Embedded programming is often associated with underlying hardware configurations and is tightly bound on both time and memory.
I did try co pilot to generate assembly instructions for a nested interrupt scenario for a particular micro processor that I was well versed with. Code generated wasn't bad. Like any other generated code, one needs to explicitly verify if it's doing the job or it was supposed to.
Co pilot on C: just tried well known algorithms. Task was easier for co pilot here.
Overall, it'll help a programmer work more efficiently with some assistance in hand. And will evolve as we grow towards next generation GPTs
Good amount of time is spent in embedded world to debug chipset specific and hardware specific issues - more so during early days of development. A copilot in this in its current form may not be of great help. Might be in future with enough trained data.
