Peter also talked a little about the 1500 architecture whereby he described an SNN core surrounded by a CNN wrapper (or CNN higher layers). I don’t remember AKD1000 being described this way? Could it be that in AKD1500 the CNN2SNN structure has been remodelled?
Could it mean an incoming CNN2SNN and an outgoing SNN2CNN? This may enable it to work with pre-existing (legacy) CNN-dependent software.

Luke Winchester has forgotten that just between Renesas and Megachips alone we would have 1%, but no mention of those companies or the fact that Renesas are currently taping out chips containing akida IP.

So yes, he is right in saying whoever can create low power solutions will be very lucrative 😉
He says we may need to raise capital in the future, totally oblivious to the fact, that we are in the middle of a capital call (which we had to make this year as part of the long standing agreement) and the fact that LDA Capital has a personal benefit and incentive of suppressing the price for this call..
Also admits he hasn't looked into the tech too deeply..

Just another WANKA.. (spelt correctly and sorry ZeebOt 😕..)

Edit.. Winchester yes that name is familiar, he is an OW 😛

The link has been pasted a couple times this morning but has been lost amongst the absolute waste of time shit that’s been posted all morning.
Could be exciting could be nothing. If they expand on the specs of the OS we might get a mention.
Thanks mate (y)

If someone uses BRN IP through a relationship with MegaChip we would not need to disclose that. BRN may not be aware of it till further down the product development lifecycle based on NDA with MegaChip and their client.

We have an agreement we have annouced to the market with MegaChip and that comes with (not seen by us) commercial terms for royalty as events trigger these payment. As shareholders unless a client shares this information we just need to look at the financials.

so yes the upcoming report could well have surprises but i dont have expectations here in this report.

I do keep coming back to PVDM comments around MegaChip. That the deal is transformational for BRN and the market does not as yet understand this. i have to think he knows and thinks before making such a statement. For example if he had a very good inclination that this would lead to BRN IP being in every future nintendo device in several years this is exactly what i would say to share my enthusiam with the restrictions of not being able to say everything i wanted to say.

What we do know is that MegaChip is pivoting their business to edge AI capabilities and have chosen BRN as their main technology in working with their customers to being new advanced products to market. https://www.theregister.com/2022/04/26/megachips_ai_partner_program/
That’s correct MegaChips can do their own IP deal or build a custom ASIC with one of their customers that contains akida and they don’t need to let us know about it, we will just see an increase in revenue from MegaChips each time they use akida ….that’s how I understand it to be.

I like to think PVDM was saying that the market underestimates the significance of the MegaChips deal is because of Nintendo yes but also we are hopefully going into the new wifi Halo with MegaChips which will be unbelievably huge in my opinion 👍

I received an email yesterday from an Infrastructure industry association with a company being advertised: Spectur (SP3) a WA founded surveillance company that specialises in remote locations and feature edge capabilities. I downloaded their white paper titled: Sense, think, act: how smart technology is making communities safer.

My thinking is if they're not already in discussions with BRN then they soon will be (funnily enough their research arm is also based in Perth). Below are some exerts including discussing edge compute (I believe they're currently doing a combination of cloud, fog and edge, so perhaps the papers edge discussion is discussing their platforms versatility).

Introducing Spectur
Spectur is an innovative provider of cutting-edge technological solutions harnessing solar power and battery storage to solve security and safety problems in remote or off-grid locations. Spectur’s autonomous surveillance and warning systems use advanced artificial intelligence and IoT technology to sense, think and act in response to threats without requiring human interaction, even in remote areas and harsh environments. The uniquely flexible, programmable and expandable platforms enable Spectur to develop ideal solutions to help clients reduce risk to people, property and the environment.

Operating independently of mains power and wired internet, Spectur’s systems can be deployed in isolated areas far from other infrastructure, temporary settings, and locations where cabling is not feasible due to factors including the associated costs, disruption and environmental disturbance. In the past, no viable solution was available for use in many such settings. This meant private and public institutions had to accept significant risk and hope for the best. Now, using this advanced technology, these risks can be effectively mitigated, avoiding significant potential financial, reputational and human costs.

Spectur offers sales, rental, subscriptions and ongoing services built around its advanced solutions to comprehensively address a wide range of different challenges faced by private and public sector clients. These may include, but are not limited to, theft and infrastructure damage, illegal dumping, barriers to effective emergency response in off-grid areas, and public health and safety threats (including shark attacks, bushfires, storms, floods and other natural disasters, pollution, drowning and more). The systems can even perform as solar- AI platforms, suitable for the deployment of solutions by other third parties.

Cloud, edge and fog computing
.....
In edge computing, a significant proportion of the computing takes place on or near the endpoint IoT devices, which also store limited data. Devices with these capabilities are known as edge devices. Essentially, data from devices is processed more locally (at edge devices, networks of devices, local servers and/or gateways) rather than at the location of centralised storage. Processing data directly at the edge, rather than sending it to the cloud, reduces latency and allows for faster response, making it instrumental for real-time applications. It can also reduce the consumption of data transmitted over wireless networks, with associated costs, ten-fold or more.

Edge computing can also prevent sensitive raw data from being sent to the cloud, encrypting data closer to where it is generated and allowing for offline local storage. Edge computing can employ a loosely connected structure with devices (or nodes) independently collecting and processing data. Edge computing architecture also allows IoT devices to operate in areas with limited bandwidth or intermittent internet connectivity.


------
Additionally on their AI page they note:
There are no commercially available solutions for edge-based visual AI platforms that are not custom built. We designed our solution to be open to multiple AI technology providers. The Spectur ‘fog’ ecosystem is designed for cloud and edge-based AI. We deliver a robust solution, within carefully managed power consumption constraints.

Hi Everyone, I'm stepping out of my comfort zone here, or just can't find a GIF to explain it thoroughly. So here goes.
I really appreciate all the information that is put up for the rest of us to peruse. I guess it is lazy to just use other peoples hard work but some people have a lot of other things going on elsewhere as well, or they just aren't as good at researching.

That being said there are a few special posters that have from the very start contributed highly regarded information that I and lots of others very much appreciate and potentially would be lost without during tougher times. While I do my own research, as should everyone, sometimes the commentary around others research, is worth far more by the way it's relayed, something which I'm sure a lot of people take for granted but I would just like to offer my sincere thanks for all information.

As far as opposing views leading to elevated tensions, I think we should all take a step back from the sandpit and think, "does it really matter if we disagree, at least I know my opinion has been considered", or you could think, "f*&K off idiot, I'm right and you're wrong"! You have the power to decide and then keep scrolling if you wish. At no point do I wish these posts weren't there as without a contrarian viewpoint, we just end up becoming sheep that just follow the crowd, while investing in a company that is doing completely the opposite. This contrarian view makes me question and then research further to decide for myself. And people can call me what they want as I'm big enough and ugly enough to take it!

Now for the Gifs, yeah I know some hit and some miss and may overstep the true nature of this forum but the great Ricky Gervais once said if you think of something funny or a good joke, risk it and say it, as you may just make 1 persons day and that potential result is lost forever if you refrain. The risk of offending someone else, is that persons issue to bear, as being "offended" is a choice every person has to choose to be.

I fully believe in the company and hope we see huge amounts of wealth created all round as we are all here for this reason. Anyone having invested long ago will understand its just how our SP goes from time to time but one day I believe it will shoot up much higher and not turn back and then everyone will then be everyone else's mate again, except the shorters, they can burn on our rocket jets.

Rant over, stay positive everyone or negative that's your choice but realise "The burgers are better at Hungry Jacks"!

Will you look at that, I did find a gif that explains it all!!

UP-RAMPING ALERT !!

Most of you know that I’m on the side of those criticising our battler’s communication skills. I can see no reason why we cannot receive regular meaty updates, without jeopardising confidentiality or NDA’s.

However, after a ‘bout of nitpicking, let’s “ax-sent-uate the positive…ee-lim-inate the negative…latch on to the affirmative…don’t mess with Mr In-between”.

In the latest podcast, Peter said that by around 2030 he and his bunch of merrymen will showcase Akida 10 - Beneficial AGI.

We know from his past Akida predictions, that he’s either uncannily lucky, or he really knows what he’s doing. Although I believe Peter will be a future Nobel Prize winner, for now he flies well under the LiDAR, and his comments simply passed through to the keeper without impacting the share price. Just imagine if somebody like a Billy Gates had told the world that Brainchip was on track to do this…it would put the Mercedes press releases into the shade.

In my view, there is no dispute that Akida 1.0 is at least three years ahead of anything else. Confirmation of this could not have come from any higher source than when Intel capitulated (not too strong a word) and invited our battler to join them. Akida 1.5 is being produced for volume applications, Akida 2.0 is not far behind…then A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, A9.

It is accepted A2.0 will take us out to five years ahead…how far in front will we be in just seven short years with Akida10.0?

There has been much comment about Tesla heading down the wrong road. If they continue the way they’re going, and Mercedes continue the way they’re going…where will these two automotive manufacturers be in 2025?

A similar analogy can be directed towards other organisations. For instance, if Samsung use Akida and Apple don’t…where will these two gigantic competitors be in 2025? What happens if Airbus do and Boeing don’t…if Sony do and Philips don’t…if The Pentagon does and China cannot?

However, Akida or whether you’re investigating it is no longer THE secret...it is no longer the issue at stake.

The big deal now is how you’re planning to use or apply it?

Eventually everyone will use Akida in some way or another...they will be compelled to do so or die. Those first to market will certainly gain an advantage, but it will be those who apply Akida’s ‘secret sauce’ in the most innovative, imaginative, ingenious, inventive way who will be the big winners over their competitors. Encore…

”If you can fill the unforgiving minute with sixty seconds of brilliance…yours is the earth and everything in it”….Rudyard Kipling

Hopefully people heal 🙏

I have nothing personal against anyone, including the ones talking behind my back.

Wish you all the best with your investments.

I'm still going to speak my mind, sorry not sorry.

You can take it or leave it.

If you're driving a car, you check for potential hazards. Make sure brake is okay, battery is okay etc... investments are the same, avoid it at your own risk.

Uprampers would make you blind, just like downrampers would make you lose.

Stay objective, keep your eyes peeled and good luck.

Yes this is the SBIR link noting that the next phase involves building the prototype of the handheld device:


Does Homeland Security go with the Nvidia $30,000 impractical solution running at 250 Watts and requiring generators strapped to each operatives back or the Brainchip $50.00 version running on a couple of AA batteries.

Don't worry, back in 2015 many of us saw an article in The West, about an incredible WA-based SoC advancement and realised it was going to be ubiquitous without having a PhD in the finer details of global neuromorphic essentialai witchcraftery.

These are two questions which I think are important:

1. If I was Sony for example and in 2019 and the Brainchip head of sales, a company from Australia I had never heard of turned up, and said I have this IP called AKIDA and it can do everything that a $30,000 Nvidia GPU can do running on a couple of AA batteries for $50.00 would I have just called security and had the nutter escorted from the building?

2. Has the independent verification by Edge Impulse that AKIDA1000 running at 300 megahertz can match the performance of a GPU running at 900 megahertz, the independent verification by Nviso that AKIDA1000 can run its algorithms at 1000fps compared to a Nvidia Jetson at 100fps, the statement by Mercedes Benz that AKIDA is five to ten times more efficient than competitor solutions and this research by Quantum Ventura set out in the above posts improved the chances that at 1. above I would now at least offer Brainchip's head of sales a cup of coffee and give him 10 minutes of my time?

Selling Science Fiction that will wipe away all the current technology has to be difficult and in my mind when you look at what success has been achieved despite the barriers that would have existed to being believed the fact that Renesas has actually taped out a chip and is bringing it to market later this year is really quite astonishing until you realise that at the time Brainchip approached Renesas it had its own neuromorphic program and was well progressed and so was in an intellectual space which allowed them to conceive of the possibility that AKIDA could possibly be real.

As @Realinfo stated "Eventually everyone will use Akida in some way or another...they will be compelled to do so or die."

To a certain extent given what now is being revealed by others like Quantum Ventura Inc it would have been completely illogical for Intel to have not told reception to let Brainchip come in.
