DLSS 5's Yassify Face Filter Sparks Meme Frenzy

Nvidia’s DLSS 5 upscaling is being shown off with a so-called 'Yassify' filter that dramatically alters character faces, prompting a wave of memes and mixed reactions. While early demos suggest an AI-face-smoothing effect, the company notes that the examples aren’t necessarily representative of actual DLSS 5 output. Publishers remain optimistic about the rollout, with several games including Resident Evil Requiem, Starfield, Hogwarts Legacy, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered, and Assassin's Creed Shadows named as DLSS 5 supporters this fall. The reception so far could influence how quickly and how broadly the technology is adopted.
