BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Slymeat]

Seems Nvidia are still determined to ignore neuromorphic....continued mention of air and water cooled......................

NVIDIA have sold the sledgehammer approach to AI very well (I call it AI by GRUNT) and have been rewarded fabulously for it—a hangover from crypto mining maybe. And while excessive energy consumption is still not an issue for data centres, and many AI systems, who simply add extra green (and perceived to be free) energy generators (wind, solar etc), I doubt NVIDIA will need to consider energy efficiency. They sell the perception of AI by GRUNT and want everyone to think that’s the only way to do it.

I call it a perception of AI, because throwing immense resources at a problem in order to do something clever, very fast is not my idea of AI.

The world doesn’t yet comprehend what intelligence is, let alone artificial intelligence, nor AI at the edge. Power consumption at the edge is critical—and this is where Akida will rule.

I view intelligence as reasoning to an acceptably correct result given completely new information, and even with information missing.

The closest thing I’ve ever seen to true AI is the Tiger demonstration by BrainChip. Being trained with a single toy tiger, oriented in one direction, maybe two, and being able to reason that a picture of a real Tiger is also a Tiger. Now that IS AI and should be shouted out to the world as load as possible.

One-shot, and even two-shot learning is critical to getting people to accept the true worth of Akida.

AI by Grunt systems need to be trained with thousands of different pictures and then can only chose a solution if presented with an image that is contained within that training set, or so close that it is pretty much indistinguishable. That is simply a database lookup and has zero intelligence. It can only use logic that is coded into it. It cannot deviate from that code!

MetaAI and ChatGP have astounded me with the relevance of their answers. But still, not AI IMHO.

I thought this was very interesting, Elon saying not really using cnns anymore??

@Diogenese if musk isn't really using cnn's much these days snns would be a likely replacement would they not?

Summary: Researchers have developed a novel image sensor that significantly improves the ability to track neural voltage changes, crucial for understanding brain functions like memory. The new CMOS technology allows individual pixel timing control, enhancing light capture without sacrificing speed.

In experiments described in the study, Zhang and Wilson’s team demonstrates how “pixelwise” programmability enabled them to improve visualization of neural voltage “spikes,” which are the signals neurons use to communicate with each other, and even the more subtle, momentary fluctuations in their voltage that constantly occur between those spiking events.

“Measuring with single-spike resolution is really important as part of our research approach,” said senior author Wilson, a Professor in MIT’s Departments of Biology and Brain and Cognitive Sciences (BCS), whose lab studies how the brain encodes and refines spatial memories both during wakeful exploration and during sleep.

Mike Davies, Intel Labs: ‘We’re reaching the boundaries of basic computing’

The man at the head of the world’s largest neuromorphic system is aiming to mimic the human brain to increase computing capacity and efficiency in meeting the demands of a new era

english.elpais.com

Q. Does artificial intelligence need a neuromorphic system to grow?

A. That’s what we believe.

Q. Will we see a neuromorphic chip in a personal computer or smart phone?

A. I think so, it’s a matter of time frame. You won’t see that in the next year, but the technology will mature and I think that you will see it deployed into edge devices [data processing that takes place close to its origin to ensure speed and efficiency] or mobile devices, autonomous vehicles, drones or your laptop. Our Hala Point device is designed for the data center. It’s a box the size of a large microwave. But if we look at nature, you find brains of all sizes. Insect brains are very impressive, even at that small scale. And then you have, of course, the human brain. We are pursuing both directions of that research. We believe that the commercialization will happen in the edge devices first, but there’s a need to keep pushing and doing research at the large scale.

At the data center, we will probably be able to see these systems in five years

Q. When will they be ready?

A. It’s hard to predict because there are still open research questions. At the data center, it’s probably something like five years. We also see in the future that everything will need to operate off of battery power, and the power savings that neuromorphic can offer are extremely important.

There are also somewhat less obvious applications, like wireless base stations for cell phone infrastructure. We are working with Ericsson to better optimize communication channels.

Very promising.
Hopefully this will compete with the Ray Ban Meta.
TCL needs to improve on the current glasses design for a start. That think is ugly.
Hopefully something comes out of this partnership and not just another dead end for everyone.

Not advice. DYOR

Prophesee mention only their sensors. Ultraleap apparently have some sort of AI they've been using. Not sure that it includes Akida.

Go away down ramper!
I am sure you'll include this in your next MF article.

Pia selling her shares does not bring any confidence in her own commitment. Especially at this price. Would love to hear something from her about Brainchip. Anything.

Sorry, did you say something?

 

[7für7]

I’m excited

Sure you are. But you don't seem to have any critical facility.

If Sean can't find a licensee for our IP, he should look for a wealthy partner to buy some of our shares. A lot of them.
To keep diluting the value of existing shareholders and raise money from capital raising at this stage is lazy and contemptible.

So you're not really excited are you.. You're asleep with half a frankfurter rolling about your chaise-lounge. Wake up!

I think you didn't understand what I wrote. Let me make it clear. I'm not a beginner in this business like you and your T&J and The Dean friends who mess around here with other nicknames. I haven't sold my last pants to buy shares. It doesn't even occur to you that other investors took out their initial investment at the all-time high and maybe some profit, letting the rest ride. No, you don't think that far. You just invest $100 (if that) to boast about doubling it at $200. You're just fortune hunters looking for the perfect rise by any means, lacking knowledge and information about the company and technology. Your constant whining and negativity show you don't see anything positive in life. Work on that, and you'll be on the winning side! Just a little tip... not investment advice. Better you wake up

Probably just paying out the loan of her house, thats all......

I didn't ask WHY she is selling them.
I said I would like to hear something from her about Brainchip, a company that employs her. shows me some people are ignorant, newcomer, Kids or just storyteller

Mrs Turcinov is a very smart person it seems but are not technology educated but you can bet that she have lots of connections in Australia and elsewhere.
Because of her education, she should not be speaking in public about BRN in my opinion but more working in the back ground. It's very likely she is doing just that!

Really? That is not her role. That is the role of the CEO, but I'm pretty sure you know that.

For those that have a few spare minutes I have linked below an article SNN's.
https://semiengineering.com/new-approaches-needed-for-power-management/
A couple of points I took away was the difficulty in developing products specifically designed for SNN. Plus the explanation on Prophesee's Event-Based Vision. Prophesee's current commercial EVS does not use SNN and a research EVS that does. Hello Akida.

Nicely put Guzzi62.

When it comes to Pia's role, an ANT61 post I came across the other day comes to mind (see below).

Even though I'm sure Brainchip will have connection/s to law firms, I believe Pia's link and vast experience and understanding between the tech sector/innovators and law is a huge benefit. Especially with Brainchip's handling of being in stealth mode, all the do's & don'ts, and how to tackle what lies ahead for them.

Space law and policy are so hot these days!
It was great to have our CEO Mikhail Asavkin join the panel with Joann Yap, Robert Neely and Sebastian Chaoui and unpack complex topics of liability, insurance, permitting and in-orbit servicing regulation on the Space Exploration and Innovation event organised by Lander & Rogers!
And, of course, our Beacon has made an appearance as well because it's the key product that brings it all together, managing mission risks and ensuring compliance with new regulations.
