Resolution Note:
The shader uses a lot of half precision floats. Intel/AMD GPUs do not support half precision floats, but the M1 does.
This looks like a precision issue. On M1, actual halfs are used, leading to large rounding errors causing the artefacts. On Intel, where halfs are not supported, full precision floats are used instead, preventing the rounding errors / artefacts.
This issue can be resolved by changing the shader to user full precision floats where necessary.
