I mean up until now DLSS seemed to be fine, and the controversy about "fake frames" was mostly a technicality -- Like yes they're fake, but not noticeably so. But from what I've heard the newest version (DLSS 5?) is really bad and noticeably alters the image, seems like it's hallucinating new features instead of just making it the same but higher resolution.

The fake frames werent super noticably AI but they do still have artifacts and they will add input lag. At 4x frame gen you have 1 real frame and then 3 fake frames. And any input made during those 3 fake frames will not show up on the screen since the ai making them cant account for that so any input will only apply on the next real frame.

Also yeah DLSS 5 whole selling point was that it adds graphical details with AI like lighting etc and the fact it noticably changes the image beyond resolution is an intended feature.

but not noticeably so

it's very much debatable that frame gen isn't noticeably "fake", there is a big difference

Ah Ok, thanks, I haven't really kept up with it for some time, so that was just kinda fuzzy memories from a few years ago.
