Let’s take a step back before we race forward. Someone recently asked me how my “triage process” works for people pitching potential articles to me. I’d never really thought about this … Read More → "Physical AI Robotic Ships on Patrol!"
If you’re involved in developing embedded systems, YOU NEED TO READ THIS. I’m sure that, like me, you’ve been exposed to a lot of AI-powered design tools over the past couple of years. Suffice it to say that the one I’m poised to tell you about just blew my socks off (don’t worry, I’ll retrieve them later).
I’m so excited … Read More → "Meet the Embedder AI Firmware Engineer"
