Cybersecurity was discussed in Au Parliament today.

I dropped Australian Signals Directorate a gentle hint about Akida, QV, US DoE, and M2 - probably ended up in Spam folder.


... should have used Signal!

Qualcomm files antitrust complaints against ARM around the world​

Business news | March 27, 2025
By Peter Clarke
SILICON ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ANALOG EDA & CAD TOOLS SEMICONDUCTOR

Qualcomm Inc. (San Diego, Calif.) has filed complaints alleging anticompetitive practices by processor IP licensor ARM Holdings plc with the European Commission, the US Federal Trade Commission and Korea Fair Trade Commission.​

Bloomberg reports that Qualcomm’s complaint is that ARM – which has operated an open and equitable intellectual property licensing regime for more than 20 years – is now restricting access to technology and exploiting its market dominance as it prepares to operate in competition with its customers.

The multiple filings come after Qualcomm successfully defended itself in a lawsuit filed by ARM in a Delaware court.
In December 2024 the jury found that Qualcomm’s latest AI-PC processors, based on the ARM instruction set, were properly licensed and did not need a separate license to be negotiated. The formal result was a mis-trial, which left Qualcomm free to continue selling its Snapdragon X processors based on the Oryon core for now, but also left the way open for Arm to seek a re-trial, which it is expected to do.

In the trial it was revealed that CEO Rene Haas had written a strategy paper indicating ARM could start designing its own chips. Haas responded that as CEO it was his job to consider multiple possible courses of action and that this one has not been implemented.

Since then it has been reported that ARM is designing a CPU for data centers as a “chip platform” that will be customizable for multiple customers with Meta as the first.

The question this begs for me is whether it indicates a return to ASIC manufacture or whether this is to be offered as a service to a customer/customers...........

I think it's for clients.
The nature of our business is changing and our staff mix and levels will change with this.
We were made aware at the last AGM that there were many engagements which as they become 'serious' will require serious liaison from engineers/project managers.
I note that week we advertised for a Manager to oversee SBIR projects we are involved with.
It all shows we are moving into the next phase.

I have this vague feeling that they are holding back any announcements that would lead to a rise in the stock price ( if there is any at all 😂) until after the transfer to the USA, meaning after the RS. It would have been too good to be true… Can anyone provide a counterargument? I’d welcome that.
That's like saying you will save energy for the finals when you are losing your game in semi-final 0 vs 5...

they need to show us that they are actually winning. We need to see some $$$$$$$... right now, we have almost nothing compared to our staff numbers, they would make more money if we send them to Maccas to flip burgers...

Of course, one shouldn't take such a post seriously. Right now, I'm just taking it with a touch of sarcasm and irony. I do think something should come before the AGM. Or let's say, I hope so.

In that case, I have a feeling that they will wait till AkidO9999....

Did anyone else notice that Sean mentioned Heart when talking about Wearables. The big talk of course was the Onsor Epilepsy detector.
Tata released a paper on a heart issue device for early detection of heart issues.
No doubt we have a project engineer working with Tata.

2022/23 was our year to incentivise Key Management personnel (KMP).
2022/23 total realised remuneration for KMP was $8,120,967.
2023/24 total realised remuneration for KMP's was $4,404,575.
Total decrease of $3,716324 in one year.
Basically mostly reflects incentivising the BOD in 2022/23 via a stake in the business.
Both Sean and Tony V are in the top 50 holders and set to move higher.
I think we are already seeing some results from 2022/23 and earlier engagements.

There is hope. I asked Gemini a ridiculous question and got a surprise answer:
"AKIDA technology, developed by BrainChip, is an advanced neural processing unit designed for edge AI applications2. While its primary uses include object detection, data analytics, and event-based learning, it could theoretically be adapted for medical or cosmetic purposes, such as detecting male pattern baldness. By analyzing visual data or other biomarkers, AKIDA could potentially identify early signs of hair loss and suggest interventions."
Is there no limit to AKIDA????

A mirror and reluctant acceptance might be an alternative.
PS: I am not bald just shedding.
It's Friday afternoon after all.................

Yep, another weekend drinking cask wine. On the plus side, you can blow up the bladder and use it as a pillow.
