AMD's General Manager and Senior Vice President, Jack Huynh, released a video on X hinting at the upcoming launch of the company's newest advanced graphics technology, named "Redstone." The latest teaser suggests that more details will be revealed on December 10. AMD's latest FRS "Redstone" platform builds on the AI and machine learning super resolution introduced with FSR 4 and introduces three key innovations: neural radiance caching, AI and ML-based Ray Regeneration, and AI and ML-based Frame Generation. Neural Radiance Caching utilizes a machine learning model that continuously learns how light interacts within a scene to predict and store indirect lighting, reducing the performance cost of ray tracing.

Additionally, AMD FSR "Redstone" Ray Regeneration works similarly to NVIDIA DLSS 3.5 Ray Reconstruction by using a neural network to regenerate pixels that couldn't be accurately path-traced, particularly improving reflection quality when super resolution is applied. The new AI and machine learning-based Frame Generation model marks a significant evolution from the interpolation technology AMD introduced with FSR 3. This approach uses machine learning with integrated temporal and spatial awareness to generate interleaving frames with greater accuracy and enhanced image quality. While this method doesn't achieve the 2x frame-rate doubling of NVIDIA's RTX 40-series "Ada" architecture, it intentionally prioritizes superior visual fidelity.
