Synopsys.ai Copilot Customer Impact

In the fast-paced semiconductor industry Synopsys has redefined EDA with its Synopsys.ai Copilot, a generative AI tool. Since its launch in November 2023, and yes I was at the launch and very skeptical, Copilot has evolved to address the industry’s growing design complexity and projected 15-30% workforce gap by 2030. Let’s… Read More


The Importance of Productizing AI. Everyday Examples

The Importance of Productizing AI. Everyday Examples

image generation fail

Keeping up with the furious pace of AI innovation probably doesn’t allow a lot of time for deep analysis across many use cases. However I can’t help feeling we’re sacrificing quality and ultimately end user acceptance of AI by prioritizing new capabilities over rigorous productization. I am certain that product companies do rigorous… Read More

Two Perspectives on Automated Code Generation

Two Perspectives on Automated Code Generation
by Bernard Murphy on 09-03-2025 at 6:00 am

pair programming

In engineering development, automated code generation as a pair programming assistant is high on the list of targets for GenAI applications. For hardware design obvious targets would be to autogenerate custom RTL functions or variants on standard functions, or to complete RTL snippets as an aid to human-driven code generation.… Read More
