Where did you get your 90% for ML stat from? I suspect you just made it up becuase it just happens to fit what you experience personally.

I work with software for virtual studios. It's very similar to gaming in a lot of ways (even using Unreal Engine) and we really push GPUs to the limits. I'd still count this in the "for gaming" category as we;re still rendering 3D scene within a strict time limit.

the 90% / 10% image was not a real world stat, it's supposed to be an illustration... but not well worded I'll grant you that.

What you are doing is the same type of work that I would put in the "pro user" bucket like ML. Actually I do the same thing with the same cards to render synthetic dataset for my ML pipeline, including using UE :)
