My father had at truck with a mechanical lever arm with hand turn and stop indicator.. To indicate turn right, raise the arm. To indicate raise the arm and pull the knob and the hand would turn up and represent a stop signal. In 1964 it was the only thing he would allow me to operate. ( I secretly learned how to turn on the headlights and flatten the battery, sorry dad ! )
... an image to conjure with!But of course!
Or maybe I'd be wearing a dingo costume and mankini..
I have similar experience with fancy High Tech Brand 4wds in remote Australia (Brand Anonymous). It is a massive problem that the development of high tech vehicles , tools and appliances have a virtual non-existent support base. If you are young and tech savvy and want a carrier in service industry, the world is your oyster.Cheers Mate thanks
Some of us are a bit slower than others on the information uptake
but if I was to remove myself from the competitive race to neuromorphic supremacy
I would choose Akida to control my switching requirements.
Aside from tech advancement in vehicles, one problem is electronic fault and damage repair.
My beautiful 2016 3.0TDi Audi A5 Sline sports hatchback (with every current advanced feature such as active lane keeper etc)had to be written off by insurer recently after impacting a large rock to the undercarriage because of an intermittent electronic fault that no repairer was confident to guarantee.
Resulting in an unsustainable waist of a car being devalued to scrap for parts.
Same thing happened to a mate with a new Jaguar.
Same thing happens with white goods and consumer electronics where a faulty circuit means throwing an item away onto a bigger and bigger heap.
I think products need improved error code analysis to detect the exact faulty parts for replacement and maybe Akida is that missing link.
Cheers to you toI like to drink.
And they would have to change your name too probably something generic like Rob I guess
Hi chef,
1 day we might get news or the share price explodes
Well now that you've got me thinking about NPU architectures, MemRistors/ReRAM are architecturally more similar to wetware compared to Akida, but Akida's N-of-M coding is functionally closer to the operation of grey matter, and this feature contributes more to the improved performance than MemRistor's architectural verity.
Well we did appoint some publicity gurus. Don't have the date for this, but it dates back to LdN. Still, it would have been difficult to get traction until there was some product out there (Mercedes?)
Why would you get exercised about that?
I trust I never earn your disrespect.
You never will .... but lets forget the progressive agendas and focus on the end goal.
well thank you for your response! I had some similar ideas. what is meant by n-of-m coding? do you mean the tensor? I guess they need at least some additional memory and units (sigmoid & MAC) in each NPU to not fall back to CPU and ensure performance and parallelisation. thus I guess I understood the problem why they have to build a completly new chip. thanks!
Hi chef,
