That’s rather depressing to hear. AI is often used as a crutch used to pave over crappy code that would cost money to properly optimize. Maybe Nvidia is also using AI as a crutch instead of developing better GPUs that can actually render more pixels?
Usually people are against just throwing more hardware at a problem.
They’re going to keep making more powerful hardware either way, since parallel processing capability supports graphics and AI just fine. But if they can use a novel software solution to drastically increase performance, why not?

It’s not quite as simple as that. AI needs less precision than regular graphics, so chips developed with AI in mind do not necessarily translate into higher performance for other things.
In science/engineering, people want more—not less—precision. So we look for GPUs with capable 64-bit processing, while AI is driving the industry in the other direction, from 32 down to 16.

For science and engineering, workstation cards like the A6000 aren’t going anywhere.
That’s true, but I would like to see improvements driven along the consumer segment also. AI rendering is a nice software addition but I could easily see it becoming a distraction from hardware improvements.
Consumers generally can’t just throw more money at a problem in the way that professional and business can.
Fuck off Nvidia.
You better look for a new job then and let someone tale over who can, then.
Lazy CEOs just don’t want to work anymore!
Yes they cant. Dlss is something they developed and every single one of their GPU has cuda cores ( not only for ai , they are just generaly usefull ). Pepole are expecting them to work with dlss. Its kinda stating the obvius
