Intel's Open Image Denoise 2.5 Delivers Solid Performance Improvements For GPUs

Intel's Open Image Denoise is the open-source project providing a high performance denoising library for ray-tracing and used by the likes of Blender and other renderers/creative apps for powerful denoising capabilities

La raison : https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/152131

Incompatibilité entre hip installé sur linux (7.1.1) et le hip avec lequel a été compilé #OpenImageDenoise dans #Blender (6.4)

Et là, __c'est le drame__ !

L'astuce donnée ici https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/154232#issuecomment-1846779 fonctionne parfaitement ! 🥳

Récupérer les sources OIDN (compilée avec hip 7) et remplacer libOpenImageDenoise_device_hip.so.<ver> dans le répertoire blender/lib.

Et tout retombe dans l'ordre.

Is using #OpenImageDenoise inside of #Blender3d evil because it is #AI ?

Is Using Blender's Denoiser Evil?

There is a war between artists and Artificial Intelligence people. AI is primarily useful today to those people who want to avoid the hassle of doing something impressive, while still maintaining an image of impressiveness. Artists, on the other hand, who's whole being is in grinding themselves into true impressiveness are not satisfied with AI being used to replace their labor with cheap, algorithmic knock-offs. One such machine learning algorithm, though, had found its way into millions of artist's work-flows, which they don't seem to care much about. And I'm talking about the Intel's Open Image Denoise found inside of Blender.

#AI like #openimagedenoise used for de-noising path-traced renders such as #b3d #cycles . Is it an ethical use for #AI ? Or is it as controversial as #generativeart / #AIart ?
I think this use case is okay
100%
No AI should be allowed anywhere
