A future version of AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution will leverage AI as part of its upscaling pipeline, according to new statements made by Mark Papermaster, CTO (and EVP) at AMD. Papermaster, who shared the news during an episode of the No Priors podcast last week, suggested that it could come out as early as this year, putting FSR closer in line with how NVIDIA DLSS works.
Papermaster said:
2024 is a giant year for us because we spent so many years in our hardware and software capabilities for AI. We have just completed AI enabling our entire portfolio, so you know, cloud, edge, PCs, and our embedded devices and gaming devices. We are enabling our gaming devices to upscale using AI, and 2024 is really a huge deployment year. So now the bedrock’s there, the capabilities are there. …2024, is, for us, a huge deployment.
