Intel has released AI Playground – a generative AI manager for Arc video cards

Intel has released the first version of AI Playground, a tool currently in active development for Arc GPU owners. The free, open-source application for Windows allows you to generate images and text using artificial intelligence models with open weights.

AI Playground offers both built-in features and manual customization options, which is important when working with generative AI tasks. There are many AI tools that can run on Intel hardware, such as Automatic1111 and LM Studio, but AI Playground is designed specifically for Arc’s discrete and eventually integrated graphics.

The tool is easy to use – the options are accompanied by descriptions that are understandable even to users inexperienced in the field of AI. It makes it easy to download models, and Intel offers a video tutorial on the process. So far there is talk of support for Stable Diffusion 1.5 and SDXL, but there are hardly any obstacles to downloading other models. The application takes up 700 MB, but as new models are added it will require significantly more space.

Intel promised that Core Ultra-H processors (apparently meaning Core Ultra 100H) with integrated Arc (Alchemist) graphics will be supported, and some time later they will probably be joined by Core Ultra 200V with Xe2-LPG architecture, but this not yet confirmed.
