While Intel / Intel Labs continues working on new quantum computing chip research, their open-source software efforts around quantum processors have taken another step back. Back in February Intel Quantum Intrinsics provided a C++-based front-end for the Intel Quantum Compiler and went along with their previously-archived Quantum Passes. Intel Quantum Intrinsics is an adaptation of LLVM/Clang. Quantum Intrinsics hasn't been seeing much development in recent times amid restructuring at Intel and now their Besides cuts for quantum computing software work, even amid the AI rush they continue sunsetting some AI-related open-source projects too. In prior months they have sunset some AI-related projects like the Intel Also let go this week was While Intel / Intel Labs continues working on new quantum computing chip research, their open-source software efforts around quantum processors have taken another step back. Back in February [Intel archived their Quantum Passes project](https://www.phoronix.com/news/Intel-Quantum-Passes-OSS-End)that was providing additional compiler optimization passes for the Intel Quantum SDK.

In prior months they have sunset some AI-related projects like the [BigDL time series toolkit](https://www.phoronix.com/news/Intel-May-2026-OSS-Archived)and IPEX LLM while now OAP-MLLIB is the latest to be archived.Intel [OAP-MLLIB](https://github.com/oap-project/oap-mllib)provided optimized Spark packages for accelerating machine learning algorithms with Spark MLlib. OAP-MLLIB leveraged the Intel oneAPI Data Analytics Library "oneDAL" that was since punted off to the UXL Foundation along with the Intel oneAPI Collective Communications Library "oneCCL". The OAP-MLLib targeted both Intel CPU and GPU capabilities.Also let go this week was
