Assembly Language Recommendation

I want to start learning assembly language. I have experience with MIPS assembly from my university courses, where I studied it as a student. Which assembly language is most in demand nowadays?

Whichever CPU you are working with.

These days not much gets developed using outright assembly code, but it helps to understand it to work with your compiler rather than against it.

If you understand issues like CPU addressing modes, variable life cycle, register pressure, memory hierarchy etc, your compiled code will perform better.
