The dominoes are beginning to fall.
After the ‘Eyes‘ were unable to find a true blue competitor, it was always only a matter of time before the likes of Intel swallowed their pride and joined the Akida revolution. They just had to find a way to save face before doing so, and inviting Brainchip to join their IFS programme was the perfect foil. Have no doubt, a license is not far away.
Can you imagine the panic going on within the hierarchy of IBM and other biggies right now. If they want to stay in the game, they must ”do an Intel” and join the revolution...they simply have no choice.
If they still think they can take another route, the imminent release of Akida 2.0 will blow these thoughts asunder. Everyone will eventually use Akida in some way. It’ll be in everything…even your Weet-Bix !!
The thought of using NDA’s and other confidentiality agreements amuses me, cos they’ve now clearly passed their use by date. They’re simply mechanisms where everyone is trying to keep the same secret from everybody else…AKIDA !!
You may remember about 5 years ago (approx) when I wrote a post about Peter, the Good Shepherd, and how when he was approaching a fork in the road, around 18 years ago, he had to make a choice, having done so, at times throughout his journey when he hit a blockage on the road, he quietly reflected on the fact that he may have chosen the wrong path, but being someone who never gives in, continued on the lonely path, only passing a few, almost unidentifiable footprints made by a few, wary, early explorers, all searching for the holy grail, that being, Spiking Neural Networks.
I referred to our company as the "Black Sheep", the mob were on one side of the river and the Good Shepherd and all of his early followers on the other, an olive branch was handed out, the founders CNNSNN was the branch that showed how respectful he was towards all on the other side of the river, he was clearly the guiding light who reached out to help others without showing ego or self-importance.
Still very humble today. A great bloke.
After a number of years, we now find ourselves hosting other companies, many have now reached the point where they can finally accept that a little unknown Australian Tech start-up, who started from humble beginnings in the Perth suburb of Belmont, had arrived.
I know that the company's staff are ALL working hard to bring everybody's dream to reality.
Here's to a happy and safe Christmas for all that celebrate this special day with family and loved ones...thanks to ALL posters throughout the year, both positive and negative, a good honest debate on our company is always healthy, with opinions that are simply just that, opinions.
Merry Christmas. Tech
