Any plan for "Frame Generation", similar to DLSS to boost render & denoise speed 5x?

Hi just daydreaming. Since both NVidia and AMD have frame generation technology to 2x to 5x the number of frames rendered (predicted or estimated) based on actually rendered frames, (only 1 out of 8 pixels are rendered in some cases.) Does VRay have anything in the roadmap? Our old friend AI denoising has been around for a few years now. What's the next big thing?

Monte Carlo is not ground truth. though VRay was one of the first companies to adopt it. It now seems like the brutal force way of rendering every frame, every pixel is outdated. Maybe this would mean the second revolution of 3D rendering?

AI speeds up rendering 2000x times.in some cases.

What a time to be alive!

(Just realized that the Chinese school project D5 renderer now supports DLSS 3.5 already. https://youtu.be/hr85Lc_WT38?t=368)

(Also, DLSS used to be only available to the latest 40 series NVidia cards, now it's for ALL the RTX cards. I know for sure that someone in the Blender community is already working on it right now.)

If you guys can reveal some of the things planned for the future, like Unreal and many companies, it will get users more engaged.

Thank you for your great work as always.

Nobody wants a 5x render speed boost?

Hi, thanks for posting. We released the Vantage 2.1 and it has already implemented the DLSS denoiser. You can see how it works here. I can't say when and if this will arrive to V-Ray though.
