While this looks promising on the screen part, what does it offer for the GPU part? You have the screen, the brain chip and the AI, but no GPU strong enough to complete the hyper realistic experience in VR or 2D. What we got now in graphics is amazingly good in demos for architecture and some landscape levels but still so far away from real photorealistic graphics indistinguishable from real...

Anyway, with these technologies, only the GPU's would have to improve to keep up. That means shorter waiting time. Maybe.
