for some reason, people are extremely hesitant of playing RT modes on AMD hardware. it's an absolute bitch to find any kind of RT benching for the 6500XT. I know it sucks, but I still want to see numbers for it. especially games that offer scalable RT like Metro Exodus
I wouldn't expect lots of RT in Switch 4k games, it'll probably mostly be used for minor things and audio. That being said, we'll probably still see some surprisingly good looking RT usage here and there.
There's other ways to do rt lighting that's highly scalable, nvidia made one for UE4 even. There's also RT for particle physics which is what UE5 is doing
I wouldn't be surprised if the feature was only used for docked mode.
No, all of this lines up with the rumors of late 2022/early 2023.

Lol the hackers are demanding that they remove the Hashrate limiter on cards
Cybercriminals who breached Nvidia issue one of the most unusual demands ever
Chipmaker has until Friday to comply or see its crown-jewel source code released.
It wouldn't make much sense for them to make them open-source. It's a for-profit private company, and they make proprietary stuffs that makes then earn those profits.

You would still need pretty specific hardware to run it, but the software could have other potential use cases.
I think the consumers won't be paying for the software (so we win) and only the hardware (physical medium), and that the ones implementing the software on other platforms / hardware would be the ones who pay royalties to Nvidia.
If these hackers are so awesome and have all this information, do they not have enough info to make their own drivers?
The damage would come from being able to reverse and understand the underlying architecture (for reproducing Tensor hardware and software equivalents).
where are they gonna manufacture these? TSMC/Samsung/etc aren't gonna make themselves liable
It's not like they're going to print "partially produced using leaked proprietary information that allowed us to catch up to the competition in designing our own ML solutions" on the wafers.
