Yes dude they speculate. The author is neither a developer or engineer. They speculate because they cannot develop code themselves and they do not have a way to test what is possible or not. Just like any technology you put it in the hands of the builder and let them find creative ways to use it. It's interesting people put up articles like they are gospel from someone who has no more technical knowledge on the subject then yourself. Personally I would listen to actual developers who are using such techniques. I want to here from developers like avalanche, Bethesda, Rockstar and others who may be able to leverage this tech and here there opinion. I really care not about an opinion peace that conclude that MS must show me it works because we all came to that conclusion without knowing anything.
Sony talked about how powerful the cell was back in the day but when the first games games came out in relation to the 360 people were hard pressed to see the difference and the 360 games even looked better. As the years went on developers figured out how to send there code as jobs to the cell processor. The developers figured how to tap into the power of the cell by changing the way they develop for the system. This will not be any different with the cloud compute. Developers will test what works and find solutions that allow them to take advantage of the power.
Poeple who naysay the technology and state it will not do anything to enhance a game are the same people who stated the same thing about the cell but look at some of the games coming out now.
