One thing I noticed is that a lot of AI “art” is shiny and colorful, which looks appealing to people who know nothing about art. Specifically with DLSS5 I saw some people saying they liked it because of how shiny it made things. Have they never experienced reality before? Since when is everything super shiny? Also you really do not at all need AI to make a material more shiny or colorful. That can be done already very easily and it was the artists’ choice to not do that because they know what they’re doing.


As a new grad, I honestly feel like AI output is worse. It gets stuff wrong pretty frequently and even I, as a new grad, at least know enough to notice when it is wrong. These days I don’t use it at all, cause reading the docs is faster and also more accurate (and also cause of all the other issues with AI too).
Execs are desperate to get a return on their investment into AI, which is the only reason they push it so hard, and eventually the slop is gonna blow up in their faces.
