Hello,

I would like to inquire if there are any upcoming plans to integrate AI tools within the MCUXpresso IDE for code generation or other development tasks. I’ve noticed that the Eclipse AssistIA tool is currently not compatible with MCUXpresso.

Additionally, I wanted to mention that Visual Studio offers plugins such as Codestral that provide similar AI-driven features. Are there any existing or planned AI tools for MCUXpresso that could enhance the development experience in a comparable way?

Regards.

Hi @ahmedhrabi ,

see https://community.nxp.com/t5/MCUXpresso-IDE/Broken-Text-search/m-p/1958351/highlight/true#M10045

I personally have not used Tabnine, but it seems to me that their claim of privacy does not cover the free tier.

Anyway, my personal opinion is: if you are working on open source software only, such AI models might be fine. I never would use it for anything else. There are simply too many risks associated with such 'helpers'. And prior using AI with your coding: better check first with your legal and IP department and lawyer. Just my 1 cent.

IMHO, these AI plugins at least in the current state are more experimental. Use them at your own risk. I have not tried AssistAI, but I know for example Copilot4Eclipse even can damage an existing Eclipse installation, causing standard functions to break. You will need a new fresh installation of the Eclipse distribution.

This potentially might get more mature over time, but that might take time, depending on the quality of such AI plugins.

As you already mention VS Code: NXP supports it and provides extensions for it, so if you really want to use AI tools, then you have a choice.

I hope this helps,

Erich

@ErichStygerThanks for your response. I wasn’t aware of the issues Copilot 4 has with Eclipse. On a related note, do you have any feedback on Tabnine, as it's also supported in Eclipse?
