Sony introduces AI upscaling to base PS5; Marvel's Wolverine and Ghost of Yōtei are first games to implement new tech PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution (PSSR) remains exclusive to the PS5 Pro, which SIE says is the "gold standard" Sony Interactive Entertainment has introduced new AI upscaling technology to the base PlayStation 5, called Quick Spectral Super Resolution (QSSR). SIE developed QSSR through its ongoing AI graphics collaboration with AMD. QSSR features "streamlined neural network architecture" and "hand-tuned implementation [to] maximise performance on PS5" to enhance image quality and improve frame rate. "The reality is that the PS5 Pro has 300 TOPS of dedicated hardware for this purpose and is free to pick a much more generous spot on that cost-versus-quality curve." Craig continued: "It's true that PS5 Pro was purpose built for the task, so QSSR relies primarily on FP16 math.
