Intel Compute Runtime 24.39.31294.12 Fixes Lunar Lake OpenCL, Disables Ice Lake & Older

So just Xe / Gen 12 and newer are officially supported. That sucks. I do wonder if the pre-Xe iGPUs are performant enough to be useful compared to their CPU cores. But at a minimum, being able to easily play with their compute runtime on almost all their consumer CPUs from the last 10 years seems like it would add value for the ecosystem (like the ubiquity of CUDA support does on the NVIDIA side). I wonder if distros will flip the switch to enable the now deprecated generations.

Pre-Xe iGPUs are too slow for GPGPU. Possibly Intel wants to tie GPGPU software with Xe kernel driver.
Rusticl provides OpenCL 3.0 support for older and newer Intel GPUs.

I really hope we see AMD's ROCm and Intel's Compute Runtime eventually give us that kind of longevity from RDNA 1+ and Xe+.

RDNA1 has no official support for GPGPU and it will not get it in future.
You can use AMD's OpenCL PAL driver or Rusticl to get OpenCL support.
