It actually works, i could activate RTAO only, it just doesn’t look like u would expect for an usual AO…objects get a very light and soft shadow near contacts. Then if u enable RTGI it also enhances shadows and i guess this is how should work…For my understanding of real life shading i guess AO doesn’t even exist, i mean everything should be handled by GI ( indirect lighting is the deal)

That’s correct. AO is basically a fake effect.
