NVIDIA's marketing department promised DLSS would enhance graphics quality, but apparently nobody told them it shouldn't work backwards. The "without DLSS5" shot shows the classic low-poly Lara Croft from 1996 looking relatively smooth, while "with DLSS5" somehow manages to make her face even more angular and aggressive—like the AI tried to "enhance" the polygons by making them fight each other.
DLSS (Deep Learning Super Sampling) is supposed to use AI to upscale lower-resolution images to higher resolutions while maintaining quality. But slapping cutting-edge AI upscaling tech on a game that was built with like 230 polygons total is the equivalent of using a neural network to enhance a stick figure drawing—you're just gonna get a really detailed stick figure that somehow looks worse.
The real joke here is that no amount of machine learning can save those 1996-era triangle counts. Some things are better left in their original pixelated glory.
