I'm not even sure that we'll ever get to that point. Plus, it's not compatible with most hardware yet.

Nonetheless, I think that it is possible to modificate these cards, to have an upscaling chip inside it. But it would take some effort, which no company will ever do.
Ray Tracing is useless (unless it's for animated movies or movies that use CGI), regular lighting is a lot better for performance, and it's 80% as good as Ray Tracing, in comparison. I use a really bad laptop, yet it is possible to get 30 to 60 FPS, on decently optimized games.
Then, isn't it best to say what you used the AI on, so that consumers can make even better choices?
The problem is that it's being used to not optimize, when it should be to prolong the lifespan of computers, mostly older gaming rigs. If developers focused on optimizing and not on rushing things, a GTX 1080 Ti could probably handle AAA games at 1440p, high settings, at least at 60 FPS, and 140+ FPS with DLSS at quality. Keep in mind that I don't blame most developers, but rather big corps, that do have partnerships with companies like Nvidia, that obviously want people constantly buying their GPUs.
But with Zink support, right? My old iGPU does not support most of the Vulkan features.
