I'll be honest, I wasn't sure what to expect with Real-Time Ray-Tracing with Vulkan for the Impatient, but wow! It completely blew me away. The way the author explains ai made everything click for me. I've been struggling with ray-tracing for years, and this book gave me the tools I needed. My favorite part was when they talked about ai - it reminded me so much of my own experience with compute. I've already recommended it to all my friends!

While Real-Time Ray-Tracing with Vulkan for the Impatient makes several valuable points about compute, I found some aspects problematic. The author's treatment of ai seems oversimplified, particularly when compared to ray-tracing. That said, the sections on compute are genuinely insightful and make the book worth reading despite its flaws. With some refinement in ai, this could be a truly outstanding work.
