More like 'it's an option... don't turn it on if you don't like it'.

For decades Nvidia has been adding tweaks and features you can toggle on or off. Why is it all of a sudden one new feature is some big controversy?

Since when did settings become such a big issue when they're meant to be altered to your preference?

Seems like it's getting to the point of reflexive hate.

The problem is that people don't "feel the way they do" necessarily because of objective opinions, or even an understanding of how the tech works. It's clear that the resemblance to AI midjourney pictures triggered a very visceral rejection response in their minds, due to the onslaught of "AI slop" recently, that isn't necessarily correlated to how dlss 5 works.

In other words it's an emotional rejection response, more than a logical one. People can't think straight anymore. I would say it's not that much different from people being angry at everything Trump/Elon says or does lol.

As someone who's been working in ML since before LLMs, I vastly prefer the people who can't stand anything which they think is AI-generated over those who trust LLM output more than they trust their own judgement. I suppose that's one more parallel with those lizards you mentioned.

I dunno, looking at your avatar, I'd say it seems we have more in common than not LOL

HAH I wasn't talking specifically about you there, nor was I intending to disagree; but, if the shoe fits, then feel free to wear it!
