Intel oneAPI vs OpenCL
Developers should learn Intel oneAPI when working on performance-critical applications in fields like scientific computing, AI, data analytics, or media processing that require optimization across multiple hardware types meets developers should learn opencl when they need to accelerate computationally intensive applications by leveraging parallel processing on multi-core cpus, gpus, or other accelerators, especially in fields like high-performance computing, data analytics, and real-time graphics. Here's our take.
