“Well, first of all, they’re completely wrong,” Huang said in response to a question from Tom’s Hardware editor-in-chief Paul Alcorn about the criticism.
“The reason for that is because, as I have explained very carefully, DLSS 5 fuses controllability of the of geometry and textures and everything about the game with generative AI,” Huang continued.
Just a elongated way to say AI slop.
Are we also wrong about needing 2 5090s for this slop?
I know his lordship doesn’t share the same reality as the rest of us peasants, but I can’t even afford one 5090…
Gamers are wrong because, as I’ve explained very carefully, it uses AI.

No, no…you see, it’s the children who are wrong.
Companies telling the consumer what they want and how to see things. Without the buyer the seller is worthless.

This has been the modus operandi for apple since it’s foundation more or less…one of the most successfull companies around right now.
There’s definitely some validity to it. There’s the old saying credited to Ford I believe: “if you asked people what they wanted they would’ve said faster horses”. But at the same time doing things different doesn’t mean you’re right. Sometimes we just want the fries in the bag.

Telling the customer their opinions are wrong about a product has never backfired, ever…
Doesn’t he have a phone?
I think “changing artistic intent” is actually a pretty spot-on way to describe it. Hardware makers are insane I guess.
No he’s right, it’s not just a slop filter…
That goes on top of what devs intended, this happens before the GPU makes anything, and devs will need to basically code two versions of every game or have the “default” we saw in the showcase.
Like, that’s the real part Huang is out of touch on, he’s desperately trying to explain to people it’s worse than most people think, and for some reason he thinks it’s better.
It’s not a “gravy of slop” poured on top of an artistic intent, it’s forcing the option to bake the slop in, so devs have to choose to ignore it or devote resources to something only brand new Nvidia gpus can support, and not everyone will want to enable.
The intent is likely trying to force upgrades if/when AAA games start to only care about DLSS 5 graphics because that’s cheaper to develop.
If anything, consumers are under-reacting to how bad this is
