@Ronaldo8 That's actually pretty cool. If you're using full mip-chain with partial residency, use sampler feedback to find the correct mip level and then use ML to upscale the correct mip region/tile, so you don't even need to upscale the whole texture.

Ya...It kinds of all come together when you think about it.

I mentioned this before but whoever comes up with an even more clever version of “dlss” this gen will have a notable lead in visuals. It’ll be a race of tools and features development this gen that will create the gap.

Should probably split off ML stuff.
Here’s more.

Yeah, but it's even used that way in developer conferences. Seems to now be a standard part of the technology lexicon, though it smacks of marketing/ business speak.

Agreed.

I think part of why I'm practically allergic to it is that I've had to sit through plenty of meetings with sales reps and directors parroting stock phrases they don't comprehend, much less believe.

Seriously, whenever you detect a hint of mindless linguistic regurgitation, just ask them "yes, but what does the actually mean?" 9 times out of 10 they'll trot out some more stock phrases. The other 1 time, you'll get someone honest who says "not much, really."

well project griffin is now in a bigger internal test . So it looks like it will be ready for launch frame of xbox series x

Ok another guess .. Is it the 'click-to-play' links they just announced yesterday? Link to play xcloud games from facebook/instagram posts?

 

[AlNom]

They're transitioning on July 22 - maybe it's just in time for their 1st party show and to start beta test flights through xCloud?

Could be a good time to announce xcloud moving to an open beta with a fall release as part of game pass … mercury , xbox pc app and griffin will be ready by the fall

Maybe that's how MS is able to reach 2.4 GB/s of random read throughput?

Oh man I'm dying for XCloud on PC... And damn you and your mercury/griffin code names

Any other clues

 

[fehu]

griffin is nothing, just wait for pompeius

 

[iroboto]

No that’s for databases. Nothing to do with anything game related. But I suppose if you are using a B+ tree in your game, I suppose you could use this

It’s not that exciting. You’re unlikely to purchase it
