Man, AI devs really are only interested in finding uses for this stuff that pisses directly in everyones food bowls, huh? Its like they cant finish unless the project has massive fundamental ethical problems
That’s kind of crazy, and once it’s “trained” there’s no way this could be detected.
maybe by randomly taking screen caps? But depending how that works, it might not capture it. You’d have to take an actual screenshot of the game, not just catch a frame from the GPU.
Definitely not worth it, but it’s crazy it was made.
If its an overlay on the screen itself and not on the computer-side, theres just no way to detect it, as the ocerlay is not there when the image leaves the graphics card. Thats at least what the article describes.
The only way to prevent players from using this would be to exclude players using this specific monitor alltogether, regardless if they are having this function activated or not.
If you have a 4K display, you can still have that display accept a 1080p signal. You can do this because the GPU isn't controlling the display. It's merely sending an image to the display 60 (or 120, or 144, etc) times a second. This passes through a chip that's part of the display that is able to turn that feed into the signals to each sub pixel and tell them how bright to be. Monitors generally don't really process much, but TVs often do additional processing to (in theory) make the image look better. This is the level this MSI display is going to be processing and adjusting the image at. (I've glossed over a lot of details here, and am not pretending I understand all of them. But in broad strokes, this is what's happening)
Screen captures by your computer don't see any of the adjustments your display makes. They just see the image you send to the display. They have no way of knowing if your display is cranking saturation through the roof, inserting gross fake frames it's calling "true motion" or whatever, blasting the shit out of brightness and blowing out highlights, etc. They don't actually know what the final output looks like. They only know what they send.
Think of when you open the menu on your screen to adjust the colors or brightness or change the input to another one. That overlay is controlled by the screen and not the computer. If you take a screenshot when it is up, the screenshot won’t show it because the monitor is driving that, not the computer
