This is an incredibly ignorant thing to say. I've already gone into this with Curl earlier in the thread so won't go in depth again here but there are tons of useful applications of the technology, including in extremely important areas like the medical field. 

I have to agree. There were plenty of people against industrial revolution and computing revolution, as well. Some of people are afraid of change. There's no way to progress if the humanity won't experiment and try new things. That's natural part of growth IMO.

Anyway, returning to the topic. DLSS 5 in current form is no longer an upscaling tech, but something like the re-renderer. Even I, a great supporter of GeForce brand dislike the way how Nvidia promotes this tech. They should rename neural rendering tech a new thing like Reflex is, which is a part of tech stack of RTX brand.

Right the technology clearly has massive potential and is already quite powerful so if someone has a big issue with how it's being used right now the best thing to do is push for reasonable regulation. This isn't my exact viewpoint but pushing for some sort of public ownership of AI systems to make it so this society warping technology isn't largely in the hands of certain companies and billionaires and that humanity at large can benefit from it on their own terms is the type of position that should be more common than it is.

Agreed.  Advances in cancer research will take leaps and bounds because of AI.  AI will advance multiple areas of science and there will be massive benefits.  I am using it quite a lot now.  
That is completely right. The advancements in medical research and scientific research in general will be immense. Even self driving cars becoming the norm alone will save a lot of lives and prevent a ton of injuries every year. For my usage I'm increasingly using it as a Google substitute and lately there's often cases where it saves me some time of having to look through a bunch of search results.

Saying somebody is ignorant if they disagree with you is uncalled for and not helpful.

It's not an ignorant statement cause he disagrees, it's an ignorant statement cause it's completely false. The evidence is so overwhelming of the benefits of the technology that implying that all the investment in it isn't leading to anything useful is flat earth level ignorance at this point and should get called out.
