Long ago, I was a system developer. Now I think of it - I feel the whole development / logs / debugging / deploying was all abysmally slow. To even load software via JTAG took about 5 minutes! So there is big room to improve things in this space.

Do you have clients using this now ? how are you thinking to land inside semiconductor-ish corporates ?

Yes rnavi,I have the same experience as well.The complete system software development can be expedited using AI.Yes, we are doing private beta with a Japanese semiconductor conglomerate.We go with a philoshopy like your data, your model and your cloud.We create instruction dataset from their tech spec and code.Everything on-prem.We have partnered with AMD and Nvidia for on-prem GPU deployment.We help them selecting the right small language coding model and deploying it with securely.
.. and how does it fare with devin/cognition etc - have not tried them just youtube videos.
Devin and Cognition are great as co-workers for application software. They're proficient in JavaScript and Python and excel at solving logical problems in software. However, they aren't trained in or familiar with system software, which typically runs on physical devices and requires verification against technical specifications for programming.
