Intel Arc GPU support.

Does Flux.jl support Intel Arc GPU?

The GPU support in general is handled through other libraries. The Arc GPU is handled through https://github.com/JuliaGPU/oneAPI.jl which can be used similarly to CUDA interface with some changes. Looking at the documentation it seems that the current version does not support the full set of operations that Flux needs to run.

I'm also very interested to play around with Flux on my Intel Arc GPU. However, despite oneAPI.jl existing and looking quite mature, it is currently not among the supported GPU backends for Flux. Are there any concrete plans to add support in the future?

Given that none of the deep learning specific oneAPI libraries are wrapped yet in oneAPI.jl, I would not call it quite mature for ML use cases. Were someone to do that, we could then think about writing extensions for it in Flux and NNlib like was done for AMDGPU.jl and Metal.jl.
