it can breathe new life into older RTX 20-series and RTX 30-series GPUs

Man they already call these cards old and slow while i am still beating everything out of my gtx950

[–] AnUnusualRelic@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

I wonder if those patches still work in Linux.

But everyone here on Lemmy keeps telling me that AI is literally the devil? It's suddenly cool and ok if we use it for better performance in games?

[–] BruceTwarzen@kbin.social 35 points 1 year ago (4 children)

There aren't any people who manually generate frames who's jobs get cut.

[–] arefx@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 year ago

Nvidia is making great use of AI with their GPUs imo. Dlss 3.5 is impressive. Frame Gen is impressive.

[–] QuaternionsRock@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Haven’t people been blaming DLSS for encouraging publishers to release poorly-optimized games, though?

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago

Yes, the job it’s taking isn’t frame generation

It’s optimization jobs but more to what people don’t like; they are investing in this instead of better hardware

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 3 points 1 year ago

If your job was cut because of AI your job was already replaceable. People still have to know how to effectively utilize the tech. Learn it and adapt like humans have done with every increase in automation.

On-device AI is not bad. If you can do tricks to actually improve things with AI, it is a tool like any other.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 9 points 1 year ago

Stable diffusion is also on device but everyone here calls that bad. Trust me I'm with you on this but the hypocrisy of a large portion of the people I interact with on here is palpable.

"... Everyone here on [the instances startrek.website federated with and communities I subscribe to on] Lemmy ..."

This sort of generalization was already ignorant on Reddit, but it is doubly ignorant on the fediverse.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

It's an accurate generalization. This isn't my only account. The larger technology communities are rampant with this thinking and you can even see it here in this thread.

[–] SuperSpruce@lemmy.zip 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's because all the AI craze these days are ChatGPT clones tacked onto other existing products, where all processing is done on the cloud. Here, having "AI" is the entire point of it, with no regard for if it actually improves anything. It's a solution in search of a problem.

In contrast, some products use AI as a means to an end. This distinction is important, because the focus is on the end result and AI is just a tool to achieve it. Here, it's a solution to a problem.

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 1 points 1 year ago

Just because you don't understand the problem solved doesn't mean there isn't one.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s replacing one ai with a better ai so it’s neutral

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago

It's a net positive, as are things like SD based models.

[–] WeLoveCastingSpellz@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

It is a very piwerful tool and what matyers is it's usecase

[–] Daxtron2@startrek.website 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a great tool but it's still generative image ai. If you're fine with this but not with things like stable diffusion then you're a hypocrite

I mean I am fine with stable diffusion after relising that intellectual property is a lie

[–] PenguinTD@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 year ago

Newer fluid motion thing does work for older and card though. But FSR3 would be better cause it has direct frame buffer information.

[–] GrindingGears@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Wonder if I can sell that 2070 that's collecting dust in my closet...
