BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Sirod69]

like our FF said, Arm is really a greater partner for us than Mercedes

The Next Tech Revolution​

The smartphone revolution changed lives. IoT will change the world.​

Arm architecture represents the world’s largest computing footprint, scaling from the tiniest sensors to supercomputers. Arm’s computing technology underpinned the smartphone revolution and is ubiquitous in IoT and embedded applications. Where smartphones ship around 1.5 billion handsets per year, IoT suppliers now ship tens of billions of devices. In fact, the IoT runs on Arm technology, as its partners are shipping over 29 billion Arm-based chips a year, around 70% of these were designed for IoT and embedded markets.

We have a superior product, went commercial early this year and have developed a marketing and sales plan. Its early days still. The CEO said we may get some revenue this quarter. AI at the Edge is basically a new world and it may take a bit of time for the old one to catch up.
Like others here I have been a holder now for many years.

I was fortunate enough to be an ophthalmologist and unfortunately dealt with the manifestations of diabetes on a daily basis. Now I live in Mexico where seemingly everyone is 100 lbs overweight and the main beverage is Coca Cola.

Just a comment on your post, from a lay person not in the field whatsoever, I have come to the firm conclusion that excess consumption of refined carbohydrate and its derivatives are at the root cause of this diabetes pandemic. Although this company is doing great work, I think we really need to have a mass education push from (WHO) of why this maybe happening in the first place.

 

[Damo4]

“The companies I mentioned before each of them won one of that”

Listen for this sentence. Even making allowance for his English language skills the meaning is absolutely clear and I am convinced Brainchip won the Know Labs Handheld Glucose monitoring machine.

My opinion only DYOR
FF

AKIDA BALLISTA

Just chiming in to say I also believe the link is all but confirmed to Know Labs

"neural network engine"
"how much model you need to train, but still need to be handheld application"
"low cost, low power"

"each of them won one of that” (no mention of ANY other Nueromorphic partners)

I cut carbs out of my diet on 1 January this year and have lost 14kg since then - I've never looked or felt better. I have not changed any other aspect of my life including my exercise routine. It's carbs especially sugar that is the culprit not fat (I eat Keto - lots of cheese, oil and fatty foods). AKETO BALLISTO!

Today Cerebras Systems announced that we have build Andromeda, one of the largest AI supercomputers in the world. Andromeda delivers more than 1 Exaflop of AI compute, 120 Petaflops of dense compute, and has 13.5 million AI cores. Commecial, research and academic customers are all now using Andromeda to solve problems that simply can't be done on GPUs. In fact one of the first workloads was a 25 billion parameter GPTJ style model with MSL 10240. The 2000, A100 GPU cluster named Polaris couldn't do the work. Andromeda could. #ai #deeplearning #hpc #GPTJ

I found connections from Cerebras Systems to Arm and Qualcomm

Qualcomm has officially launched (an hour ago) the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile AP for high-end smartphones which will be available by the end of 2022.

It says "the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 will feature one Arm Cortex-X3 core clocked at 3.2 GHz, four Cortex-A715 cores at 2.8 GHz and three Cortex-A510 cores at 2.0 GHz. The extra performance core should give it an edge over the competition, at least in multi-threaded workloads, while being over 40% more power-efficient." It also states says " the improved Hexagon AI processing unit is up to 4.3 times faster than its predecessor".

Specs include "fused AI Accelerator Architecture" and "Dual AI Processors for audio and sensing".

Not saying it incorporates Akida this time around but I'm sure we'll get there one day.

While Renesas have licenced 2-node akida ip, they are pushing their own non-neuromorphic solution R-Car very hard, which contains Renesas' own propriety IP to accelerate AI.
They are a bit like ARM who have their own non neuromorphioc solution, Ethos, which they will push relentlessly.

The time to pop the champagne cork is when someone puts akida ip into a chip. They could put it into a renesas built chip, or an arm based chip.
But what do you think renesas or Arm would say to such a client? It most certainly won't be built by NVIDIA.

So, It will probably be designed at MegaChips.

If you look at the advances made by Alif semiconductor, you wonder if we shouldn't pay Megachips to manufacture a new batch of akida chips with the very latest of what we have.

This is my take-home quotes from the wonderful video from Edge Impulse:
1. Brainchip is so far ahead it's like science fiction.
2. You probably haven't heard of them.
3. Akida IP is best for high end linux systems, not microcontrollers.

Don't shoot me down. I'm only quoting what the guy said.

Let's do a CR and build the chip ourselves.

Here's a link to a new podcast with Markus Shafer for our German speaking friends. Would be great to know if neuromorphic computing is mentioned at any point.

Moove (94) – Markus Schäfer, CTO Mercedes Benz: Werden elektrische Mercedes teurer Luxus?

Hat die A-Klasse noch Platz in der Luxusstrategie? Wie kommt die Emotion in einen elektrischen AMG und wieso entwickelt Mercedes noch immer neue Plug-In-Hybride? Entwicklungschef Markus Schäfer erklärt im Podcast, wie sich der Autobauer für die Zukunft rüstet.

Great!

The sensor involved can go into a raspberry-pi. see:

So does the akida chip.

I cut carbs out of my diet on 1 January this year and have lost 14kg since then - I've never looked or felt better. I have not changed any other aspect of my life including my exercise routine. It's carbs especially sugar that is the culprit not fat (I eat Keto - lots of cheese, oil and fatty foods). AKETO BALLISTO!

Yep me too, I reduced my carbs to a maximum of 14 per day and since February have lost 18kg, I have to have some carbs as a bottle of good red wine is 14 carbs (preferably a 2010 Barossa shiraz)!

Love it! But how do you resist that one piece of chocolate/or cookie/ or whatever that eventually leads you down the path of eating it all like someone possessed, and throwing you off the Keto path?

Dozens of containers strewn across tracks after freight train derails west of Geelong

Dozens of shipping containers have been strewn across tracks at Inverleigh, near the Victorian city of Geelong, after a freight train derailed early Monday morning.

www.abc.net.au

The Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) said it was working with freight customers on a recovery plan.

The Office of the National Rail Safety Regulator has been notified and the Australian Transport Safety Bureau has taken control of the site.

The ARTC said it would provide further details and an update on when the interstate freight corridor would re-open once a full assessment of the area was completed.

The Australian Transport Safety Bureau's (ATSB) chief commissioner Angus Mitchell said a team of safety investigators had been sent to the site.

"They will also obtain and review any recorded data, weather information, witness reports, and relevant train and track operator records."


The regulators need to know the benefits of implementing Akida, I hope BRN can reach out to the regulators and provide the solution they need to implement.

I've also had great health and body altering achievements over the years by cutting out carbs and following a paleo diet. I have fallen off the wagon a few times (back to consuming, in my case wheat) it all goes the other way and I look and feel like crap. I have no doubt that refined carbohydrates, white bread and wholemeal (dirty white) are predominately to blame for many of the health problems facing the world today.

‘Always sensing camera’ sounds like it could be us, could this be an event based camera?

I love Akida and I love carbs.
