We wish. It is good but it also just makes stuff up a lot of the time. I asked it to write a property listing for my place and apparently I have a private balcony off my bedroom, sauna and gym… (I have none of these)
If you add in the disclosure potential for balcony, sauna and gym

Are your comments
'What PVDM and Brainchip have, are and will be achieving is simply mind-blowing'
based on evidence from the following:

''We are excited to join our partners in Las Vegas during CES to showcase how combining BrainChip's Akida with their technologies delivers leading edge AI solutions," said Rob Telson, BrainChip Vice President of Ecosystem and Partnerships. "We look forward to demonstrating these capabilities in person."

Has anyone seen or got any feedback from the demonstrations with our 'partners'. All I can see so far is people trying to join dots and mentions of NDA's again.

AKIDA might well be science fiction but we need it to be science fact. The standout CES article on the news last night was a self driving stroller - wtf.
Unrealistic expectations of CES by some people on this forum is for Akida to be mentioned in keynote presentations by any and all companies speaking.

Mercedes let the cat out of the bag mentioning Brainchip a good while ago, also released a poll that the topic of neuromorphic won and STILL haven’t released a discussion about the topic…the silence says it all. They are keeping the secret sauce, secret, until they are ready in their marketing campaign.

If you are expecting feedback from Brainchip and/or it’s partners to disclose what potential customers displayed interest in our tech, you are just leaving yourself open to disappointment. Look how long it has taken for Socionext to begin a relationship with Brainchip and the time it took their product to come to market that has our tech in it. No slight on them at all, but that’s the product life cycle of something so complex with an early customer (imagine all the kinks that need ironing out, learning how to approach problems and optimise processes with one of your very first customers).

We are still in the midst of commercialisation - our tech has already been validated by so many major players (We’ve just joined Intel Foundry Services if you missed that), strong partnerships forming (NVISIO, Edge Impulse) who ooze enthusiasm about Akida, and neuromorphic technology starting to gain mainstream appeal. Given the limited time in a work day, what more do you expect from our company in such an important growth stage, in these economic circumstances and with a war raging?

I find it uncanny that several years ago there was almost no mention of NN and now all the big companies have incorporated NN onto their products.

Now NXP has them too?

Thinking about development timelines for companies being presented with science fiction by Brainchip consider this little bit of history.


Though this is speculation this European Automotive manufacturer is most likely Mercedes Benz.

FEEDBACK took five calendar years to be given to the public at CES 2022.

It took five calendar years to become an overnight success.

The Mercedes Benz EQXX has made it to Wikipedia and caught in the slipstream so has Brainchip:

“InteriorEdit

The EQXX also features neuromorphic computer systems which have been designed in partnership with Californian firm BrainChip to help drastically reduce the power consumption of interior components such as the large interior screen. The EQXX's neuromorphic computer systems run spiking neural networks, which simulate the structure of natural neural networksand assist features such as the voice user interface


I must comment that this Wikipedia entry confirms a significant role for AKIDA technology.

No and I was expecting a call from Socionext to tell me how many customers they had signed up as well. Just not good enough this lack of feedback????

It’s good to have a rant but can you actually articulate what feedback you are referencing???

Normally feedback about how a presentation at a trade fair went is given after the event concludes. Often sometime after when potential customer call backs have born fruit.

@Learning managed to access the Socionext booth and identify that they are presenting at least three AKIDA based technologies.

What more are you expecting?

Apple CEO to announce they were walking past the Socionext booth and he was blown over by AKIDA technology???

I was referring to feedback from any tsex members who may have some information on the presentations by BRN and their partners at CEX. i.e. has anyone on this forum seen any of these presentations and is therefore able to provide post presentation feedback to the rest of the group? Simple.....

Just posting here as an interesting article. I was aware cooling data centres was a problem but I didn’t realise just how much water some of them use to do it!


One of the major tensions in data center development is the large amount of water used to cool some data centers. Extreme heat and drought are raising the bar for fast-growing cloud computing platforms and data center developers.

“In just a few years half of the world’s population is projected to live in water-stressed areas, so to ensure all people have access to water, we all need to innovate new ways to help conserve and reuse this precious resource," said Adam Selipsky, the CEO of Amazon Web Services.

In many regions, data centers are now using air-cooled chillers that recirculate water in a closed loop, drastically reducing their water use. But in other regions, they continue to rely on evaporative cooling systems that are highly efficient, but require lots of water.

Major cloud platforms are making pledges to be water positive, and are beginning to disclose more information about their water use. This is progress, but is also a response to public pressure and lawsuits seeking information about community water impact. After years of saying its water use in some markets was a trade secret, Google recently shared data on its water usage, revealing that its data center fleet uses 4.3 billion gallons of water in 2021, which works out to an average daily water footprint of 450,000 gallons per data center.

That's a huge number, and Google sought to place it in the context of the business activity created by its services, noting that it's equivalent to the water used for 29 golf courses (context: there are more than 11,000 golf courses in the United States).

The Google data also illustrated how water use varies widely based on regional climates and cooling designs. The Google cloud campus in Iowa used more than 1 billion gallons of water in 2021, while a smaller campus in Atlanta had a net impact of 13 million gallons.

"The best approach depends on local factors — there is no one-size-fits-all solution," said Urs Holzle, the Senior Vice President, Technical Infrastructure at Google, in a blog post. "In many places, water is the most efficient means of cooling. When used responsibly, water cooling can play an important role in reducing emissions and mitigating climate change. Water-cooled data centers use about 10% less energy and thus emit roughly 10% less carbon emissions than many air-cooled data centers. In 2021, water cooling helped us reduce the energy-related carbon footprint of our data center portfolio by roughly 300,000 tons of CO2."

Yes, water usage is complicated. But as more areas face drought and water scarcity (like the Colorado Basin), data centers will face growing pressure to reduce their water impact. The sector has a proven ability to conserve resources through innovation and operational discipline, as seen in its extraordinary success in energy efficiency, which yielded $60 billion in savings as the industry's electricity use rose just 4 percent between 2010 and 2020, a decade of exponential growth in computing power.

The energy efficiency revolution was a response to public pressure and fears of regulation. Expect to see a similar wave of innovation in addressing water conservation in coming years, starting in 2023.

I'm just watching Chris Ciovacco's weekly video report on stocks. He offers two scenarios, the NASDAQ and the Dow.....

Screen Shot 2023-01-08 at 9.30.21 am.png

The NASDAQ recently printed a lower low. By comparison the Dow is printing higher lows and the chart is way more constructive. There can only be one winner, and I believe it will be the Dow, which in turn will create the pathway for the NASDAQ to rise. The reason I make this point is that stocks like Tesla, Microsoft, Apple and Amazon always fall further than most other companies. And when the market turns up, these same companies will be doing much of the heavy lifting. Same with our company. When the mood is bearish, shorters smash companies like Brainchip, but when the mood lifts these same companies will fly. Well, thats my theory anyway. :):)

If you do choose to watch the Ciovacco video, put the playback speed to 1.5. It just helps to jolly it along.

Yes if you are interested in feedback this article is popping up everywhere now as their network picks it up and it is circulated.

I'm sorry FF you seem to be hung-up on the use of the term 'feedback'. Perhaps I used it out of context, although I don't think so.

To avoid anymore confusion/ diversion I will rephrase my query to the group:

Does anyone know if AKIDA was specifically mentioned by our partners during the showcasing of the AKIDA technology as highlighted by Rob Telson prior to CES?

Apologies to who posted this- I forget who to credit for this screenshot I grabbed.

Socionext advertising our tech to taste, vibration analysis and facial recognition. NVISIO also featured running on Akida.

You will find if you DYOR, you can find evidence of Akida being showcased. Funnily enough, being a trade-only event, the showcase is for potential customers, not for you as a shareholder.

Also prophosee are displaying one of our uses as discovered by @Fullmoonfever but you can do a search for that one as I am heading out.

Yes and if you go to @Learning ‘s post he gives you a link to the Socionext booth that has Brainchip plastered all over it.

Years of a certain approach by different individuals colours my response when certain things are posted particularly when you linked a post complimenting @Learning ‘s post giving you the very thing you are asking people to provide and stating no one has provided it???

EVEN @Diogenese has posted favourably on @Learning ‘s post and what it discloses about Brainchip and Socionext.

We have also had posts here I think @chapman89 was one of the posters about Prophesee hiring a private suite and conducting 100 private meetings with potential customers including with respect to Brainchip’s and Prophesee room monitoring AKIDA powered sensor and stating that many of these meetings involved NDA agreements.

We have had Edge Impulse publicising what they and Brainchip are doing.

The conference is still ongoing.

So yes I was hung up on ‘feedback’ when you appeared to be turning a blind eye to what has been covered here by other posters.

I have managed to pick it all up even though I have been driving to and fro from Lake Macquarie to Sydney and repairing leaking cisterns and doing a range of other maintenance tasks.
