I’m no patent lawyer, but every graphic in that patent describes a 540p image being upscaled to a 1080p image. No mentions of a 2160p image, although I didn’t read the full text.

I suspect this feature is more intended to allow games like The Witcher 3 or Wolfenstein that output a really low resolution to present a better image.

Although, having tinkered with FSR3, I’m generally not impressed with AI upscaling at low source resolutions. I’ve heard DLSS does better in those conditions, but even at 1080p->4k there’s noticeable artifacts and temporal instability. I much prefer it at 1440p->4k. So I’m somewhat unsure how much I’d even want 1080p->4k, although I’d certainly try it and see, and I kinda think I don’t want 540p->1080p.

Shocking that anyone would believe, let alone publish that headline. It comes across as obviously false given the ultra-subjective and human nature of poetry.

Also, I ended up reading about six more blog posts, lol. You’re excellent at piecing together many disparate pieces into a cohesive whole, which is well supported by facts. I particularly liked your piece on “capture platforms”, and your whole blog was a good reminder regarding the power of the abstractions we make as developers. It’s easy to forget the importance of what we do and how it has real effects on the world.
