It's described fairly thoroughly in the release blog at https://www.chaos.com/blog/corona-12-update-1 . You'll find a brief discussion in the release video at

t=419 , and the webinar is worth a watch too at

. There will be a tutorial later on, but it is pretty straightforward stuff so the blog should have all the description needed :)

Thank you,
i saw rhe videos.
Now I understand, when I activate the upscling the software automatically reduces the image and returns it in the VFB in the original size by applying the AI ​​denoise.

That's it exactly - renders one half width, one half height (so, one quarter of the pixels, meaning it renders four times faster) then upscales using the NVIDIA AI Upscaler. Only really useful for drafts and tests though, and sometimes for a more responsive IR - but that's still a useful time saving when doing tests and drafts!
