Nvidia's new DLSS 5 Brings Photo-Realistic Lighting To RTX 50-Series

A massive technological leap for graphics - and we've been hands-on with four games.

How is the removal of shadows considered to be better lighting in any way?
Yeah i was thinking that, using the comparison tool i was able to see it better and it completely ruined the atmosphere in the first image. The image without DLSS5 looks darker and personally i think it looks better like that, DLSS5 then just completely removes that darkness and makes it look awful.
In one scene from Starfield DLSS just removes the shadow from the baseball cap bill and replaced it with a soft shadow. That’s not “realistic lighting”, that’s a smear filter with extra steps.
Could you give me a link to that?
It’s in the digital foundry video above at 5:30.
