AMD plans for FSR4 to be fully AI-based — designed to improve quality and maximize power efficiency

fully AI-based
Okay, so it's just a marketing scheme, not an actual new and improved product. Got it!

It depended on who use that word: your average CEO ala Elon Musk or TikTok's short... totally pointless crap to catch people interest.
Nvidia, Intel, AMD? That's a bit of different story, isn't?
Actually its using whats now called "ai" tech that nvidia's dlss is so much better than fsr
People tend to forget that DLSS use physical, hardware taking, space on the material board. This mean that if you don't use DLSS, a portion of the GPU you paid for is unused.
Whenever you use, or not use, FSR... you can always reach the theoretical 100% of your GPU.
People legit forget the DL in DLSS means deep learning which is a machine learning technique, so it’s also AI
AI hype being 99% bullshit doesn't mean machine learning doesn't have its actual use cases. CG is one of them
"Gotta reboot, console is hallucinating."
I thought I was playing Star Wars but there is Spock.
About time. Maybe they will finally be able to compete with DLSS and XeSS in terms of quality.
I guess this means it won't work on older cards. I wonder if this will work on Nvidia cards too or if it'll be AMD-only tech.
itll more likely go into the XeSS route with alternative code path
My guess is it'll work on any RTX card and on RX 5000 and up in 'full' mode
I'd argue 7000s series and up since they actually have AI cores on the board. Any sort of AI crap on the previous generations is such a hassle that I doubt they'll support them.
I couldn't get a good understanding if AI will only be used for Frame Generation (which I'm not so enthusiastic about, with its latency and quality issues) or for upscaling too (that I'm quite a fan of).
Both probably, thats what nvidia does
Well, no upscaling yet, it seems: https://www.pcgamer.com/hardware/graphics-cards/amd-is-set-to-finally-join-nvidia-with-fsr-4-using-ai-to-power-frame-generation-though-no-word-on-upscaling-yet/
Now it sounds just like AI fluff to me.
Frame gen is a real, legitimate technology people use, its not ai fluff.
