Yeah, I definitely wouldn't trust it to replace basic physics of running, jumping, bullets, objects shattering, etc. But it seems extremely promising for fiery explosions, smoke, and especially water. Anything with dynamics that are essentially complex. Also for lighting -- both to get things like skin right with subsurface scattering, as well as global ray-traced lighting. You can train specific lightweight models for these things, and they important thing is that their output is correct at the macro level. E.g., a tree should be casting a shadow that looks like the right shadow at the right angle for that type of tree and its types of leaves and general shape. Nobody cares if each individual leaf shadow corresponds to an individual leaf 10 feet above or is just hallucinated.
