… It remains unclear, however, how far the FSR 4.1 integration will extend to handheld hardware. Whether the rollout includes frame generation support, the features that come with the "Redstone" ML suite and ray-tracing enhancements remains an open question for now. …
… It's still early days, but RapidRAW also outshines Adobe's suite with AI-powered inpainting options. I can use the built-in local AI tool without configuration for intelligent subject masking, isolating skies, or occluding the foreground with a single click. …
… Sure, it took a while to remove artifacting from DLSS 3, but it was still a full pipeline rethink, pairing AI with optical flow in a way that actually held up mid-motion. …
… While RTX GPUs will obviously benefit the most due to dedicated AI acceleration, the underlying technique can run on other architectures too, including AMD and Intel GPUs. That said, performance and efficiency will scale with hardware capability, of course. …
… My local LLM pipeline essentially runs for free even after you factor in the energy bills Besides preventing large companies from gaining access to my prompts and personal documents, the real benefit of this setup is that I don’t need to pay for cloud platforms anymore. …
… So the AI gave me the demo-able 20% in minutes, but the rest is what I'm now trying to drag out of it one bug at a time, and the AI was never going to write that part on its own. …
