"Learning at the Edge: Building Intelligence into the Industrial IoT Endpoint"
Sailesh Chittipeddi: That is evolving as designers incorporate more advanced MCUs, MPUs and Neural Processing Units (NPUs) capable of running artificial intelligence algorithms and complex compute functions. Even so, these single-core processors were only able to perform jobs sequentially, first sensing the data, and then processing it before sending an instruction to the actuator. The future of IIoT will evolve into multi-core CPUs, multi-threaded neural processing units, and even low-power, cost-efficient FPGAs driving parallel operations to multiple sensors and actuators. This is the intelligence that’s moving toward the IIoT endpoint. This is what will enable automated systems to locally handle most AI-centric workloads below 10 Tera Operations Per Second (TOPS).
But here, too, I lack the background knowledge to clearly identify us. For me it's like a rabbit hole. Another link and another branch and there again a link and the next article.

Thanks for sharing. I somehow miss on that.
A cool feature is eye-tracking or Foveated rendering, where only the part of the videogame is rendered, where you look at.
The rest is rendered in lower resolution, which saves CPU and GPU power.
Lets see, if and where AKIDA could help to improve these VR gaming systems.
I came across the new DualSense Edge controller, that was announced last month:
DualSense Edge™ wireless controller | Pro controller for PS5 | PlayStation
Craft unique gameplay experiences and play your way with the DualSense Edge wireless controller, featuring customisable controls, changeable stick caps and more.
It features "Ultra-customizable controls" ("Custom settings make your DualSense Edge wireless controller uniquely yours.") and has a touchpad and a microphone.
For both, the microphone (Keyword Spotting) and the touchpad, BrainChip have demo videos on their youtube channel:

I don't think Akida is being implemented in any of the above Sony products. Happy to be proven wrong.
Also, nice market bounce last night. Will be nice to see BRN in the green again hopefully.

I think if it's pre-trained on a board that doesn't rule it out but makes it less likely? The datasheets also overwhelm me. If someone with more knowledge than me would look at it. Maybe there is something to find here if not already done. I have now read in circles and I'm glad I found the exit. First I get myself a beer
The comment is nonsense on my part. How should "Hey Mercedes" work differently on a new vehicle except with pre training.

Naveed Sherwani writes (Chairman, President & CEO at RapidSilicon)
One of the most fascinating companies of our times is ARM.
Almost all aspects of computing world from small embedded applications to cell phone chips , networking chips and now server chips are based on ARM IP.
It is story of grit and preservation over 35+ years. With slow growth in beginning to hockey stick in recent years.
So how did it start ?
It all started with Acron computers looking for an alternative CPU in 1983.
This is a great read for computer architecture fans.
Special thanks to our friend Maureen Blando For brining this story to our attention.
Article:
A history of ARM, part 1: Building the first chip
Jeremy Reimer
It was 1983, and Acorn Computers was on top of the world. Unfortunately, trouble was just around the corner.
The small UK company was famous for winning a contract with the British Broadcasting Corporation to produce a computer for a national television show. Sales of its BBC Micro were skyrocketing and on pace to exceed 1.2 million units.
But the world of personal computers was changing. The market for cheap 8-bit micros that parents would buy to help kids with their homework was becoming saturated. And new machines from across the pond, like the IBM PC and the upcoming Apple Macintosh, promised significantly more power and ease of use. Acorn needed a way to compete, but it didn’t have much money for research and development.
A seed of an idea
Sophie Wilson, one of the designers of the BBC Micro, had anticipated this problem. She had added a slot called the “Tube” that could connect to a more powerful central processing unit. A slotted CPU could take over the computer, leaving its original 6502 chip free for other tasks.
But what processor should she choose? Wilson and co-designer Steve Furber considered various 16-bit options, such as Intel’s 80286, National Semiconductor’s 32016, and Motorola’s 68000. But none were completely satisfactory.
In a later interview with the Computing History Museum, Wilson explained, “We could see what all these processors did and what they didn’t do. So the first thing they didn’t do was they didn’t make good use of the memory system. The second thing they didn’t do was that they weren’t fast; they weren’t easy to use. We were used to programming the 6502 in the machine code, and we rather hoped that we could get to a power level such that if you wrote in a higher level language you could achieve the same types of results.”
But what was the alternative? Was it even thinkable for tiny Acorn to make its own CPU from scratch? To find out, Wilson and Furber took a trip to National Semiconductor’s factory in Israel. They saw hundreds of engineers and a massive amount of expensive equipment. This confirmed their suspicions that such a task might be beyond them.

From a Corporate Identity standpoint, AKIDA could very well fit in a Playstation product, for its more coolish, technoid, futuristic image than Nintendo.
Sony released the Playstation5 just two years ago. It will take a few years from now, until they will release a Ps6.
With implementing AKIDA into peripherals, like a controller, they can compete with Nintendo.

Top 20
As much as I would like to see it in their peripherals, I have seen nothing that leads me to believe Akida is being utilised in their existing or upcoming products.
I think it is more likely that the next Nintendo console will implement Akida in some way, through Megachips of course.
PS6 is a long way off, at least 5 or 6 years based on previous console life cycles.

As an accountant, I feel personally offended by this.Seriously I know @DingoBorat ‘s heart was in the right place but what good can come of Brainchip being advertised across Australia as the Number 1 Gainer on the ASX200.
Who knows what sort of bean counter type bores will see that and do a deep dive into the company and discover what a sleeping giant it is becoming across the technology world.
Next thing they will be recommending BRNASX to golf partners and dinner guests and worse still clients.
We will then have new posters telling us how they heard about BRNASX from their accountants.
Mark my words no good at all will come from this.
MF is doing its best to bury these stories and facts but try as they might I think it will now be too little too late.
Whether we like it or not we are likely going to make a lot of money.
My very sad opinion only so DYOR

It is a shame when anyone feels uncomfortable in an open chat. I have been a reader for a long time now and can’t see the benefit of anyone being critical of others point of view, information unless it helps with the discussion. Tech is a fountain of knowledge, keep it up.

Its 22 vs. 3 for Sony
based on references and dotjoining.I know, Sony does more than consoles (tvs, cameras). But there has been more proven references for SNN and neuromorphic computing for Sony than Nintendo so far.
Sony could get AKIDA earlier in its peripherals.
Nintendo has the advantage, that they can possibly build the whole console/platform based on AKIDA, when it will be released in 2023/24.
Happy to see AKIDA in both platforms

As offended as all the bankers, lawyers and accountants may be their love of money is going to see them all watch the Rob Telson presentation because it has toy trains, drones and beer and is probably the most concise confidence building presentation on why we are now all wearing brown cardigans and drinking fine brandy by the fire even in the tropics.What super hero do you think he is, and why.....
