’m a Cantonese speaker and watching films sub vs dub, I want to say that it really doesn’t matter if your reading the subtitles or having a English voice over, there are just certain nuances that you’re not going to get because of any type of translation.

Best way I can describe it would be the English meaning of -ish when it comes to time. It’s kind of casual, implying that it means I’m not committing to a set time and when you translate it to something in Cantonese, that sense of casual isn’t quite there.

I think that’s where this guy is coming from in a bit of a dick-ish way.

I guess we’ll see how that goes come September timeframe.

A PC where I can’t install what I want? WTF is the point of that bullshit.

Thanks but I’ll stick to my steam deck for my portable Linux computing needs where I can do what the hell I want.
