The Facts:

Rob who is a dentist because he keeps his identity secret has listed his house for sale. Rob spent a great deal of time researching his local agents and chooses Browns because they have the highest number of sales and listings in the last 12 months and the principle has received industry awards and has hundreds of compliments on his web page from happy vendors and purchasers complementing him and his team for their honesty and service.

As a result Rob tells Browns that he is in a hurry to sell his house and for the best possible price but he is stressed financially and will need to sell regardless of price. Browns advise Rob that in this market sales are occurring but days on market has increased and so given his circumstances the best strategy is to go to auction with a short but intensive marketing campaign and a number of open houses both on the weekend and weekdays leading up to the auction. Rob was impressed and signs the sales and auction agreement.

Rob a week later is having a coffee at his local café and starts talking to a complete stranger about real estate and mentions he has his house going to auction in two weeks. The stranger replies “I hope you do not have that useless mob Browns doing the auction. They are the worst agents I have seen in 30 years of being involved in real estate investing.”

The stranger is called for his takeaway coffee and leaves the café. Rob has no idea who this person was or what his motivation is but starts to worry about his opinion even though it is completely anonymous and directly opposed to everything he has discovered and his personal opinion having spoken with Browns.

The following day is the first open for inspection. Worried Rob parks up the road to watch. It is a Thursday and Browns have told him that being Thursday there is unlikely to be many people inspecting but it is important to get the message out as passing motorists will see the signs and start to investigate the online sales.

Even though Rob has been told this he becomes worried when only a couple of cars arrive and only a few people enter the property and he then starts to think that the stranger may have been correct.

Rob starts to ask friends and relatives if they think he has chosen the wrong agent. None of these persons live in his area and they all have no knowledge of the agents or real estate but some still venture opinions because everyone is entitled to hold and give an opinion.

They are of limited emotional intelligence and do not consider the consequences of giving such ill-considered uninformed opinions and when one is asked by his wife why he said what he did to Rob he said why would he take any notice of me anyway.

Unfortunately Rob does to the extent that it fuels his anxiety and he starts to worry so much he is loosing sleep. He reads negative things in the press about the real estate market and about a dishonest agent in another city and ignores that the sales figures for his area continue to exceed the national average and his agents excellent reputation. He completely ignores all the evidence that Browns keep performing and telling the truth to their customers.

The next open for inspection is on Saturday and this time the agent arrives and tells Rob that he expects a significant number of people to turn up because of the telephone and email traffic they have had. When Rob is leaving he notices a number of cars parked in the street and people milling around at the gate. Rob leaves.

The agent sets up the house and then positions himself at the front door ready to declare the house open. What the agent did not see was a shadowy male figure at the side window of the house watching as he went about his duties and that immediately he went out the front door that this shadowy figure quickly enter via the back door and relieved himself on the loungeroom coffee table and defecate on the carpet in front of the fireplace before quickly exiting out the back door and leaving by the side gate.

This shadowy figure then waited until all of the interested purchasers had entered to inspect the property whereupon he places notices under the wipers of the parked vehicles maligning the honesty and competency of Browns and recommending another property that is open for inspection with another agent two streets away claiming it represents much better value for money.

The question for you to answer is who is most likely to be the shadowy figure:

1. Is it Rob the home owner with the most at stake?

2. Is it a rival real estate agent trying to break into the area and attempting to destroy Browns reputation?

3. Is it the anonymous stranger who for his own personal reasons wants to ruin Rob’s chances of a sale to pick up a bargain having discovered that Rob has to sell regardless of price?

4. Is it a 'good' Samaritan trying to help Rob by exercising a right to free vandalism and speech?
Welcome back FF.
Taking care of business in a timely fashion, be flexible, proactive, have a plan, don’t panic will keep you up to speed and possibly ahead of the game, back yourself and your decisions. This gives you more time to deal with the guy stabbing you in the back.

Welcome back FF.
Hope you've had a good break and are refreshed and relaxed.
Could in theory be any of the above I suppose, but personally I like the sound of number 3, the mysterious stranger with the turd in the lounge room. 🤣
Am a bit leery around good Samaritans these days which is a damn shame.

The concern about NDAs always amuses me.

For the past 70 plus years we’ve had the biggest NDA regarding UFOs…I mean UAPs. What a clever re-branding to ease us away from the stigma.

NDAs will always exist and Brainchip appear to be VERY careful in order to keep trust with companies involved. We didn’t even really discover crumbs in regards to VVDN, Ai Labs etc. What is really happening behind closed doors? Time will tell but much like the current UAP events unfolding…I’ve got a feeling there is massive news on both fronts that will rock the general public and shareholders. With AFRL & NASA involved…the two topics may not be entirely unrelated.

Okay, I will remove my tin foil hat now.

I find the complete absence of any information about LSTM & Transformers in this podcast extremely exciting.

Previously Peter van der Made said as Acting CEO AKD 2000 was ready to go to engineering shortly.

Ken Scarince explaining the payments recorded in the half yearly said they had bought and paid for all the necessary third party IP for AKD 2000.

Rob Telson was excited in the Carnegie Mellon podcast about transformers for natural language processing.

Anil Mankar said at 2021 Ai Field day there would be a little bit of LSTM in AKD1500.

As a matter of proven science and engineering there are multiple papers supporting that CNN, RNN & SNN are compatible with LSTM and Transformers.

NOW COMPLETE SILENCE. THIS SILENCE HAS TO BE SIGNIFICANT in my opinion.

As for whether this Podcast was just fluff I will remind everyone that various posters here have lauded the ability of Peter van der Made to set out a timetable for the completion of his vision and marvelled that since he did so back in 2015 he has met every technology development target yet those same posters have not given Peter van der Made's statement that AGI of the type he described will be achieved by Brainchip in 2030 approximately. If Bill Gates made the same statement imagine how the World's press would respond.

The third and compelling piece of information in this Podcast comes from the clear statement that by producing AKD1500 without a CPU in fully digital format in 22nm at Global Foundries Brainchip will be swiping the feet out from under all those claiming to be able to produce SNN in analogue as no one developing analogue SNN for the edge can offer such flexibility and scalability because of the yet to be overcome difficulties involved in producing analogue chips.

@Diogenese has expanded on this numerous times and multiple papers have been posted together with links on HC and TSEx. This revealed FACT is SIGNIFICANT and those suggesting it is a fluff podcast clearly have no idea about AKIDA technology revolution and should refrain from commenting until they do. SCIENCE is not about lay opinions.

While not spoken of in great detail at 22nm from Global Foundries the reduction of leakage involved in their design ordinarily produces up to a 70% improvement in power use of a traditional von Neumann designed chip.

This is a well known and understood FACT that anyone and everyone in the semiconductor space just knows so when all those on the Podcast glossed over this FACT and spoke to the huge power saving advantage of AKIDA technology they most likely thought that even your average retail investor in Brainchip would understand what a further up to 70% power saving is not fluff and will mean that when Brainchip presents the AKD1500 to the World it will create ripples throughout the semiconductor industry.

The already inconceivable science fiction of AKD1000 at 300 megahertz outperforming a GPU running at 900 megahertz just gets blown out into something that is beyond Edge Impulses understanding of what constitutes science fiction. Imagine the reaction that Nviso will have to what AKD1500 can do????

This is my opinion only so feel free to urinate all over these known provable FACTS for your own malicious purposes and continue to claim this was just a fluff Podcast.

IMO..... IS THERE ANY NEWS HEADING OUR WAY ...

WHAT ARE THE CHANCES THAT MERCEDES BENZ ....

Could possibly mention "Brainchip" once again in their upcoming MB Strategy Update for the Mercedes -Benz Operation System MB.OS on the 22nd February 2023 in Sunnyvale California USA.

Is this for who and where our Akida 1500 will be put to good use..??
After all, MB want to keep control over "the brain and the central nervous system of the vehicles of the future" - as Ola Källenius recently explained to the Handelsblatt .


IMO..... Wouldn't it be nice to get some good news before the Annual Report comes out sometime this week and well before the upcoming AGM.

My view on this mornings Podcast.
I did have a little chuckle to myself at 6.57am Perth time when I noticed that the video had been up for 2 minutes still showing No Views !

Anyway, I really enjoyed all 3 company staff talking in a relaxed, clear and confident manner, Peter was looking smart as usual, clearly answered/ commented on different topics that Rob raised, having never heard Nandan speak before, I really thought he came across very well, he was clear and extremely thoughtful when giving his responses, yet another excellent new hiring this year!

"Consumer Based" "Industrial Based" "Expectation of High Volume"

And that's our game, IP Licenses that will target those two above markets and deliver "High Volume" which in turn equals further down the track,
"Higher Royalty Streams".

If you listened carefully to Peter near the end, he was very clear in maintaining what his main goal has always been, that being, driving home the
point that Brainchip is and has always been about "Beneficial AI" caring for the masses not just the elite.

A machine that continues to learn and learn, to continue to become more and more efficient in what it's job is, that is ultimately the type of machine that humans will want to maintain control over, NOT the other way around.

A completely different approach or thought process than say, Elon Musk!

Finally, have we come a long way since 2015/16 ? I personally think that we have, check out the quality of our staff, the professionalism, the work ethic, that's ALWAYS been the reason why I bought shares in a young Brainchip in the first place.

Love Brainchip.. Tech :love:(y);)

This reads to me that Mercedes Benz CLA 2023 updated model will have

HOME/CAR NEWS/MERCEDES-BENZ/CLA

2024 Mercedes-Benz CLA spied​

The Mercedes-Benz CLA should follow its A-Class sibling with greater electrification, updated in-car tech, and modestly refreshed styling.

William Stopford

The shapely Mercedes-Benz CLA is set for a nip-and-tuck, with prototypes spied featuring modest exterior tweaks.
These include a restyled front bumper, tweaked grille, new alloy wheels, and what appear to be revised headlight and tail light graphics.
These changes also grace the rakish CLA Shooting Brake, which isn’t sold in Australia.
The updated CLA range will reportedly debut either early in 2023 or around mid-year.

Most petrol models will reportedly feature electrification in the form of a 48V mild-hybrid system and belt-driven starter-generator, as with the related A-Class that was updated for 2023.

The Joy is in the detail: Every detail of the new CR-V has been designed make your journeys more enjoyable. Download the Honda CR-V Brochure to find out more.
In the A-Class’s case, only the flagship Mercedes-AMG A45 S misses out on the mild-hybrid tech.
The A-Class’s new 48V system can also support the engine with an additional 10kW “when starting off”.
A plug-in hybrid, the CLA250e, is also currently available in markets like Europe. It could receive the same updates as the A250e, which received a 15.6kWh battery, up to 82km of range, and standard 11kW AC charging capability as part of its mid-life update.

Inside, the CLA’s infotainment system is expected to get the latest MBUX interface.





This includes artificial intelligence (AI) capable of machine learning, new customisation options, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as enhanced performance and – in Europe at least – the option of a fingerprint sensor for the identification and authorisation of the driver.
Other technology updates for the A-Class include available Active Steering Control – Mercedes’ term for adaptive lane centring – and a new 3D function for the surround-view camera.

Mercedes-Benz will debut a new MMA architecturefor small cars in 2024, which it says will underpin only four vehicles – down from the seven on the current MFA2 underpinnings.
It’s part of a push by the three-pointed star brand to focus on more profitable higher-end vehicles and increase the average sale price of its repositioned Entry Luxury models.
It’s aiming to record higher profit margins on those vehicles, as part of a broader push by the company to reach an operating margin target of around 14 per cent by the middle of the decade in favourable market conditions or eight per cent in “very unfavourable” conditions.

It currently offers the A-Class hatch and sedan, CLA four-door coupe and Shooting Brake wagon, B-Class MPV, and GLA and GLB crossovers.
Mercedes-Benz also offers electric versions of the latter two, the EQA and EQB.
A report from last June indicated Mercedes-Benz would axe the popular A-Class and considerably lower-volume B-Class but retain the GLA, GLB and CLA – including, perhaps surprisingly, the Shooting Brake that isn’t offered in markets like North America or Australia.

Well we know that MB stated a desire to standardize componentry, and we know about "Hey Mercedes!" and Akida can also do ML (driver recognition?), and "enhanced performance" (latency/power) as in-cabin features ...

"Inside, the CLA’s infotainment system is expected to get the latest MBUX interface.
This includes artificial intelligence (AI) capable of machine learning, new customisation options, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, as well as enhanced performance and – in Europe at least – the option of a fingerprint sensor for the identification and authorisation of the driver.
Other technology updates for the A-Class include available Active Steering Control – Mercedes’ term for adaptive lane centring – and a new 3D function for the surround-view camera
."

... but active steering control requires sophisticated external sensors (LiDaR/camera/radar, ...). Valeo Scala 3 LiDaR may include Akida.

... and we could see this by mid-2023?

The short-term pain is that this is still under NDA with MB controlling the news flow.

Time for a reality check:

Do you know how many frogs that princess had to kiss before she hit the jackpot?
Thank Dodgy Knees.

Back in the mid 1990's the latest IT buzz was about electronic commerce. But there was one significant problem. At that time websites were unable to let a user "maintain state" between pages, meaning the data you entered in one section of the site (e.g. the catalogue) was lost when you navigated to another page (e.g. the checkout). This seem almost unbelievable now but believe me it was a real problem back in the day.

Then we introduced a development and deployment environment call "WebSpeed" (google it) which provided a solution to the problem. Why do that? Well, we had an extensive VAR network that was clambering for a workable and affordable solution to what had been a roadblock to the widespread implementation of e-commerce - which was at the top of many of their customer's must do list. It quickly became a great success.

The difference with AKIDA getting to market is twofold. viz;
  1. There was no existing VAR channel (aka eco-system) through which the product could be introduced and
  2. As some here refer to it as, AKIDA is to many in the IT industry "science fiction".
Both of those problems were always going to take time and skill to overcome. There can be no doubt that PVDM and AM are visionaries - what they have achieved technically is amazing. So amazing it seems that, apparently, many in the industry either don't believe or are keeping their heads well and truly in the sand. Hello Elon...........

I maintain that management had/has underestimated the task in hand of commercialisation of a ground breaking technology. PVDM should never have uttered the words "explosive sales" and SH should not have told us to "watch the financials." Both of those comments/statements smack of over-promising and under-delivering on the commercial front. Trust is a very fragile thing and saying things like that and not delivering shakes trust. I had my doubts about our CEO's appointment from the outset because his CV does not show experience in taking a revolutionary product to market before. He has plenty of commercial experience and success with existing products/vendors but not with something like AKIDA. I suspect he's learning many lessons, particularly around how to be a public company CEO. In my opinion the one member of mgt who seems to understand appropriate messaging at this stage of the company's development is RT.

As I've said recently, I hope the yearly contains evidence of concrete progress on the commercial front. Not just partnerships and back slapping about how great AKIDA is, but some meat on the bones. I'm hungry..........

The incoherent ramblings of an anonymous internet person so please don't consider anything as advice.

I'm no chip engineer, but I couldn't imagine the difficulty of integrating an analog IP into a client's desired CPU or custom processor die. This should mean any analogue SNN accelerator would have to be on a separate chip and carry all the associated performance bottlenecks and power overheads. Akida digital architecture, now proven at GF's 22nm FD-SOI, would allow tighter and faster integration for these types of applications.

I find the complete absence of any information about LSTM & Transformers in this podcast extremely exciting.

Previously Peter van der Made said as Acting CEO AKD 2000 was ready to go to engineering shortly.

Ken Scarince explaining the payments recorded in the half yearly said they had bought and paid for all the necessary third party IP for AKD 2000.

Rob Telson was excited in the Carnegie Mellon podcast about transformers for natural language processing.

Anil Mankar said at 2021 Ai Field day there would be a little bit of LSTM in AKD1500.

As a matter of proven science and engineering there are multiple papers supporting that CNN, RNN & SNN are compatible with LSTM and Transformers.

NOW COMPLETE SILENCE. THIS SILENCE HAS TO BE SIGNIFICANT in my opinion.

As for whether this Podcast was just fluff I will remind everyone that various posters here have lauded the ability of Peter van der Made to set out a timetable for the completion of his vision and marvelled that since he did so back in 2015 he has met every technology development target yet those same posters have not given Peter van der Made's statement that AGI of the type he described will be achieved by Brainchip in 2030 approximately. If Bill Gates made the same statement imagine how the World's press would respond.

The third and compelling piece of information in this Podcast comes from the clear statement that by producing AKD1500 without a CPU in fully digital format in 22nm at Global Foundries Brainchip will be swiping the feet out from under all those claiming to be able to produce SNN in analogue as no one developing analogue SNN for the edge can offer such flexibility and scalability because of the yet to be overcome difficulties involved in producing analogue chips.

@Diogenese has expanded on this numerous times and multiple papers have been posted together with links on HC and TSEx. This revealed FACT is SIGNIFICANT and those suggesting it is a fluff podcast clearly have no idea about AKIDA technology revolution and should refrain from commenting until they do. SCIENCE is not about lay opinions.

While not spoken of in great detail at 22nm from Global Foundries the reduction of leakage involved in their design ordinarily produces up to a 70% improvement in power use of a traditional von Neumann designed chip.

This is a well known and understood FACT that anyone and everyone in the semiconductor space just knows so when all those on the Podcast glossed over this FACT and spoke to the huge power saving advantage of AKIDA technology they most likely thought that even your average retail investor in Brainchip would understand what a further up to 70% power saving is not fluff and will mean that when Brainchip presents the AKD1500 to the World it will create ripples throughout the semiconductor industry.

The already inconceivable science fiction of AKD1000 at 300 megahertz outperforming a GPU running at 900 megahertz just gets blown out into something that is beyond Edge Impulses understanding of what constitutes science fiction. Imagine the reaction that Nviso will have to what AKD1500 can do????

This is my opinion only so feel free to urinate all over these known provable FACTS for your own malicious purposes and continue to claim this was just a fluff Podcast.

The Facts:

Rob who is a dentist because he keeps his identity secret has listed his house for sale. Rob spent a great deal of time researching his local agents and chooses Browns because they have the highest number of sales and listings in the last 12 months and the principle has received industry awards and has hundreds of compliments on his web page from happy vendors and purchasers complementing him and his team for their honesty and service.

As a result Rob tells Browns that he is in a hurry to sell his house and for the best possible price but he is stressed financially and will need to sell regardless of price. Browns advise Rob that in this market sales are occurring but days on market has increased and so given his circumstances the best strategy is to go to auction with a short but intensive marketing campaign and a number of open houses both on the weekend and weekdays leading up to the auction. Rob was impressed and signs the sales and auction agreement.

Rob a week later is having a coffee at his local café and starts talking to a complete stranger about real estate and mentions he has his house going to auction in two weeks. The stranger replies “I hope you do not have that useless mob Browns doing the auction. They are the worst agents I have seen in 30 years of being involved in real estate investing.”

The stranger is called for his takeaway coffee and leaves the café. Rob has no idea who this person was or what his motivation is but starts to worry about his opinion even though it is completely anonymous and directly opposed to everything he has discovered and his personal opinion having spoken with Browns.

The following day is the first open for inspection. Worried Rob parks up the road to watch. It is a Thursday and Browns have told him that being Thursday there is unlikely to be many people inspecting but it is important to get the message out as passing motorists will see the signs and start to investigate the online sales.

Even though Rob has been told this he becomes worried when only a couple of cars arrive and only a few people enter the property and he then starts to think that the stranger may have been correct.

Rob starts to ask friends and relatives if they think he has chosen the wrong agent. None of these persons live in his area and they all have no knowledge of the agents or real estate but some still venture opinions because everyone is entitled to hold and give an opinion.

They are of limited emotional intelligence and do not consider the consequences of giving such ill-considered uninformed opinions and when one is asked by his wife why he said what he did to Rob he said why would he take any notice of me anyway.

Unfortunately Rob does to the extent that it fuels his anxiety and he starts to worry so much he is loosing sleep. He reads negative things in the press about the real estate market and about a dishonest agent in another city and ignores that the sales figures for his area continue to exceed the national average and his agents excellent reputation. He completely ignores all the evidence that Browns keep performing and telling the truth to their customers.

The next open for inspection is on Saturday and this time the agent arrives and tells Rob that he expects a significant number of people to turn up because of the telephone and email traffic they have had. When Rob is leaving he notices a number of cars parked in the street and people milling around at the gate. Rob leaves.

The agent sets up the house and then positions himself at the front door ready to declare the house open. What the agent did not see was a shadowy male figure at the side window of the house watching as he went about his duties and that immediately he went out the front door that this shadowy figure quickly enter via the back door and relieved himself on the loungeroom coffee table and defecate on the carpet in front of the fireplace before quickly exiting out the back door and leaving by the side gate.

This shadowy figure then waited until all of the interested purchasers had entered to inspect the property whereupon he places notices under the wipers of the parked vehicles maligning the honesty and competency of Browns and recommending another property that is open for inspection with another agent two streets away claiming it represents much better value for money.

The question for you to answer is who is most likely to be the shadowy figure:

1. Is it Rob the home owner with the most at stake?

2. Is it a rival real estate agent trying to break into the area and attempting to destroy Browns reputation?

3. Is it the anonymous stranger who for his own personal reasons wants to ruin Rob’s chances of a sale to pick up a bargain having discovered that Rob has to sell regardless of price?

4. Is it a 'good' Samaritan trying to help Rob by exercising a right to free vandalism and speech?

Good to have your reasoned analysis back FF.

An important factor about Akida's low power usage is in connexion with the 3D IC tech which stacks 2 or more functional layers on top of each other.

In a 3-layer arrangement, where each layer generates significant heat, the middle layer is at risk of overeating because its own heat cannot readily dissipate because of the layers it is sandwiched between, both of which also generate heat.

So having Akida as the internal layer would be of great advantage.

Thus you could have a sensor layer (Prophesee), an inference layer (Akida) and an implementation layer (SiFive RISC-V).

Such an arrangement would not be limited to a Prophesee sensor. It could equally be a radar sensor, a camera, or any other sensor.

Welcome back FF....During your absence from this forum Brainchip released their Whitepaper on edge AI benchmarking. I thought that this indicated how important it was to have a paper to put in front of customers so they can easily see the benefits of our technology relative to our competitors who can provide solutions but not with the same efficiency and performance. This paper in my opinion was a masterstroke in marketing and hopefully it is having a positive influence in our success since its release. Clearly all the smoke and mirrors in the industry where all "the shadowy figures" lurk has been a hurdle to accelerating our commercialisation. Do you agree and what were your thoughts at the time?

😂 Cheers mate, I feel the fork in the road is approaching for me personally and will give it more time as my trigger points are yet to be hit as explained in my previous post. It's a stock that I've held longer than any other and I do get these things take time but we are now in the commercialisation phase and uptake of product is needed in the near future, near future for me Is a time frame of around about a year and a bit for me from here.
Your mileage may vary.
And it doesn't have to be massive explosion of sales I just want to see that ball rolling
Agreed in regards to the ball rolling I have had the stock since early 2015 when I was at uni so fortunately my time horizon is reasonably long. I think as things are unfolding we are learning more about time lines and how the industry works.

I’m not trying to say what anyone should do but not waiting until we get and idea of the uptake via renesas who seem to be the closer to market is completely ludicrous in my opinion.

It is indeed good to see FF back. And presenting well reasoned observations. The thing I have a problem with is this. If AKD1500 is competitively so important, why is the company not saying so publically. Stealth marketing?? FFS, someone at BRN start waving the flag!!!!
