Microsoft DirectX Introduces Neural Rendering for Cross-Platform AI Graphics

The new DirectX update brings cooperative vector support, enabling real-time AI-powered graphical computation on GPUs from NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm.

• Microsoft has announced that its DirectX API will now support neural rendering, a technology that uses AI to enhance real-time graphics rendering capabilities.
• The update introduces cooperative vector support, which optimizes GPU processing by enabling efficient matrix-vector operations for AI workloads.
• Neural shaders, a key feature of this technology, will allow developers to run small neural networks directly through shader code, unlocking advanced graphical effects like path tracing and realistic object generation.
• NVIDIA's RTX 50-series GPUs, equipped with Tensor Cores, are set to fully leverage these features, but the update will also enable compatibility across GPUs from AMD, Intel, and Qualcomm.
• While the foundational technology is being implemented now, widespread adoption in gaming and other applications is expected to take several years.
