How far we've come! Path tracing is the ultimate form of ray tracing and somehow, in just a few years, we've gone from a path-traced Quake 2 to a path-traced Cyberpunk 2077! How is this possible? In this Tech Focus video, Alex explains the combination of hardware improvements since the launch of RTX 20 Series, working in combination with radically more advanced software and the rise of AI-generated pixels - everything coming together to push in-game visuals further than they ever have before.

We're also just in the beginning of ai denoising as well (check out rendering 25 btw, it's really cool and a sign of things to come)

Alex would make a great audiobook narrator

That was a very sweet one , thank you :) i hope it will get a positive echo. It will be nice to see in a few years when get an adoption of shooting/gathering hybrids, for those sweet sweet reflected caustics.

When will we see a Path-traced Crysis I wonder?

This video is a stunning example of why I support DF and you guys are probs my fave content on Youtube. The analysis is truly without equal. There's no other channel that brings this level of technical insight and makes it comprehensible to the rest of us.

So fascinating to see how far we have come in such a short amount of time. Whatever you might think of Nvidia in other areas, their investment in pushing real time graphics forward is giving us some insane experiences.
