Yes, so not relevant for UI right now, as most user will only 
have on-die GPUs (colocated on the same chip as the CPU). But if 
all GPU vendors are moving in the same direction then it will 
eventually make it to the low end.

Hmm... yes...  if you look to art then some of the best artists 
break even with correct perspective and rendering for more 
impactful aesthetics. There was some research done under the 
label "evolutionary art", where computable aesthetic measures 
were used for the fitness model. Not sure what the status quo is, 
though. Maybe NN will lead to something.
