BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Fact Finder]

Hang on! I think Fact Finder accidentally pressed the sad faced emoji instead of the laughing face on my jokes again. That's OK, its an easy mistake to make.


But on a more serious note, as an early Chrissie treat for everyone I've decided to cease and desist with the bad jokes until the New Year. Merry Brain Fam!

Thank you, thank you, thank you. I use this week to practise my surprised laughter as the grandchildren for their first time but my 65 time read the jokes in the Christmas crackers. You were putting me right off song. This act of charity will definitely be rewarded in this or the next life.

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

Merry Christmas to you and your family as well Tech.

Just because its the week before Christmas and of course @Bravo has made a supreme sacrifice in recognition I thought I would inject two Science Fiction - @TechGirl - uses for AKIDA technology now that the GPU argument has been crushed like an imaginary cockroach in a therapy session aimed at dealing with intrusive thoughts.

Blockchain and Quantum computing the last frontiers for Brainchip's AKIDA technology to conquer or are they already being navigated. In the Alan Kohler interview with the former CEO Mr. Dinardo this is what was asked and said back in 2018. Since then NASA using SNN technology for Quantum Annealing has surfaced and AKIDA is doing regression analysis for vibration monitoring of bridges as well as assisting NASA to eventually achieve the 20 kph target speed for Rover on Mars:

A random thought just popped into my head. Could you mine bitcoins more cost effectively and without using so much energy? Would your chip do that better?

Well, it’s a really good question – and I always hate saying it’s a good question because I know that’s why you asked it. The difference between computing, and even in a GPU or a CPU, because we work like the brain, we’re not doing math. Your brain doesn’t really do 1 plus 1 equals 2. Your brain has a spike math that recognises I learned this when I was a kid, 1 plus 1 equals 2. We don’t do computation. That’s why it’s extremely low power. What we could do in crypto or just blockchain generally, we will never be the solution to calculate the transaction, 1 plus 1 equals 2. What we can do and what the technology is exceptional at is recognising competing patterns.

So as this crypto environment matures or blockchain more generally, because it’s not just with respect to currency, blockchain is being applied to many other avenues as well, is we can recognise repeating patterns. We could do that for Blockchain and we could say, if there was a very high density of transactions with a very similar pattern being executed, we could do it for cyber security where we could recognise patterns for denial of service attacks, malware attacks.

More generally, harkening back to crypto, fintech or financial technology generally. High frequency trading patterns, people want to know what those patterns are so they can forecast what their future transaction should be or they want to intersect somebody else that’s trying to do exactly the same thing. So, the technology is not about compute, it’s about recognising repeating patterns.

Just before we get onto some other matters, another thought that occurs to me is, what if we could combine your technology and Peter’s ideas with quantum computing?

That could be huge. There’s always going to be kind of a side by side environment. Even if we look at today, some of our engagements because of this ability to do vision exceptionally well – we’re being approached by major automobile manufacturers around the world. Detroit, Germany… Again, we’re never going to do the compute, we’re going to recognise very quickly and very efficiently a pattern. So, we likely will sit side by side during the short to mid term, we’ll sit side by side with a CPU or a GPU, they’ll be crunching numbers and we’ll be functioning like a brain doing the thinking…

Ubiquitous will need an expanded definition everywhere just does not seem enough where Brainchip's AKIDA technology family is concerned.

FF, every time I see that you have posted I get excited to know what extra info, examination, proof, or dot joining you have achieved on the pathway to proving that we are running a one horse race, the other runners are donkeys. Trouble is for them, we are the only punters that can see that one horse.

FF, every time I see that you have posted I get excited to know what extra info, examination, proof, or dot joining you have achieved on the pathway to proving that we collectively are running virtually a one horse race, the other runners are donkeys. Trouble is for them, we are the only punters that can see that one horse.

The trouble with lapping the field is that a casual observer has no idea just how far in the lead you are in fact they can even think you are coming last.

It happened to me during a Commonwealth games track cycling event. Turned on the TV and I thought in a team sprint that the Aussies were coming last and I initially urged them to at least try as it was the bell lap and they seemed to be sitting back but they had lapped their competitors and won by a lap to move into the semi finals.

The WANCAs have no official idea and are now just playing dumb according to Blind Freddie .

He claims it is an easy gig for them as they are type cast method actors feeding of each other’s ignorance.

AKIDA BALLISTA

By the way for newer investors the former CEO Mr. Dinardo was playing doggo (Aussie slang for taking one for the team) in this interview by denying vehemently that AKIDA can do maths.

AKIDA does not do maths for the purpose of processing but can do mathematics if required confirmed by Peter van der Made in a question I asked him from the floor at the 2019 AGM and independently by Sandia Labs in a peer reviewed published paper posted here a couple of times now.

Blind Freddie believes these sort of denials by the CEO were aimed at keeping the AKIDA Science Fiction under wraps for as long as possible to reduce unwanted interest.

@TechGirl See how Blind Freddie slipped that one in for me.

Very Merry Christmas to the Guild of Fellow Chippers,

Shall get in early with good will & gratuities, though shall, as always be following avidly, in the background.

Immense gratitude to all for the enduring outflow or reasearch generated & generously shared by all.

Brainchip is truely a beamoth in the making & to say one alone could do all the indepth reasearch & banking of knowledge / understanding on such a company which , in my opinion, no single sole could achieve alone ( short of Fact Finder $ Diogenese) it is with truely humbled appreciation to all that have contributed to this forum, and generously created by
Zebot , AKA LEGEND .

May 2023 be all we wish for & then some.
Wishing all a immensely gratifying year to come & may all our dreams & outcomes in life eventuate.

Truely a unique global gathering of individuals.

Also like to wish Brainchip management & employees all over the world the best for the coming year & all that's to come.

*Cortical columns ( Akida 2000) no good sitting on the test bench, Bring forth. Naturaly once sufficiently patented.

Go forth & be merry all.

This experimental work uses BrainScale 2 but yet again it is obvious the the commercial applications are going to be served best by a Commercial Off the Shelf IP with all the necessary spike converters built in with software simulation and a MegaChips or Edge Impulse engineering design team ready to assist and TSMC and Intel geared up and ready to go.

For those who don’t know reading the following should allow for an understanding of why UBIQUITOUS really is just not big enough for AKIDA technology:

“The equalizer is a device that attempts to reverse the distortion incurred by a signal transmitted through a channel. In digital communication its purpose is to reduce inter symbol interference to allow recovery of the transmit symbols.”

Equalizer

The work of Equalizers is to reverse the distortion in a signal thereby reducing signal noise. Different Equalizers are used for different purposes.

blog.oureducation.in

Anyway this is the conclusion reached by the researchers:

V. CONCLUSION
In this work we introduced an equalizer based on an SNN and inspired by the structure of the DFE. Furthermore, we pro- posed ternary encoding, which is a bipolar encoding based on a quantizer. We compared our proposed approach against linear equalizers, the DFE and ANN-based equalizers. Our proposed approach is able to execute equalization for various frequency- selective channels, clearly outperforming linear equalizers and with similar performance than the DFE and ANN-based methods. We furthermore showed that ternary encoding is a robust and fast encoding technique, that can outperform log- scale encoding. This work lays the fundamentals for future energy efficient communication receivers that use neuromor- phic hardware based on spikes that promise significantly lower energy consumption than traditional receiver circuits”

I am starting to sound like I have shares in Brainchip and want others to understand its potential. In fact I do and I do.

PS: If it all seems a bit dry the fact that the Global Telecommunications industry is already a multi trillion dollar playground for Brainchip might enliven your enthusiasm:

Seems we are all going to have a lot more time on our hands to be, well, human.

Coital columns sounds like it might finish us off as a species though.
