      i will not stop being mad about the "AI"-powered slop enhancertm that nvidia keeps trying to push harder and harder onto everything, using it as an excuse to gimp real GPU preformance when its literally useless to everyone but gamers leaving those of us who use 3d acceleration for non-gaming tasks with sub-par hardware

        most gamers also can't even afford these cards, and plenty of people don't like how DLSS/upscaling shit is making games look these days.

      There are many legitimate reasons to be mad about reliance on temporal anti-aliasing and DLSS. Even without leaving the realm of video games. They are being made worse because of it.

      not really, useful and cool technology becoming prohibitively expensive partly due to bazinga AI bullshit with niche use cases being tacked on is quite annoying. while there may be real performance arguments, a lot of people don't like how DLSS/upscaling shit makes modern games look, so it's arguable whether it's even an upgrade. and ultimately it's a niche use case for rich gamers that's being touted as the crux of the whole product.
