DLSS5 can’t catch a break: YouTube blocks NVIDIA DLSS 5 launch video in some countries after La7 match
Has Italian Television started using DLSS5 before NVIDIA? Not quite.
NVIDIA’s official DLSS 5 announcement video is no longer viewable for at least some YouTube users, who are being shown a notice saying the video contains material from Italian broadcaster La7 and has been blocked in their country on copyright grounds. The video had already passed 2.3 million views.
La7 allegedly aired footage from NVIDIA’s DLSS 5 presentation and then became associated with the same material on YouTube. The older original upload from NVIDIA ended up losing visibility because of a newer third-party broadcast using the same footage. As crazy as it may sound, the broken and corrupt YouTube copyright system has shown once again how useless it is.

I’m sure NVIDIA will sort this out quickly, but perhaps a company that large could sue YouTube over the misuse of its material and intervene in what is otherwise a mostly useless copyright system that appears to be heavily automated, with little to no human review involved.
Still, many say that because the video is basically an AI filter, copyright does not apply to AI-generated footage, so technically no one owns the rights to that video.
