Intel GPUs have never been that bad... In the past they were simply small because the expectation was they'd be paired with a dGPU.
The Core series has GPUs on par with or even slightly bigger than most of the Ryzen AI series (look up benchmarks and articles).

But that's bad in my book. I'm happy with 720p on low detail once in a while if it's a laptop. What I remember is Intel GPUS being unable to do even that.
If they caught up with AMD iGPUs, that's great. I don't do desktop replacement laptops, I prefer the ones I can hold in one hand, the dGPU is in my desktop.

Maybe in the days of HD graphics cards... I've got a Tiger Lake chipset and the Xe iGPU outperforms the laptop 3050 dGPU in actual games (due to having access to waaaaaay more RAM).
