With the move of several members of the AMD GPU team moving towards Intel, a lot is changing all under the leadership of Raja Koduri. Intel aims to release a dedicated GPU by 2020 under the codename Arctic Sound.

Arctic Sound will be Intel's proper attempt into the GPU market (I am not counting Larrabee which in the end got canceled), we do expect the initial release to be aimed at the intelligence (AI) and machine learning sectors but yes, in the end, perhaps a gaming GPU as well.

Intel is now rumored to host a conference in December, with its chief architect Raja Koduri and executives bringing updates about the company's development and future projection of the pending technology. Koduri who left AMD precisely a year ago has set up a GPU R&D center in Canada, and it has plans to build a GPU design R&D center in India.
