AI and the Future of Graphics – Excited or Worried?

Hey all!

I just came across an interesting article where NVIDIA’s CEO, Jensen, talks about how AI is becoming essential for next-gen computer graphics. Basically, instead of computing every single pixel, they’re now using AI to predict and infer pixels, which apparently speeds up the rendering process and could lead to better graphics in future games.

I’m kinda torn though – is relying so heavily on AI for graphics really the best move? While it sounds like a huge leap forward, part of me worries that games could lose that human touch in design and feel more formulaic.

'We can't do computer graphics anymore without artificial intelligence. We compute one pixel, we infer the other 32': Jensen thinks AI is integral to next-gen graphics tech

It's easy to dunk on AI, but when it comes to practical use cases, he may have a point.

AI could speed up rendering, but what happens to the artistry of designing? I fear games might start to feel too perfect, almost mechanical. There's a reason why some flaws in graphics make games feel alive.
 
I think the potential here is huge! AI can handle the grunt work of rendering and predict things faster, freeing up human designers to focus on the creative aspects. Imagine being able to develop huge, intricate worlds without worrying about the performance trade-offs. Sure, some fear it could make graphics feel “robotic,” but with the right balance, it could enhance immersion while still allowing for that artistic touch. As long as AI is used to assist, not replace, I’m all for it.
 
I think AI can revolutionize graphics, but it shouldn’t replace human oversight. We still need that creative touch.
