AMD presents new method of handing indirect lighting off to an image generation model: 'frame-by-frame' solution could be part of AMD's answer to DLSS 5 someday
AMD has published research detailing a new frame-by-frame method for generating global illumination using a one-step diffusion model, a technique that could potentially be integrated into future versions of their FidelityFX Super Resolution technology. This approach aims to create more realistic lighting by generating it via image generation models rather than computationally intensive methods like path tracing, though current performance metrics indicate it is still far from real-time gaming speeds.
