I wonder if this could be used in the near future as an raytracing add-in card to offload the RT functions from the GPU. Like we had it in the past with the PhysX accelerators. It would be a short lived technology, but might really benefit the current generation of new GPU models.

I agree with the "never will" part, I strongly disagree with the "can't" part. It very much can, but whether or not it is worthwhile is a different story.
