F/F, the sales roles in BRN are becoming increasingly hard to follow. Is this a completely new position? Has someone left/ been pushed to 1 side? I'm really unsure whether to be excited by this latest appointment, or concerned. Bolstering of staff with quality appointments is highly encouraging. Churn of quality staff is a concern, as is what could be construed as demotion. Would be interested in ur take.

I think he probably is replacing the young lady who left whose name escapes me at the moment but she was a former ARM employee and she took a promotion to leave Brainchip.

It will come to me but have been working outside and not used to this glorious sun and heat which has made a cameo performance today.

Remember Brainchip is a growing company they have opened two new sales roles in Japan to serve existing account customers.

Last time I heard a rumour they had still to reach the predicted 100 or so employees.

F/F, thanks for the quick reply. I realize the tech space is very competitive, and incredibly fluid. Gone are the days of people working 4 1 co. for life! That said, I'd love to see the day come where BRN is so compelling, so exciting, grabbing so much market share, and so potentially profitable for senior employees, that staying with the co. just becomes a no brainer. Interesting to see that the big end of town in this space are laying off employees in the thousands. There's going to be some serious talent out there looking for work. We may be in a sweet spot, if not right now in terms of revenue, but in terms of available personnel.

Todd Vierra also says in that video-

“We have NASA working with us, we can’t really tell you what they’re doing but they’re trying to do things like realign their outer space things to recognise stars to get orientation”

Now what the hell could that be?

You are making an incorrect statement. It should read “what in the heavens could that be?”
You won’t recognise much in hell.

Googled Todd’s statement

Mission Dispatch: Tracking the Stars – NASA's Europa Clipper

Europa Clipper will need to know its orientation while traveling from Earth to Jupiter and in orbit around Jupiter. To accomplish this, it will use the stars.

europa.nasa.gov

A star tracker is a small camera with a computer that carries a catalog of stars with known positions. As the camera observes the starry sky, the computer matches the pattern of stars in the images to its star catalog and determines the spacecraft's orientation in space. Using stars for reference allows a spacecraft to adjust its orientation to precisely target objects in space, such as moons or distant galaxies, as well as point its communications antennas to transmit data back to Earth.

Hi Fact Finder, I wonder how many of those private meetings were held with Prophesee's current partners as all of their products would be enhanced with Akida IP incorporated IMO.


View attachment 26460

Prophesee's sensors proliferate with industrial partners

Developer of event-based sensors recently raised €50 million in series C round backed by Xiaomi and Saudi Aramco venture fund.

optics.org

Well there are two answers:

1. None because they have already had meetings in 2022 and are working on projects.

2. All because it makes no sense that they would not when they are already attending and or jointly presenting as Sony is with Prophesee in the same suite as Brainchip.

The idea that Prophesee partners are not lifting the bonnet to take a look at AKIDA when Luca Verre said that until AKIDA all previous solutions failed to optimise Prophesee’s event based sensors potential is illogical and why Prophesee made the point many of the 100 meetings are subject to NDA.

Thank you @JK200SX I had got to I think her surname started with a “V”.

Ok, last one, because my imagination is running wild as to what Island I will buy my mom for next Christmas if these come to pass. Lol

I asked can you tell me the most influential partnerships the company Brainchip has established. Here is the answer. Now, it does mention Dell which is at least something we can join a solid dot to, but if This AI bot has somehow found a loophole into top secret information then the word ubiquitous is starting to make sense in Brainchips language.

The following are some of the most influential partnerships that Brainchip has established:

1. FPT Corporation - Brainchip entered into a strategic collaboration with the FPT Corporation to jointly develop and deploy AI-driven surveillance and cybersecurity applications.

2. AWS - Brainchip has partnered with Amazon Web Services (AWS) to boost its AI solutionization, providing customers with a comprehensive cloud experience.

3. Microsoft - Brainchip has joined with Microsoft to provide state-of-the-art AI and edge computing solutions to business customers.

4. Dell Technologies - Brainchip and Dell Technologies announced a development and distribution partnership to integrate Brainchip's Akida Neural Processing Unit into server and industrial PC applications.

5. GlobalLogic - Brainchip and GlobalLogic forged a partnership to build AI-enabled solutions and analytics to help customers build cutting-edge applications using Brainchip's Akida NPU.

6. Winsonic - Brainchip and Winsonic have entered into a collaboration agreement to provide edge computing and AI-driven surveillance solutions on the Winsonic-enabled edge computing platform.

GLTA including the shorters.

Now, don’t go sell your house based on this Robot, but I just find it fascinating how convincing it makes it sound!

It's interesting and not at all fanciful, at least not completely.

ChatGPT, is basically just hooked up to "everything" on the internet, to provide the answers, create songs and poems etc, that it does.

How is it governed, to collect the information it provides?

It could be a bit of a "Millions eyes".

Nothing it has said in regards to BrainChip, is completely discountable..

From what I skimmed anyway ..

It could also have made associations, with Musk's Brain Chip..

I'm amazed and amused at the story I got it to write for me.
I will definitely look forward to generating children's stories for family members.

Is this right Brainchip is still working with NASA.

I thought this had gone away because some of those nice people over at HC told me I was dreaming if I thought NASA was still involved.

Are you sure because they were only trying to save me by bringing balance and they seemed so genuine and if NASA is still working with Brainchip then what they were saying about Renesas, Ford, Valeo, Mercedes Benz and AKIDA technology may have not been right either.

And they seemed so nice and only wanting to bring balance and help all those who had bought in at a higher than the present price and convince them to take the loss and join an investment service where they would get the names of five better shares to loose their money on by spreading their risk.

Perhaps these sort of people were the inspiration for CHATGpt.

They like it are prepared to make up stories using incorrect or unverified information and then claim it is to help people.

Now that the FACTS are solidly against these parasites they will attack earnings and make up pretend charts to try and induce an irrational response.

Much like competitors do in business to try and steal customers or undermine market confidence.

That's true.. 2+ yrs in most roles.

That's the way of work nowadays.
Before I retired last year I was with the same small company for 30+ years over a couple of stints, but that was unusual even for my generation.
I grew with the company and it suited me as I was allowed a high degree of autonomy.
I was also lucky enough to be able to transfer around and so over the course of that time had about 4 different roles which kept me interested enough, until the pace of change wore me down and I'd had enough.
For someone coming up these days 2 years per stint is probably a fair average, with the emphasis being on 'move up or move on'.
Particularly in the Tech sphere where the imperative undoubtedly would be very forward looking and one would be encouraged to be continuously updating one's skill set.
It probably takes about that long to get enough experience in a modern organisation, such as ours, to decide if it's a good mutual fit anyways.

I am looking forward to further revelations from Brainchip and our associates as they unfold and with my recent purchase's now have my largest holding ever. I am anticipating being filthy rich in due course.
Obviously I believe that the share price will gain traction over time but that this is not a prime concern for the company.
Nor do I particularly want it to be their major focus.
I hope they will continue with their current strategy of building the business and embedding our involvement with other compatible organisations in a mutually beneficial way and am confident that in the mid to long term an increasing share price will be a natural by product of our development.

We have the better, cheaper and more efficient mousetrap already and are busy convincing other's our IP can be incorporated within their design.
We also have our rights to it protected as well as is possible by law, and our Founder is now freed up to pursue his vision of improved functionality in succeeding generations along with whatever else is in his mind for the greater good of mankind.

No doubt we will continue to be plagued by the practices of the manipulators and shorter's for some time yet, but the more integrated within our sector we become and the more confidence in our reputation for being a solid, reliable partner develops, the less impact such negativities will have.
I'm all in with Brainchip and am looking forward to 2023 and the further years ahead.
Excelsior BrainChip.
