Nvidia is officially bringing DLSS 5 to older GPUs — RTX 40-series (4090 down to 4070). RTX 30 and 20-series are out; not enough AI horsepower (an RTX 3080 reportedly hit just 1 FPS with it on).
But there's a catch: gamers only get a simple on/off toggle. All the good stuff — model selection, structure intensity, tone intensity, masking — stays locked to developers only.
Nvidia's own line: this is a "phased" rollout — RTX 50-series first (fall 2026), then 40-series once that's tuned.
Translation: you'll get the upgrade, just not the steering wheel.

Created this x.crop hero with the Vision Engine 🤍
Vision Engine : samples your media into a live grid of pixel values, the classic computer vision teardown, live. Numbers float over your photo, trace its edges, flag detections, or stand alone as pure data.
Pick a preset and it runs. No code.

Built a 3D model viewer inside @Rive .
Not a plugin, not an embed — an actual glTF renderer running on @Rive 's GPU Canvas, written in Luau and WGSL, living inside the .riv file.
Drop in a .glb and it loads, lights, animates and orbits. Every control is a data-bound property, so the whole scene is drivable from a state machine, a timeline, or app code. Nothing is hardcoded to one model.
What's in it:
• glTF parsing written from scratch — Luau has no JSON library, so the decoder is hand-rolled
• PBR shading (Cook-Torrance GGX) with key/fill/rim lighting
• Skeletal skinning, 128-joint palette
• Rigid node animation with full keyframe interpolation
• Orbit camera with per-axis locks
• Auto-fit, so any model frames correctly regardless of authored scale
• ~40 data-bound properties: camera, transform, material, animation
Most of it was built by driving the Rive editor over its MCP server with Claude Code — scripted, not clicked.
Runtime support is nearly there. GPU Canvas landed in the web runtime last week. A couple of scripting APIs still need to follow before this can ship to a live site.

Very impressive work! 😍
