Just a little refresher.

"Advanced AI Solutions for Automotive
Socionext has partnered with artificial intelligence provider BrainChip to develop optimized, intelligent sensor data solutions based on Brainchip's Akida® processor IP.

BrainChip's flexible AI processing fabric IP delivers neuromorphic, event-based computation, enabling ultimate performance while minimizing silicon footprint and power consumption. Sensor data can be analyzed in real-time with distributed, high-performance and low-power edge inferencing, resulting in improved response time and reduced energy consumption."

So what is peoples take on how socio does not already have an IP licence. They literally have designed products that rely on Akida.

I ask because if they have somehow avoided the need what sort of deal has been struck.

Why would they not sign it now rather than later as they are not hiding the relationship or product.

Because if they can get away with not having one is this the same situation that will apply to prophesee?

Has this chip been discussed before. I just saw something that sparked my interest. Hailo has just released a new product family for vision sensors at the edge. Their product family has 3 options. Low, medium and high. This sounds very similar to brainchip akida 2.0 and their three versions.

Can maybe @Diogenese have a sneak peak at their patents for these chips and sniff out some Akida IP pretty please?

To further my interest Anil Mankar liked their post.

If Hailo for example got their chip built trough Megachips, could they do so without signing IP with brainchip?

Only very basic speculations.https://www.linkedin.com/posts/lira...0-G3rL?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios

Good morning/afternoon/evening, wherever you are viewing this platform.

Is this current window of opportunity rapidly coming to an end, well, I believe so, 45c is a complete fabrication of the truth, things are about
to explode on a worldwide scale (my educated opinion).

This is the biggest change of direction that our company embarked on within months of Sean taking over the reigns, he
is passionate, competitive, well researched, is etching out a direct path to success for the benefit of all.

Many would have seen a number of years ago the slide of a potential roadmap unveiling the future direction of AKIDA,
that is, AKD 1 through to AKD 10, being (AGI).

Last week I spoke with Peter briefly to ask him to please explain or more to the point, clarify what he actually meant when
referring to AGI, as many would already know, the Singularity suggests a future world where humans lose their sense of
reality and technology gets out of control, Peter was very clear in expressing his views on this matter, with the emphasis on
Beneficial AI .

"We don't expect to achieve AGI by 2030"

There may be more than 7 chips taped out, there maybe IP's developed for specific customers, I really get the sense that we are
being extremely flexible and accommodating, yes we are a young start-up, and it's natural to want to please all potential clients,
so this business attitude will be respected to the point that we are going to end up in a much stronger, commanding position
in the overall market.

After receiving Peter's reply I had to readdress my own understanding, without realizing it as such, I was still locked into Lou's
earlier roadmap, which has changed for the better in my personal opinion.

Another area where my own understanding was wrong, was in the fact that, despite us changing direction rather sharply 3 months prior
to the last AGM, we are still potentially going to be supplying NSoC for specific customers for specific end user cases (products).

Finally, may I say that @Steve10 you have become a very strong contributor on this forum, you present excellent material and are
nicely balanced in your views, your figures give many food for thought, so from me personally, I say thank you.

From a rather hot day in Perth, I say cheers everyone. Tech

Hey Tech, I might be missing something and it's really no big deal to me..

But are you saying, Peter said..

"We don't expect to achieve AGI by 2030"?

I thought in the podcast before last, he said he expected to reach A.G.I. With AKIDA 10, by 2030?

I know it's something Uiux is hanging out for..
But again, I don't think we need it..

And it's just a goal, maybe he thought he had overreached, in his expectations?..

Asking if someone wants to come over and help count your Krugerrands, is a more advanced strategy

My take on it is that Sean knows what he is doing.

Define need? And define AGI?

In regards to competiotion with other companies, somebody are going to develop something that we can discuss if is AGI and Brainchip better be ahead of it. I think that we would love Brainchip to convince the world that they have the first AGI, because then we will see something unprecedented with the Brainchip stock price.

We're probably going to discuss if it's really AGI forever, with the flat earthers claming AGI is flat and politicians denying it's more intelligent than them.

Do we need it as humans? No, not as of now, but it's debateable if it's nice to have and we may become addicted to it.

Someone else will develop A.G.I. before us..

But it would be an energy sapping monster, with servers etc and dependant on constant "connection".

When BrainChip talks of AGI, they are talking about true independant AGI, with no connections, running at extremely low wattage.

As to my definition, it's the full monty, the "capability" for human like learning, reasoning and perception etc..

But BrainChip, certainly doesn't need that, to be hugely successful, as we will see in time..

That's just a justifiable measure of my confidence, in the future of our Company.

 

[FrederikSchack]

I'm going to share something with you, that I find immensely valuable and it's something else than Brainchip, which is of course also immensely valuable. I have two primary tools that I use when I do stock research, Inoreader and Gurufocus.

Here I'm going to focus on what I think could strengthen the already very strong 1000 eyes here on this forum and not least help you in other kinds of research.

Inoreader is at first glance just a news-aggregator, with a relatively simple interface. It comes as a web interface and an app, that have almost the same functionality. I use both with different purposes.

Inoreader let you subscribe to virtually anything, given it's publicly available on the Internet... and sometimes it accidentially let's me read what's behind the paywalls, without me being aware of it at all (when I'm clicking the "coffee cup" icon)! So, I'm very sorry if I ever accidentially posted something in this forum, from behind a paywall.

You can subscribe to RSS, YouTubers, Twitter channels, Telegram channels, Facebook pages, Reddit feeds and virutually any webpages.

In the web interface click "Add new" -> "Feed" and search amongst millions of feeds or past a webpage link and make it a feed with their AI.

If you have the paid version, click their deceptivly anonymously "Search" box and search for something random, let's say "Brainchip". Now, don't stop there, click the small arrow down besides "All Articles" and click "All Public Articles" and then "All sites". Now you just searched all feeds that Inoreader knows of for "Brainchip".

And you found a new article about Brainchip:

BrainChip Illustrates AIoT Readiness at the Edge Impulse ML Series

BrainChip Holdings first commercial producer of ultra-low power, fully digital, event-based, neuromorphic AI IP, joins Edge Impulse ML Series

aithority.com

Now, don't stop there, click "+Monitor Keyword" and you just created a small channel only regarding Brainchip. You can even make it filter out duplicates and set up rules for notification e.t.c.

Is it in Chinese? Click the translate icon.

In the app, click the read out loud icon and have it read in an almost perfect synthetic voice.

This was just a small primer, there's more to Inoreader than that, hope you find it useful.

Still, what is AGI?

I suppose that a human is GI, but what about a dolphin? A Pig? A Dog? A Cat? At what level does General Intelligence stop?

Where does AGI start?

Could Akida-P maybe compete with a cat in regards to intelligence, although it's a significantly different kind of intelligence?

I understand that wet-ware neural networks operate at very low frequencies, something like 50-70 hz. But have much more neurons. Supposedly a cat has a bit more than 500 million neurons. The previous Akida 1.0 could be connected to have up around 70 million neurons, but operating at hundreds of millions of hz. How about Akida 2.0 P? Performing 50 TFLOPS (the Akida 2.0 kind)?

I think the debate about if AGI is here starts now and will last until long after AGI has surpassed GI.

Just out of interest, has anyone here ever raced against GT Sophy. I haven’t as I’m not into gaming and so on , but I believe it’s free to try till the end of March.

AiThority Interview with Pete Wurman, Director at Sony AI

AiThority Interview with Pete Wurman, Director at Sony AI is a Q&A centric chat on difference between previous in-game AI and GT Sophy.

aithority.com

While GT Sophy shares much with these previous milestones, especially the use of neural networks and reinforcement learning, it differs from them in important ways.

First, Gran Turismo is a physically realistic simulation of motorsports. Racing is a very unforgiving sport; to be competitive a driver must be pushing the car to its absolute traction limits and one small mistake leads to disaster. So it must learn not only how to drive fast, but how to master tactical driving skills like slipstream passing — all while making the decisions in real time.

At the same time, because competitors can physically interact with each other, there is an element of sportsmanship that is not present in other video gamesthat is very hard to teach to the agent. The agent had to learn how to play in the same physical space as the humans without being able to practice against actual humans (there are too few humans at these elite levels). Unlike other games, playing against yourself does not fully prepare you to play against humans; slight errors/differences by the human can lead to penalties for the agent if it isn’t prepared.

So what’s the consensus on if Mercedes Benz are going to have vehicles containing akida in 2024? I’ve read a few reports now that it “may” contain the tech that was used in the EQXX (akida)

Mercedes-Benz EV to ditch EQ branding and take a shot at the Model 3

Electrification is now advancing at a breakneck pace, and it is becoming increasingly apparent that who remain indecisive between jumping onto the e-mobility technology or to keep producing fossil fuelled vehicles and risk being left behind.

www.britanniacarleasing.co.uk

“Mercedes-Benz have also been eager to reveal that this new electric saloon will be the pioneer of the company’s proprietary MB Operating System, which will be used instead of the Google connectivity options integrated into the vehicles of competitors such as Volvo. This homemade infotainment system may even feature the experimental processor being developed by Mercedes that executes tasks in “neuromorphic spikes”, which essentially translates to the processor steadily accumulating tasks until a certain quantity has been reached, when they are all carried out simultaneously”

I decided that I would hold my breath when the neuromorphic presentation that won the competition is released.

Until then 2024 seems to be the best guess.

My speculation that the presentation would be released in March is fast running out of days.

...that`s a nice one. Well maybe I don`t get it right but someone could understand that as a direct IP licence coming up if these developments by mercedes would be a success and if Akida IP is involved, right? So too many "if" statements at the moment.
