10 days agoI’ve noticed a trend already with tech reviewers trying to sell that, actually massive AI upscaling and fake AI frames are actually a good thing! And they’re now this new metric Nvidia pulled out it’s ass that reviewers at pointing to of line a supposed 80% of users, use DLSS. No days if Nvidia turned it on (via there crap 3rd party app), encouraged it to be in by default in games, etc. no mention how they got this telemetry data either, if it’s even real. I know I personally turn DLSS in all forms off.
I can’t help but feel like this $2000 card is now like an $800 card once you strip away the ‘AI’ bullshit.

Like a decade ago, they were promoting some fake science products on their channel. When was brought out to light that the products were fake, they never made a retraction. Instead they made videos about being the victims about being called out because the videos were promoting fake products. Ltt promoted hyperloop and Tellspec. I’m sure there’s more, but I can’t recall
