In an interview at CES , AMD's president of GPU Technologies and Chief Software Officer Andrej Zdravković suggested that the FSR 4 Redstone technology might be open-sourced. The statements come in the wake of an accidental release of the FSR 4 code earlier this year.
The hint came during a Q&A that Tom's Hardware attended when Chips and Cheese's George Cozma asked Zdravković if an open-source release was in the cards. The software head responded that the accidental public release in August was unexpected, but that it intends to release the source for the FSR4 library while keeping the core technology closed, so as not to give Nvidia engineers an advantage.
He continued by stating that AMD intends to "work as openly as possible," and was then asked to be specific about FRS 4's open release. Zdravković then said "that's the long-term plan," seemingly corroborating an earlier remark that "open sourcing is in [AMD's heart and mind]".
