You can't just buy a movie company and believe that real time game engine + movies = real time movies. A massive amount of optimization and architecture refactoring work is required to make it happen.
https://twitter.com/kerckhove_ts/status/1923365950876729726- Bloated unit test suites taking several hours to execute. Slows down devs and causes merge conflicts as pushes are delayed.
https://twitter.com/Jonathan_Blow/status/1919847600527716561Messy big functions with lots of indentation (loops, branches) should be avoided. Extracting is a good practice here. But often functions like this are a code smell. Why do you need those branches? Why is the function doing too many unrelated things? Maybe too generic? Refactor?
This is how you would use the API to dispatch a compute pass with a single compute shader writing to two SSBOs.

It wasn't just a fancy blur algo. Today, people render so much noise. Noise increases neighborhood bbox/variance. Which increases ghosting.
CDNA has wide matrix cores and other wide compute workload improvements, which AMD wants to bring to UDNA. It also has multi-chip scaling.

TimeSpy does volume ray-marching and per pixel OIT. Consoles got proper 3d local volume texture support recently. My benchmark using M1 Max back int the day suggests that even Apple doesn't have 3d local volume textures in their phones. Maybe in M3. Didn't run my SDF test in it.
