The A380 has a load alleviation system dampening turbulences. Try to look at the trailing edge of the wing in flight and you see the flaps moving indepently to counter gusts like fingers of a piano player.
Having said that the 777 has a similar system and newer aircraft like 787 and A350 have it as well. The A380 is much quieter inside compared to the 777.
