AI-powered coding assistants like GitHub Copilot and ChatGPT are transforming software development—but what do they mean for embedded systems engineers? Unlike traditional software, embedded programming comes with unique constraints such as limited resources, real-time requirements, and hardware dependencies.

This talk explores the real-world impact of GitHub Copilot on embedded development. We’ll separate hype from reality through practical examples, showcasing where AI tools can truly boost productivity—and where they fall short. Whether you're skeptical or excited about AI-driven coding, this session will help you understand how (and when) to make these tools work for you.
