Brainchip mentioned very briefly at 4.48 min.

To all those that think that we have problems, go and have a look at what is playing out at 4DS of late

Lots of neg sentiment of late, nothing coming from the company, and some posters on here starting to get worried/concerned.

i flicked an email out to the company asking a few things:

I understand the NDA's, but there has to be a way to get information to the public and shareholders rather than just releasing updates on the website and newsletters, surely a non-price sensitive announcement without disclosing the name of the party at a minimum...?

I also make comment on the last quarterly activities report was given very little attention - it looked like it was typed up in 10 minutes- again this is incredibly frustrating.

Finally, there was a comment made on a podcast i think, that come the end of the year 'revenue growth would exceed cost growth'. i think some are interpreting as revenue would exceed costs, but am i right in saying that the actual statement is more correct - ie revenue growth is at 100K per quarter, but costs only growing at 20K per quarter.

Did you miss the "majorUSautomanufacturergate"?

Good morning,

I did try to get some new information on the Akida 2000 development from Peter, I did ask Anil if he was happy with the progress that was being made, I did mention that I was going to email Simon Thorpe, which I did last night and have received a nice reply overnight, which I'll share these few points.

Yes, Simon is still convinced that Spiking Neural Networks are the future !

Yes, Simon still holds a small number of shares in Brainchip.

"I’ve got a few collaborations going that are exploring using off the shelf hardware (Mac M1 or M2 chips, or Nvidia chips) for doing what I call Terabrain simulations - billions of neurons and trillions of connections. The key is have have ultra sparse activity and ultra sparse connectivity using exclusively 1 bit connections. Very fast, very cheap, and very low power."

"It’s coming on nicely, and I hope to have stuff to publish before long. And I’m working on the book that I promised Oxford University Press 40 years ago (!) - "The Intelligent Neuron."

"The ideas could certainly be used in custom hardware (ASICs etc)"

I'm a communicator, I pride myself on it, will are all blessed with this, it's born in us, but sadly, many people go through life without using
this gift to it's fullest, or only speaking with a cut tongue....the company has always been a little up and down in the communications
department, but at least I try for everyone's benefit, we are a family, aren't we ?

Love Brainchip...............Tech x

Hi Tech, thanks or the update but I have a concern re Simon Thorpe's response seen as he isn't involved with directly with Brainchip(SAB) and that is this from him ""I’ve got a few collaborations going that are exploring using off the shelf hardware (Mac M1 or M2 chips, or Nvidia chips) for doing what I call Terabrain simulations - billions of neurons and trillions of connections. The key is have have ultra sparse activity and ultra sparse connectivity using exclusively 1 bit connections. Very fast, very cheap, and very low power."
How does this benefit the company when the likes of Mr Thorpe is out developing potential competition? Am I seeing too far into this? thanks

Positive share price changing news could drop at anytime. In fact, the longer we go without news, the closer we get to news.

I’ve joined the up coming zoom webinar on the 24th. At 11am American/Canadian pacific time .A Wednesday. I am hopeful that they may say something over that time period of the webinar or I will be asking why they bother to have it .

There is much more valuable use of time then staring at a minute chart wandering who is buying and selling...

For some people yes, but not me.

Oh dear....

It's a pretty terrible scenario for 4DS holders. Ones loss is another's gain though. Some considered 4DS to be serious competition for Weebit which I am heavily invested in. This should benefit WBT immensely.

Back to Brainchip though, we have a chip that has been tested, works and is now on the market. It's a pretty damn good position to be in for an emergent technology. 4DS holders would love to be in our position. It's now up to Rob and the sales team to lock in some revenue!

Wow 60% down, did the results not come back good or something?

 

[alwaysgreen]

It's complicated but essentially, the chip doesn't work.

 

[Townyj]

Wow 60% down, did the results not come back good or something?

The chip failed after further testing.

 

[gex]

Wasn't heavily in 4ds so I'm lucky in that respect

 

[Deleted member 118]

Well I hope no one here lost too much money

Gidday over in NZ...you raise a very interesting point, a number of shareholders hold Simon in very high regard, and so this little bit of news
was in all honesty for those concerned...Simon was on the SAB but things got a little complicated internally, so he moved on...now I am
aware of how he would like to be still involved or engaged with the company, but the truth is that, Peter and Anil are running this ship from
a technical standpoint and the reason that I posted this information was that certain someone's do read these posts from time to time and they may which to re-engage or at least inquire in to what Simon is working on, that is purely my own opinion.

We ALL KNOW that we wish to see most, if not, ALL "early access partners" sign up to our IP....they must be sold on the technology by now,
I personally don't understand why they appear, from the outside, not wanting to 100% fully commit just yet.

Are they waiting on the next version of Akida, are they haggling over the contractual figures ?

P.S. I did suggest that an update on AKD 2000 would be better received coming directly from the founder himself, rather than the CEO, and
again, that's my personal preference, as would be a lot of shareholders in my honest opinion, no disrespect to Sean though.

Have a great afternoon........Cheers Tech

One thing for sure the silence is deafening and a worry.

 

[Deleted member 118]

Does anyone have any broker detail of late as it be interesting to see who has been selling of late, which has seemed to of subsided today.

Thanks for the reply Tech. How about getting on the "Bat phone, or Bat email" to inform the individual you think may read your post, then guaranteed info is passed on. thanks

I will be tuning in as well. Really looking forward to it.

9 days to go.

Recent chip conference in China.

Predominantly around Intel in the article but was the paragraph below that caught my eye.

Err...hello?

https://china.postsen.com/business/8147/Two-Magic-Weapons-Bring-Thousands-of-Computing-Power-and-the-Amy-Era-may-come-earlier--CCF-Chip-2022--Leifengcom.html

In addition to heterogeneous computing and heterogeneous integration, the exploration of neuromorphic chips is also an important way to break the bottleneck of computing power.

Song Jiqiang pointed out that most of the current artificial intelligence still relies on GPU, CPU or accelerator, and their essence is still the price drop of multiplier-accumulator. The neuromorphic chip constructs the underlying computing unit in a way that simulates human neurons.

If such a chip is constructed, and artificial intelligence algorithms are programmed by means of a spiking neural network, it will have the opportunity to achieve a thousand-fold improvement in energy efficiency. Under the same energy consumption, it can reach a thousand times the computing power of the current multiplier-adder chip.
