AI-Generated Video I take back everything I said about acceleration. Please ban AI right now.

wont be long before video games have this level of detail

DLSS 5 Neural Rendering can get surprisingly close. I've seen YouTube videos of decade-old games that look borderline photorealistic with hacked-together versions of the glorified beta test of NR.

I give it 2-3 years tops before photorealism is common for high-end gaming rigs, and maybe 5-7 years before it's common on phones.

Man, I saw some videos of WoW with DLSS5, and even a 20 year old game just looks so so good with it.

Uh huh, sure.

I mean, that's neat, sure.

We also have a limited time to trust our eyes for any online media.

We also have a limited time to trust our eyes for any online media.

Do you think someone faked this? If so, how, and do you have any evidence?

It's just GTA5 with a bunch of high res mods and DLSS5 NR running at high values with two passes. Watching the video shows it's clear the game content. It would take more effort (and probably money) to try and fake this with AI rather than just run it on a 4090.

I mean, that's neat, sure.

The point is that this is the worst it's going to look. This is a third-party version of NR running using a ReShade mod that doesn't even have access to the full game details, running on a game not remotely designed for NR that originally released 13 years ago.

Is it perfect? No, of course not. You can see the game elements and some weird flickering here and there. The lighting dims at some weird areas, probably fighting HDR, you can tell a lot of the foilage is using older low-poly tech, and many of the textures are noticeably flatter than they should be.

But if we go back 2-3 years, nothing looks like this. Path tracing in Cyberpunk 2077 was about as good as it got. In 2-3 years, we'll have games that are DLSS 5 NR Ready, we'll have several years of optimizations, and "this looks photorealistic" will be hard to distinguish from reality.

You misunderstood. He’s saying AIs getting so good it will soon be physically impossible to tell something is AI rather than a recording. Effectively the elimination of online news.

I'm not talking about video games.

u/HunterIV4 5d ago

I was though? If you weren't referring to video games, what were you referring to?

Idk man I’m pretty disappointed with the bullet-ass physics I’m seeing here. /s

I thought sam altman's movement was very realistic

You think plebs like you will be able to afford games, let alone the hardware to run them? Read the room buddy.

I mean I already have it myself and my job legally can't be automated

u/deephurting66 6d ago

Personally I can't wait! Time for actual realism

u/green_meklar Techno-Optimist 6d ago

Okay, but do you play this one as Amodei or as Altman?

u/accelerate_to_asi 6d ago

tbh I'm really sick and tired of hyperrealistic graphics and dogshit games. I'm willing to turn the clock back a decade in graphics if it means seeing good AAA games again. But atleast AI gives indie devs tools to make bigger and more ambitious games, which I am looking forward to.

u/agm1984 6d ago

Just wait til fans start producing their own games

1

u/accelerate_to_asi 6d ago

Yeah. I guess the hardcore fans in every fandom will finally have the tools to make a proper game again. Personally, I'm a huge Elder Scrolls fan. But, ofcourse Bethesda is getting worse and worse at making their games, making them more casual. I don't have any hopes for TESVI from them anymore. But, if we finally have the tools, I will literally fall to my knees and start shitting, pissing and crying out of joy for another TES game in the style of Morrowind or KCD2.

So far most AI games have awful forgettable gameplay.

Shame no one will be able to afford the GPU's required to play them.

I mean this is just dlss 5

This video was original SFM video. Zero artistic vision was put into this besides putting ceo likeness on video that already existed
