AI in Gaming: How DLSS Transforms Graphics and Performance
A few years back, NVIDIA introduced a series of graphics cards that came with a couple of rather groundbreaking ideas for the time. The first of the two was ray tracing, a technology that literally simulates the physics of light instead of relying on cheap tricks to achieve more lifelike illumination. NVIDIA was so confident in this endeavor that they even changed the name of their graphics cards from GTX to RTX in honor of Ray Tracing. However, they also introduced another, less flashy technology that garnered a bit more attention over time: DLSS, a technique aimed at making games run smoother using artificial intelligence.
