As far as I know, [OpenCL.jl](https://github.com/JuliaGPU/OpenCL.jl) mentioned above is your only chance to run code on an integrated Intel GPU.  
However, in my experience, using OpenCL on an Intel CPU directly is often similarly fast or even faster than running the same code on the integrated GPU (but there can be a really significant difference if you have a dedicated GPU), cf.

There can be a really significant difference if you have a dedicated GPU.
