A hot r/gamernews post is spotlighting Tom's Hardware coverage of Jensen Huang's response to DLSS 5 criticism, as Nvidia simultaneously positions the feature as a fall 2026 neural-rendering upgrade backed by major publishers including Bethesda, CAPCOM, Ubisoft, and Warner Bros. Games.
GamesRadar says Jensen Huang told Lex Fridman he understands the criticism around Nvidia's DLSS 5 demos and that he does not love “AI slop” either, framing the tech as an artist-controlled generative AI tool.
After strong criticism of Starfield footage shown with Nvidia's DLSS 5, Bethesda says its art teams will keep adjusting the lighting and final look and that the feature will remain optional for players.
The latest DLSS 5 backlash has shifted from aesthetics to process after Insider Gaming reported that partner developers at studios including CAPCOM and Ubisoft said they learned about the tech at the same time as the public.
Nvidia's March 16, 2026 DLSS 5 reveal drew a widely shared critique from Digital Foundry's John Linneman, who praised the environmental lighting upside while warning that the character rendering looked far too invasive.
