Intel Xe-HPG graphics could support AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution

As recently revealed, AMD's new FidelityFX Super Resolution image optimization technology — a scaling solution that generates 'super-resolution' images from each incoming frame — won't require an AMD graphics card to function. The technology is open and should work well on both AMD's older Polaris architecture (Radeon RX400/RX500) and NVIDIA's competing Pascal (GTX 1000) from the same era. Furthermore, since AMD FidelityFX Super Resolution is a cross-platform technology supporting DirectX 12, DirectX 11, and Vulkan APIs, it should also run on Intel graphics processors.

Raja Koduri, a senior employee in Intel's graphics division and former head of Radeon Technologies Group, indirectly confirmed via Twitter that the 'blue giant' is already considering using FidelityFX Super Resolution in its upcoming Xe-HPG GPUs.

Koduri stated that Intel will strive to support and implement open technologies. This certainly includes AMD FSR, as it will be released under an MIT license.

Considering AMD's own assertions that NVIDIA cards will support FSR out of the box, Intel's additional support for FidelityFX Super Resolution would be highly advantageous. However, it's too early to jump to conclusions, as Raja Koduri's response to the question was quite ambiguous.
