alt Hacker NewsHow useful is this without weights?
Isn't the mote that Nvidia has is they work with studios to generate the training data from the game, then they ship a model per game?
Or is my knowledge outdated here and they're just using a single generalised model?

I assume this is meant to run with the weights people extracted from the latest NBA game, where it was first trialled.

That was true for the very first version of DLSS, from DLSS 2 on the models have been universal - the per-game adjustments are done on the inference end by changing the effect intensity or masking out objects
They have a technical report on the neural rendering part of DLSS 5 which goes into it: https://research.nvidia.com/labs/adlr/files/DLSS5_Report.pdf
They used to ship one model per game but now there is a single model, however they still do minor updates to it presumably to fine-tune it on new games
>they ship a model per game?
They don't. Only DLSS 1 was trained specifically per each game.
I don't really understand why the weights aren't included... US law says they can't have a copyright, no? Maybe they're concerned about other countries or cautious about a litigious Nvidia.
