Rob Telson at the Edge Impulse AI Imagine day.
Can one of you esteemed individuals who have a rapport with the AKIDA team please contact Rob and inform him of the grave error he made in his presentation. I have saved the above link to that section for convenience.
IMO this is highly unprofessional and could easily create friction between Brainchips customers.
One would have thought he would have presented to his peers prior to 'iron out' this sort of potential error.
Allow me to explain.
Rob is speaking about the new functionality that Akida offers in the Mercedes in cabin experience.
He has mistakenly shown the functionality working in the wrong car.
He has the BMW clip on screen.
Easy error to make but they are competing businesses. That is a little embarrassing for such a seasoned professional.
I can imagine how this would happen.
Rob has a busy schedule, presentations all over the world to a wide differentiating customer base.
He has most likely put the presentation together in a bit of a rush and pulled the wrong 'MOV' file displaying BMW not Mercedes.
Id assume there are a huge library of files he can choose from on his LT and whilst double checking the beers one shot learning demo through a blind tasting process he has fooked up.
Please be polite and respectful in pointing this error out, I know the whole team have a lot on their plate and I’m still delighted to have them, in part, working for me to achieve some of my goals whilst I continue to be a shareholder.

From the point of was it a mistake definitely not as that is the only demo he had to choose from unless Brainchip has secret NDA covered promotional demo videos that they do not show to anyone.What if it wasn't a mistake and was intentional... BMW !!!
So the question becomes was this intended to send an additional message beyond what it was showing AKIDA demonstrating.
What could those messages be:
1. We do not have a demo video using Mercedes Benz vehicles - a kind of a half truth as the Nviso demonstration is using a Mercedes.
2. Hey Shareholders we have hooked BMW as well - not very subtle if this is the message.
3. Hey BMW just in case you are wondering our brilliant AKIDA technology is so advanced it will even work with BMWs not just Mercedes Benz.
4. Hey Audi we are driving the future with Mercedes Benz and BMW don’t miss out.
So many messages so much opportunity.
By the way I was interested to find that Brainchip’s Kristopher Carlson on LinkedIn has almost as many professional contacts at Google as he does at Brainchip. If you remove the non techie Brainchip contacts he actually has more at least on his public page.
Request: Would someone who is signed up to LinkedIn please open the entry on Kristopher Carlson’s public page which has the name BRAINCHIP and the words “coming to a casino near you…” underneath and let me know what this refers to please. It may be old dead news.

Just another dot join here,Opening scene, .................................. PDVM & Elon ....................................
As we haven"t got any idea yet of when/who might join us in the (next?) podcast, i encourage
everyone to listen to Elons closing sentence, in the Tesla AI Day 2022 .
Have never heard Elon talk about podcasts til this was mentioned,
And, why was our last monthly podcast pushed back to, i believe "end Sept, early Oct" ?
I know, wild speculation, but hey, we all are dreaming of different household names being announced, why not Tesla.
Mmmm, ..................... imagine

Exactly im with u on that. Rob can talk about Mercedes and promote Mercedes every day off the weeek bevause Mercedes has announced it but BMW well they haven't yet so perhaps advertising is allowed though silent film only at the moment with Bmw but word of mouth advertising is Mercedes. Mercedes did well to announce it as so much advertising now surrounding Akida.What if it wasn't a mistake and was intentional... BMW !!!
So Bmw is in the bag but so far its Zip it zip it as dr evil saysFact Finder

“Just down the corridor from our meeting room, this unit has several projects underway. Among them is a new surgical tool they call an “iKnife”, in which smoke and aerosol produced by diathermy (a surgical technique using high-frequency electrical current) is analysed to show if a surgeon is cutting through live or dead tissue – one of the most difficult challenges of burn wound surgery.”

AKIDA BALLISTA
Good presentation by Rob.
Light, breezy, confident, showed off many of Akita’s qualities.
I watched some of the other presentations and although they might have contained the relevant information they were very tech heavy and dull at times making them hard to watch. It may however have suited the audience so I can’t be too critical.
Not sure if I read too much into it but Rob paused before using Akida’s name… not sure if there was another option he’s also been discussing, e.g. Akida 2.0 which may be used in his private discussions with EAP’s.
I wish he had emphasised in the demonstrations that it was cloud free, however I think his audience would be well aware of that; but sometimes pointing out the obvious with a new audience is enough to get the Wow factor!
The BMW clip demonstrating the visual and face recognition is quite old; I would guesstimate 12 months as it was made before the MB announcement came out from memory as there was speculation at the time why Brainchip were using BMW, e.g. are they an EAP?
It had been shown previously with measurements alongside it showing the power levels used to complete the tasks.
Same as the beer clip, that’s quite old too although I did note that he mentioned the beer companies name as a “Partner” not sure if that was a deliberate choice of title or accidental.
Good clip to watch if you haven’t seen it yet.
Cheers!

If I had to venture a guess, it was probably in reference to this bit of news from 2017, which would put it at the 5-year mark:

Anyone know anything about BrainChip’s US investor relations contact Laura Guerrant-Oiye?
I found her at the bottom of the casino trial page (shown below), but the date at the bottom of the BrainChip webpage is 2022 - so seems current?
Must be a hangover from the old website?
From the look of her LinkedIn page she is undertaking this same role for Aspen Aerogels
I’ve never heard her name before, not that that means anything
I can’t see mention of BrainChip on her profile and she does not include them in her list of followed companies

I believe that is old information. The last contact I used was Mark Komonoski at Integrous Communications.
The last time I checked (in the past two weeks), his e-mail was still listed as a contact for Investor Relations in the US.
However, good luck trying to contact him. I sent an e-mail on 9/21, and a follow-up on 9/28 after receiving no reply.
I was trying to get any information about BrainChip's DTC eligibility, as apparently they are not eligible and I am still getting charged an outrageous fee by my broker.
I also asked about proxy materials for voting, which I never received through Fidelity, so no idea what's going on there.
Tony Dawe was cc'ed on both e-mails that I sent.
