Neural Graphics: Speeding It Up with Wave Intrinsics

This blog builds upon the previous blog post, Neural Graphics: First Principles to Performance, and explores advanced performance optimizations using Slang's familiar 2D differentiable Gaussian splatting example as a testbed. After recapping the 3D differentiable Gaussian splatting example and recapping the diff-splatting approach to a staged pipeline, the blog introduces wave intrinsics and the subsequent performance payoff.
