I was just thinking again about something attributed to Brainchip founder and current CTO - PvdM. The comment and its significance has been rattling around in my head for months. I don't recall when he is "alledged" to have said it. I don't recall what precisely he said. It (my recollection of his words) is just a cloudy image rattling around in my head, like a re-occuring earworm, sort of. It dissappears for awhile, but then suddenly I find myself thinking about it again. Perhaps one of this forums other contributors can help me out here.
1) Did it actually happen and was it PvdM who said it? I sure think it was. This should be a relatively easy one for the 1,000 eyes.
2) When did he say it?
3) Why did he say it?
Number 3 above can be speculated about. Short of asking him directly why he said what I am remembering he said, we'll probably never know.
He has said a lot of things in the past, but two specific comments stand out for me. One is that there will be "explosive" sales. If he is a man of integrity and of good honest character, which I believe him to be, he would not say such a thing unless he believed it would be true. Unfortunately for us I don't think he said "when", however.
The second comment has to do with this recurring memory that keeps haunting me. Haunting is probably the wrong word, ....how about ruminate, ....yeah, ruminate. So what on earth do I keep ruminating about?
PvdM (I think) once said something to the effect of " ....the _____ doesn't realise or get how big of a thing this Megachips license or relationship is".
I paraphrased to the best of my memory, but I trust that many of you may be able to help me out here with what he actually said or wrote. However, I got the gist of it right I believe. Why would he say something like that?
Of all the things PvdM has said and written about, these two examples above are significant enough for me to continue to replay them in my mind, over and over again because they are incredibly important as we wait for market acceptance and recognition of our equity investment in Brainchip.
If Peter is that man of high integrity and honesty then these two comments must be true. They cannot be otherwise.
Combine that logic and Rene Haas' (ARM CEO) commentary about 3-5 year timeframes (say 4 years on average) for product conceptualization to actual production, throw in commentary from the esteemed Managing Director and Global Chief Technology Officer of Accenture - Jean-Luc Chatelain about what he see's as 2024 being a year in which the potential benefits of neuromorphic technology should help realize the benefits of artificial intelligence ,....well,.....
It really is hard for me at least to not get excited thinking about and anticipating what is to come.
With kind regards, ... dippY
