Hi 7of7The point is not always which product is better. We discussed it in the German platform several times. It’s about the price. If you can get, as a company, an AI solution which is sufficient for your product, and don’t need everything what akida offer, you will buy the cheaper one. That’s why I think, at the moment they are working on a product with better price-performance. It’s important for brainchip to be not too expensive to get one of the leader in this segment. Also not too cheap… the balance is important and the most difficult work.
Hope my English is good enoughsorry in advance
Well you can tell the others that AKIDA has the game sown up. It has the highest performance and a dramatically lower price point than Intel's Loihi and IBM's True North.
AKIDA 1.0 with all the bells and whistles is about $25.00 Australian. If you want the IP it is considerably cheaper and it is cheaper again if you do not require all the nodes. Renesas licencing just two nodes paid considerably less than what MegaChips did for the full AKIDA 1.0 IP.
Over the years I have heard various prices for a single 14nm Loihi 1 chip which ranged from $80 to $170 Loihi 2 at 7nm is going to be much more expensive. In addition at least at this stage they do not offer IP and their chip design does not allow for selling of just part of the neural fabric. Indeed to achieve the best performance they seem mostly to offer Loihi 1 and 2 in two chip configurations at least with the latest Loihi 2 offering being a board with eight Loihi 2 chips.
So I am not sure what the discussion is you have been having in Germany but it needs to be reconsidered as Brainchip has cancelled out the opposition in this space on price as well as with Science Fiction performance.
My opinion only DYOR
