BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Fact Finder]

Thanks Superstar Fact Finder. I am glad you point this detail out for the newbies. The history of the ongoing Brainchip win, now partnership with Intel is amazing. It is fabulous news for us.

We have to communicate to new people to the BRN forum of excellence. I often try to write for the new person to this Brainchip explosion.

Thanks but far to much so I am obliged to offer the following:

“According to Davies, there are no intentions to market Loihi 2. “We’re still going to offer this as a research chip to research partners.” According to Davies, Loihi’s technology will likely first appear as an acceleration core on a system-on-chip running a specific algorithm, rather than as a general-purpose processor.

Even if Intel isn’t ready to make a profit from neuromorphic processors, that doesn’t imply others aren’t. In August, Sydney-based Brainchip received its first shipment of finalized event-based neural processor chips, with the goal of assisting clients in developing low-power systems that benefit from incremental and one-shot learning.”


We all know the lies we endured from the band of WANCAs over at HC and in the media about how we were deluded members of a cult emotionally vested in a meme stock irrationally thinking that Brainchip could possibly compete with Intel and Loihi 1 well here is Mike Davies own assessment of Loihi 1:

“Loihi systems have been used by more than 250 research partners for tasks such as piloting drones or robot arms, improving railway schedules, searching databases, and learning to recognize different aromas. “The results have been very promising,” Davies says. There were increases in energy efficiency and the amount of data required for the system to learn that were “orders of magnitude” in some cases. (The results will be published in the IEEE Proceedings in May 2021.)

However, these tests revealed a set of constraints that Davies and his team wished to solve in the following generation. For one reason, Davies claims that Loihi’s neural network model wasn’t flexible enough to achieve what Intel and its partners desired. They also discovered that Loihi’s calculations were limited by the binary spike model of brain activity, in which just the timing information was communicated from one neuron to the next. Congestion between many Loihi processors and difficulties integrating the system with conventional computers were also obstacles.”



So for all new holders who are not experienced yet in the ways of the stock market manipulators commonly referred to as WANCA's here there is one golden rule do not believe anything you read or are told until you have done your own research and confirmed from other sources the truth of what you have read or been told.

Do not believe me or anyone else here until you have done your own research. If I or anyone else puts up a link and claims to have read it and suggests what it proves do not accept this until you have read the link. People can innocently get things wrong and miss a word that changes the whole meaning of an article.

It is a fact that some manipulators will seek to gain your confidence by posting truthful opinions and supporting others but will then turn hoping to use their manufactured credibility to lead the gullible into error. So always DYOR.

My opinion only DYOR

Well wasn't really thinking of death rays and lasers at this point Dio and FF, was thinking along the lines of using simple Akida powered sensors to detect the presence of varroa mite in a hive.

There is a serious co-ordinated Gov't effort underway right now to prevent the spread of the varroa in the Australian apiary industry, Dio you actually mentioned "pollinators" in a recent post which led to my line of thought.

Without the pollination activities of our bee friends, Australia's agriculture industry would be seriously damaged. Major varroa invasions are affectting agriculture globally, Oz is one of the last places on earth in which the varroa hasn't yet had a serious impact on the local apiary industry.

Simple Akida powered sensors could placed upon hive entrances to detect presence of the mite, presently the efforts to control the spread of the mite, are made more difficult because all hives have to be physically inspected on a regular basis in infected/affected areas.

A simple solution to make control much more effective.

Yes. It should be easy to train Akida to recognize the infected bees and trigger a dormant radio transmitter to alert the bee-keeper.

Amazingly deep in thought. You might want to embellish a little. You often leave the audience waiting for more!

Keep it up!

 

[Fact Finder]

FF ........ this is currently being investigated / developed as we speak .... please see / Google the " Pruple Hive Project " maybe they could use Akida technology to improve their current results.

Thanks @Xray1 just read about the project at the following link thanks to your research. Sounds like a sensible use of Ai technology and beneficial but no Death Ray.

Purple Hive Project by B honey

B honey is committed to the local honey industry and is launching the Purple Hive Project to support the honey bees (Apis mellifera) – who are under significant threat of the Varroa Destructor (Varroa mite) in Australia.

Good morning,

So many companies, so many ideas to benefit society worldwide, the information posted earlier today by @thelittleshort was right
on point, Smart Agro.

Dream it... Imagine it... Believe it... We are Akida... We are going to be in Everything... Everywhere... (potentially).

There's room for many companies to share this pie, but one thing is for sure, Intel is by association with us, officially
moving up the future food chain, and don't they know it.

Research is one thing (just ask Peter) but having a commercial, fully functioning IP, that works better than earlier predicted,
is continually being advanced for the betterment of all mankind, well that's Brainchip, it's certainly not Intel, at this point in time.

"I believe that we have moved even further ahead".... (3years ++)

24 months of pure excitement is about to unfold, in my uneducated opinion

Just dipping into the brains trust, I seem to remember a graphic showing the Nintendo image when we were being talked about quite a few months ago. Do we think Nintendo has any currency? I hope so.

Possibly MegaChips?

May 27, 2022

"…By MegaChips partnering with BrainChip we can deliver customers highly sought-after edge AI solutions and expedite time to market," said Douglas Fairbairn, Director of Business Development for MegaChips LSI USA.

"Together we plan to develop innovative LSIs as the silicon partner of BrainChip, helping take customers from ideation to silicon.


Forward-looking statements in this section represent the judgment of MegaChips as of March 31, 2022.

MegaChips principally sells LSI for a game software storage (custom memory) for the amusement field; LSI for game consoles and peripheral devices; LSI for digital cameras and other image processing; and LSI for OA equipment. The percentage of net sales involving LSI for storing game software (custom memory) to Nintendo Co., Ltd. (“Nintendo”) is increasing and accounts for 87.8% of the sales for the current fiscal year.

The partnership was originally announced Nov 21st 2021 so was this enough time for Akida to be implemented into something MegaChips sells to Nintendo??

Two things I try to guard against in getting older:

1. Thinking I can still run across the main road near where I live and avoid walking to the traffic light controlled crossing; and

2. Not letting myself loose track of what a dollar is now no longer worth.

I know @TECH your 50 billion was intended as a joke but the reality is 50 billion is not what it used to be.

In the USA they now have lotteries where the first prize is over one billion dollars.

Just think about that.

Less than fifty lottery winners could pool their winnings and put $50 billion US on the table.

Merck just announced a licensing deal with a biotech company worth 9.3 billion US dollars and this is for a yet to be approved drug platform still in research without FDA approval.

What price does ubiquitous Ai with existing market traction through at least 16 major plays demand as a price.

The winnings of five, ten, fifteen, twenty, one hundred US lottery winners.

An Aussie cricketer is being paid $3 million to play a season of 20/20 cricket in India.

I think it is clear that the sophisticated technology semiconductor partners no longer consider AKIDA simply for ultra low power Edge computing and that it can and will be used far more widely.

This view will be further widened when next generation AKIDA technology with transformers and LSTM is publicly revealed.

I personally have no idea what Brainchip is worth but how can it not be worth a lot more than we think possible based on our limited knowledge of what we see on the surface.

Just like the iceberg the real value of Brainchip is hidden below the surface.

[Terroni2105]

thinking of Megachips …

We know BrainChip has partnered directly with CMU, RIT and Arizona State Uni for their University AI Accelerator Program.

But how about an indirect university connection, through Megachips, to Santa Clara University (SCU), situated in the heart of Silicon Valley 🫢

From Megachips website … (we’ve all read) “made significant investments in the US to identify key partners, build relationships with local universities, and acquire key talent in this space. In 2021, the company made multi-million-dollar investments in two key AI/IP partners, Brainchip and Quadric, to bolster its offerings in the Edge AI market. “

I suggest BrainChip will be getting some concomitant benefit from Megachips partnership with Santa Clara Uni.

Here’s a bit of info about the SCU masters degree on Robotics and Automation which commenced in 2021 … “the program will leverage the expertise and international reputation of the School of Engineering’s Robotic Systems Laboratory, which develops advanced robotic systems and automation technology for vehicles and instruments that operate on or in land, sea, air, and space. Examples of this work includes the development of deep-sea instruments and robots for the National Science Foundation, the design of agricultural field robots for several California growers, the development of AI-based robotic control algorithms for the Megachips Corporation, and the control of on-orbit spacecraft for NASA”.

Hi @Foxdog

I could say “all of the above” because these are all things that could be in someone’s plan.

But where I will start is with the why bother to have a plan.

We all are hopefully learning everyday from our life experience and in my Police career I had drummed into me the importance of operational planning to deal with emergency situations.

The reasoning behind this is very simple it is harder to think and easier to make mistakes in situations of stress.

So the best time to think and make decisions is during periods of calm when you can stand back and in your own time weigh all your options.

This idea carried over into my work as a prosecutor and then as a lawyer.

As a lawyer I quickly realised that when clients came to me looking for a solution to whatever their problem was it was incredibly rare for the client to actually have thought through what the solution would look like and where they would go once it was achieved.

Risk reward was a foreign concept which never entered their thinking.

For example in a simple personal injury case the risk you might think is clear you could loose.

This however is often not the greatest risk for the client the greatest risk is winning but not being awarded sufficient having regard to what it cost to win and then receiving a conservative assessment of their loss by the court leaving them with insufficient to achieve their goal.

Thus it can often be the case that taking an early offer of settlement for what seems to be a modest amount can best satisfy their goal.

What I discovered however was that the majority of my clients were so stressed at and during settlement negotiations they could not think properly about the risk reward even when laid out in front of them in black and white at the time an offer was made and being discussed.

It was apparent that I needed to educate the client from the moment they walked into my office about the need to have a plan should an offer of settlement be made to them. It is mostly the case that settlement offers have a time limit on acceptance often as tight as until close of business on the day of offer.

I see this as entirely analogous to buying shares in the hope they will appreciate in value.

At any point an announcement like the Mercedes Benz reveal can come out of left field and things go crazy and you have a very limited amount of time to make decisions under severe stress.

Someone who had a plan as simple as I will sell all my holding when it hits $2.00 and pay off my mortgage early and I am happy to wait five years would have been greatly advantages by putting that plan into immediate effect.

The person without a plan would likely have missed the opportunity by the time they decided what to do the opportunity would have been lost.

In fact I am sure like me you have read posts by some here saying ‘I wish I had …. when the price hit $2.34.’

Plans do not need to be complicated or clever.

All they need to be is made before the event.

The clever part is having a plan and executing it.

Buying 50,000 shares for your child’s long term financial future is a plan. But how simple and uncomplicated is such a plan.

Having a target value that will net you an amount to pay off your mortgage 30 years ahead of schedule is a plan.

Again very simple but nonetheless paying off your mortgage is life changing for most people. I know it was for my wife and I.

My personal situation and plan is peculiar to me and has no application to anyone else so has no value.

I am strange in this regard and have lots of factors in play that definitely are peculiar to me.

Suffice to say my plan is to create generational wealth. The first part of my plan involves trading to average down to increase my overall share portfolio. The second part is to continuously control risk by researching and reading everything I can about the companies I hold. I am not a set and forget investor.

Hi All

The CHATGpt discussions starting with @chapman89 had caught my imagination and having read Jordan B. Peterson’s book his video posted today led to some further reading and I discovered the following paper/blog thought piece.

I personally believe that this thought piece is a must read for a whole range of reasons one of which is related to investing and research.

The Shape of Code » The commercial incentive to intentionally train AI to deceive us

This piece makes clear that a political and moral framework can be programmed or developed into CHATGpt so that a narrative is produced regardless of the question asked.

So as an investor consider what such moral and political narratives would be pursued were you to ask the question which are the oil explorers with the largest reserves still to come on line that are available to invest in on the ASX?

What publicly listed biotechnology companies are working on brain computer interphases?

What if you asked is Brainchip a good company to invest in? Could you get a response framed by the morality of working with defence contractors?

Using Google you just get links not a programmed narrative based on political or moral constraints. This is an entirely new ball game.

This next step raises many questions we all need to individually understand and be aware of as the social engineering implications inherent in this technology advance are unprecedented.

Could a MF pay for a particular narrative to run within the system?

In China imagine what narrative could be propagated by such a system.

By chance whilst looking up something on agriculture, I came across the website of Andante ( not sure who they are ).

They’ve created a new startup company called Steerlight. Apologies if someone has already posted this info.

Yes. From my extremely limited exposure to ChatGPT (only on TSEx - my knee jerk response to the first example provided by (?) just after Tim Lewellynn's (nViso) enthusiastic endorsement) was that the responses were anodyne. I think the technology has a way to go before it can produce genuinely analytical deductions, let alone practical creativity, or even genuinely original idiomatic responses.

I don't think it will be vying with Samuel Johnson for authorship of Shakespeare's works any time soon.

Mind you, my prognostications about low earth satellites was wrong, so ... anything I say should be taken with a liberal dosing of NaCl.

And, as you say, it is susceptible to the biases of the controlling entity.

Thanks for the comprehensive response FF. There is always the fear of selling too early and missing out on potential future gains. I for one didn't sell at $2.34 as I was/am waiting for a much higher strike point. I have been buying throughout the retrace though as I'm certain this investment will surpass previous highs.

Interesting point about making a plan during periods of calm and relying on those choices at times when indecision would otherwise prevail. I guess the one biggest point, for me anyway, is remembering what I was aiming to achieve with any particular plan and then being satisfied when that plan comes to fruition - it's very easy to abandon a plan in lieu of greed. But for now $5.00, $7.50, $10.00 bring it on.
