NVIDIA at GTC 2026 announced its new DLSS 5 (Deep-Learned Super Sampling 5, aka Deep-Learned Super Slop) definitely-not-an-ai-slop-filter technology, with the company responding to overwhelming criticism from gamers by calling critics "completely wrong" about the technology. Likewise, NVIDIA doubled-up on its partnership with Palantir, something we'll cover more in a separate deep-dive into the topic (again).
