Cyberpunk 2077 gets AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution 3 with Frame Generation
Cyberpunk 2077 fans on Linux desktop and Steam Deck might be quite happy about this latest update which adds in some new performance features.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I tested it during yesterday on Linux. FSR3 is actually slower for low FPS scenarios (raytracing 30fps) but amazing for +60fps scenarios.
Much better resolution and frametimes. The frame generation option feels lile butter.
Also, the dynamic resoluton option of FSR3 doesn't impact frametimes negatively anymore like FSR2. Which is amazing.
"The machine also dealt with its human interlocutors in polite and empathetic terms, in contrast to the scorn sometimes heaped on conspiracy theorists in real life."
Fascinating (but pay-walled) article on how chat #AI can influence people away from conspiracy beliefs. Humans are messy and subjective. Is an opaque summary machine more reliable and more engaging when it comes to discerning truths?

#PPOD: This stunning photograph captures the most violent moment during an eruption of the Calbuco volcano in Chile. Volcanic lightning occurs in the plumes of eruptions when volcanic ash particles collide, generating static electricity. Additionally, water vapor in the plume condenses and freezes as it rises, adding ice to the mix. And voila! The eventual electrical discharge causes lightning.

Every company is going to use AI, both traditional machine learning or generative AI. Articles decrying this is like articles complaining about companies making products in factories with machines instead of by hand.
