AMD Advances AI-Powered Path Tracing to Rival Nvidia

AMD is developing a neural network technique to enhance real-time path tracing on its GPUs, aiming to match Nvidia's capabilities.

AMD is researching a combined neural supersampling and denoising technique for real-time path tracing on RDNA GPUs.
The new approach aims to improve image quality by using AI to clean up noise in ray-traced images.
AMD's research could lead to a new version of its FSR technology, potentially matching Nvidia's DLSS in performance and image quality.
Speculation suggests AMD might need dedicated hardware in future GPUs to support these AI calculations, similar to Nvidia's tensor cores.
AMD's strategy may include making its FSR technology compatible with a wide range of GPUs, not just its own Radeon cards.
