Without knowing for sure we should not be giving data centers from giant corporations the benefit of the doubt.

DLSS models are not even in the same league as LLMs from a training perspective.
The comment section is full of people trying to use anti-LLM arguments against DLSS because they both use neural networks.
It’s like people are against matches because they’re hot and nuclear weapons are hot so matches are basically nuclear weapons.
