I had a thought just now and it was that
@MarketingMan must be one very happy marketing man this past week or so because his "what if' became not 'what if' but a known fact Intel is a Brainchip partner. So having dared to dream I thought it would be right and proper to remind everyone of his dream that has now become reality:
Emerged
Intel invests in open-source RISC-V processors, creates billion-dollar fund
Intel and RISC-V working together is a game-changer, and today is the day that RISC-V becomes a chip power.
www.zdnet.com
Intel, which has made billions from its closed-source, complex instruction set computer (CISC) x86 processors, is joining forces with RISC-V, the open-source reduced instruction set computer (RISC) CPU group. What next? Dogs and cats living together!?
Reading an article like this makes me realise that Intel is (of course) willing to look outside of its own research labs to find technology worth backing.
Which makes you wonder has Intel considered manufacturing Edge AI devices under license from BrainChip?
Have they even considered it? Well, let's test that...
- Do they know about BrainChip? Of course they do.
- Have they evaluated BrainChip's technology? You would have to guess they have acquired a Chip and all the support bits and torn it apart. I think they would understand it in great detail.
- Have they thought about building an AI device/chip under license? Yeah, they would have to have at least tossed the idea around even if they rejected it. Either that or work out a way to get around the patents (or come up with something different).
Have they spoken with BrainChip and explored this option?
DON'T KNOW
We don't know who the EAP companies are.
We don't know much.
But, what IF?

Pure unadulterated speculation."
Congratulations and Merry Christmas
@MarketingMan Santa clearly came early to your house.
