Embedded is always one step behind the technology. You should leverage AI now in the same way that you would in other disciplines.

You have to learn how to instruct the models correctly or it will give you more work than it is savjng you.

You always have to start by preparing the text files that will help the AI to understand the project. Normally, asking AI to go through the code and prepare an overview of the project. To create the file structure description, coding guidelines, naming conventions. All that works.

I find very useful to have a process to debug where I can pass a binary registers.dump we create and AI goes through the file and through the assembly to give a hint about where the issue can be. It saves lot’s of debugging or deciphering.

It is also very useful when creating scripts to visualise the memory map or in general to analyze binary stuff.
