Intel loses $8B due to missed revenue targets. Job cuts announced, guidance amended downwards. Probably going to have to cut unprofitable and / or unproductive divisions and look for acquisitions to drive inorganic growth .

Intel reports 20% revenue drop with more bad news ahead

U.S. chipmaker aims to cut costs by $3bn in 2023 as demand weakens

Well maybe the chip shortage had something to do with that, and resulted in their in-house IFS.

But their CPU processors have hit a wall. A quick fix could be Akida IP, but they may need transformer capability?

Fantastic article @Mt09 that Renesas blessed/initiated. It is part of Renesas' marketing focus, to spread the word:
"We Renesas are in the Spiking Neuromorphic Industry"! My opinion/words, not theirs.

Key parts of the article that folks here might want to read:

Neuromorphic devices are event-based processors operating on non-zero events. Event-based convolution and dot products are significantly less computationally expensive since zeroes aren’t processed.

Furthermore, as a neuromorphic device’s process spikes, more constrained quantization can be used, such as 1-,2- and 4-bit quantization, versus the conventional 8-bit quantization on ANNs.

Moreover, because SNNs are incorporated into hardware, neuromorphic devices (such as Akida from Brainchip) have the unique capability of on-edge learning.

On this front, Renesas has acknowledged the vast potential of neuromorphic devices and SNNs. The company licensed a neuromorphic core from Brainchip, the world’s first commercial producer of neuromorphic IP.

Interesting ad appeared for me just then.

Morning Rise,

Actually I have, follow a few US doctors who work in the low carb space.

The good news is that J.Powell and team are sucking $$ out of the system with QT and interest rate rises. Have you noticed how many US firms are cutting staff numbers? Soon your average Joe won't have a job or the spare cash to buy luxury items like food. This will affect the supply/demand equation for eggs and the prices will drop.

Sounds terrible to be honest, yes have seen the massive layoffs that are occurring in the land of the free. America was a country I dreamed of living in as a youngster but these days wouldn't live there even if all bills were paid for life and a free house.

Good Afternoon Hamilton66,

DEFINITELY send this through to Director Tony Dawe, Brainchip Investor Relations, to pass on to CEO Sean Hehir.

Great video, & what a legend of a CEO taking these pricks to task.
Obviously one CEO who was not happy to let the share price do what the share price did.

Not shaw whether THE BULLDOG dose any business in Australia but myself as a holder in Brainchip would be 100% supportive in Brainchip Management engaging the services of such individual. Money well spent from this shareholders perspective.

Time to weed out these pests from sharemarkets and let the , True Market, value companys.

* One very interesting thing I just learnt from the above....

If Brainchip were to issue a Special Dividend this would flush out any naked shorting & also the synthetic s . Would properly F#$☆ them up , also create a whopping short squeeeeeeeze , as thay are potentialy playing with shares that don't even exist.

SPECIAL DIVIDEND of say $0.001 per Brainchip Share X roughly 1,850,000,000 total shares ( would actually be less as not all are converted or issued ) = $1,850,000.00 Au. = money well spent to clean up our registry & a little of a tickle to actual shareholders.

Do it Sean you know you want to.
I know I'm dying to watch these F$@☆'s try to cover.

Thankyou once again.

Regards,
Esq.

Hi @Esq.111 and @hamilton66
Thnx for posting these two videos, @hamilton66 .............. as you said, any stock holder ......... this is a must watch !!!

I agree @Esq.111 .............. this topic most certainly should be forwarded to our management team, because if they are not aware, then they certainly should be !

As shareholders of a listed company we have the right to be looked after by the companies CEO/BOD.
So, in the interest of "being looked after" i do feel our CEO/BOD should be following this up, and also making press releases that confirm they have and will continue to be active in doing so.

We ( those who watch the daily s/p movements ) are oh so familiar with the spoofing that is conducted on a daily basis.

@Esq.111 .................. maybe the CEO/BOD could start with the "ShareIntel " that was mentioned and pay ( THE BULLDOG ) a lawyer to see if they feel further action should be undertaken.

I for one will forward this to TD and im thinking many should do the same. We have a so called thousand eyes here, and i think this definitly should be confirmed by management that they ARE AWARE and taking action, as this is systemic not only in the US.

We have had what? .............. maybe a half dozen sentences, or should i say questions ( last podcast ) from our CEO this financial year, IMO that by far is not enough shareholder engagement from our CEO.
Many will say "Oh, NDAs etc" ............... IMO theirs plenty that could and should be communicated by Sean, without going into companies persa, but just a general chat about the health of the company and the focus of efforts being undertaken.
Id personally like to see a "Monthly Newsletter" .

Again thnx @hamilton66 ..................please continue to bring the development videos of this to us on TSE

Hi @mrgds

Last AGM we heard "share price will do what share price does".

I doubt they'll use company resources to fight shorts. It's just not viable. It's time consuming, resource draining and a fight they won't win. Seriously, shorting is here to stay whether people like it or not. Manipulation is here to stay whether people like it or not.

Why bother? They should bring in sales, revenue, IP contracts and shorts will be covered and thereby share holders rewarded.

Have you watched the 2 videos put up by @hamilton66 ?
As @esq said, ................. heres one CEO thats not going to let "THE S/P DO WHAT THE S/P WILL DO"
Now theres becoming a "CLASS ACTION " ............ awesome, get many company CEOs on task and it doesn"t cost each company much in the way of time or resources.
As i said .................. "CEOs/BODs have a obligation to their shareholders to protect the companies interest.
These types of activities can ruin companies.

Please dont stick your head in the sand,
Accepting the status quo will not change anything and im all for stamping out this corrupt activity !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I didn't say "the SP will do what SP does" quote.

A company top official did.

Good on the CHN ceo, I think there are another 2 companies fighting manipulation and defamation in my knowledge.

Just saying don't expect too much out of it. Manipulation usually takes shares from weak hands.
May be it's for the common good. Haven't done the research? Don't know what's going on with the company? Don't have the courage to ride the storm? Survival of the fittest may be for the common good.

Completely understand its not a popular opinion.


Edit: If someone has contacted Tony, please post the response if he's happy. I'd love to know company's stand on shorting. I'd say they would be concentrating on their job and not worry about markets, but wouldn't mind to hear from them.

OpenAI are aware of the shortcomings of ChatGPT:

ChatGPT: Optimizing Language Models for Dialogue (openai.com)

Introducing ChatGPT

We’ve trained a model called ChatGPT which interacts in a conversational way. The dialogue format makes it possible for ChatGPT to answer followup questions, admit its mistakes, challenge incorrect premises, and reject inappropriate requests.

openai.com

Methods

We trained this model using Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), using the same methods as InstructGPT, but with slight differences in the data collection setup. We trained an initial model using supervised fine-tuning: human AI trainers provided conversations in which they played both sides—the user and an AI assistant. We gave the trainers access to model-written suggestions to help them compose their responses. We mixed this new dialogue dataset with the InstructGPT dataset, which we transformed into a dialogue format.

To create a reward model for reinforcement learning, we needed to collect comparison data, which consisted of two or more model responses ranked by quality. To collect this data, we took conversations that AI trainers had with the chatbot. We randomly selected a model-written message, sampled several alternative completions, and had AI trainers rank them. Using these reward models, we can fine-tune the model using Proximal Policy Optimization. We performed several iterations of this process.


ChatGPT is fine-tuned from a model in the GPT-3.5 series, which finished training in early 2022. You can learn more about the 3.5 series here. ChatGPT and GPT 3.5 were trained on an Azure AI supercomputing infrastructure.

Limitations

ChatGPT sometimes writes plausible-sounding but incorrect or nonsensical answers. Fixing this issue is challenging, as: (1) during RL training, there’s currently no source of truth; (2) training the model to be more cautious causes it to decline questions that it can answer correctly; and (3) supervised training misleads the model because the ideal answer depends on what the model knows, rather than what the human demonstrator knows.

ChatGPT is sensitive to tweaks to the input phrasing or attempting the same prompt multiple times. For example, given one phrasing of a question, the model can claim to not know the answer, but given a slight rephrase, can answer correctly.

The model is often excessively verbose and overuses certain phrases, such as restating that it’s a language model trained by OpenAI. These issues arise from biases in the training data (trainers prefer longer answers that look more comprehensive) and well-known over-optimization issues.12

Ideally, the model would ask clarifying questions when the user provided an ambiguous query. Instead, our current models usually guess what the user intended.

While we’ve made efforts to make the model refuse inappropriate requests, it will sometimes respond to harmful instructions or exhibit biased behavior. We’re using the Moderation API to warn or block certain types of unsafe content, but we expect it to have some false negatives and positives for now. We’re eager to collect user feedback to aid our ongoing work to improve this system.

Iterative deployment

Today’s research release of ChatGPT is the latest step in OpenAI’s iterative deployment of increasingly safe and useful AI systems. Many lessons from deployment of earlier models like GPT-3 and Codex have informed the safety mitigations in place for this release, including substantial reductions in harmful and untruthful outputs achieved by the use of reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF).

On their CLIP page, they mention that that database took 256 GPUs 2 weeks to do the training, but I don't know if this is a reasonable comparison for GPT.
