I think GUIs and touch screens are the future of all embedded systems. No more buttons. Imagine the cockpit of a boeing 747 with all levers buttons and knobs removed. Just a giant LCD touch screen GUI coded by a bootcamp graduate in React + redux.
The plane would be more useable by the pilot as touchscreens are more versatile than old fashioned buttons. Also you would be more safe because if a lever or button fails on a flight you are pretty much screwed but if a touchscreen fails you can just reboot the touchscreen and you're good.
