Check out  OptiScaler_DLSSNR! It is a tool that lets you replace upscalers in games that already support DLSS2+ / FSR2+ / XeSS as well as manage frame generation in already mentioned games (either by replacing existing FG options or enabling it in DX12 games through experimental OptiFG).

Everything gets a remaster! #DLSS5 is (mostly) AMAZING! #DLSS Swapper is a tool that allows you to conveniently download, manage, and swap DLSS, FSR and XeSS dlls allowing you to upgrade or downgrade DLSS, FSR and XeSS version in a game without the game needing an update.

Played #Homeworld when it came out in 1999 and it blew my lil star trek brain. It put its battles in open space rather than on a map. This is that game running natively on #Quest, in stereo, with the fleet in full virtual reality, around you.

The #hyperscalers are toast. For anyone in doubt, read this. We need many fewer #datacenters than we think. If we can already replace 70% to 80% of the tasks that are expected to run on #LLMs with #SLMs.

If this is true, the hyperscalers are toast
In my regular research (behind a paywall), I have been saying for a while that I think the future of AI is not large language models (LLM), but small language models (SLM) run on local desktop computers or even mobile phones.
