Its wild to me how they can go through all these extra compute steps to generate an extra frame and that's some how more efficient that generating one normally.
It's probably not that much faster than or efficient than traditional rasterization, but ray-tracing gets exponentially more expensive to absolutely completely fill in the scene. For the RT scenario it actually does make sense. Even rendering out frames and animations in blender you don't let the renderer go on forever. At some point it's more effective to let it stop and denoise it. The earlier you can get away with doing that the better.
