Suffice to say, I'M SO EXCITED!!!
I will be happy to see the money in the BrainChip account
Just make it happen……

On Saturday, they are creating a Commercial downloadable version of the whole Chat Brain of Open AI. They had to port some stuff to Apache. It is optimized for the M1 chip, but runs on everything. Any kid with a laptop can grab this entire stack. He explains it all and documents it.
In 10 minutes, mega people can download and run this thing. Next is text to video.
I thought this information was absolutely informative.

Good morning all,
This post on Linkedin will have been viewed by many, which is fine, but I'd just like to say this;
Kris Carlson has been with us, as Anil's righthand man in the US for over 5 year now, if you read the last part of
his comments it is just another way of appreciating the quality of staff working for the company and us in general.
Brainchip is a family, reflecting in this case, integrity, work ethics, and warm respect for other team members who are
all going to be personally rewarded, financially or spiritually, as we ALL move towards commercial success.

Hey all, I don't post on LinkedIn much, but I thought this deserved a post. We are introducing Akida 2.0! In this version, we extend support for object-detection and segmentation models, add support for vision transformers, and introduce temporal event-based neural networks (TENNs). It has been extremely fun to iterate over Akida 1.0 and I'm really happy with what we're coming out with. Everyone at BrainChip has been working extremely hard on this, so I just want to thank my co-workers for their hard work!
Regards.......Tech

Looks like they could use Akida:
US2022269910A1 METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETERMINING AUTO-EXPOSURE FOR HIGH-DYNAMIC RANGE OBJECT DETECTION USING NEURAL NETWORK
An auto-exposure control is proposed for high dynamic range images, along with a neural network for exposure selection that is trained jointly, end-to-end with an object detector and an image signal processing (ISP) pipeline. Corresponding method and system for high dynamic range object detection are also provided.
[0023] … a method for determining an auto-exposure value of a low dynamic range (LDR) sensor for use in high dynamic range (HDR) object detection, the method comprising:
employing at least one hardware processor for:
forming an auto-exposure neural network for predicting exposure values for the LDR sensor driven by a downstream object detection neural network in real time;
training the auto-exposure neural network jointly, end-to-end together with the object detection neural network and an image signal processing (ISP) pipeline, thereby yielding a trained auto-exposure neural network; and
using the trained auto-exposure neural network to generate an optimal exposure value for the LDR sensor and the downstream object detection neural network for the HDR object detection.

Robots that learn from human videos and simulated interactions
Training robots in the wild is slow, expensive, and dangerous. FAIR has developed an artificial visual cortex (VC-1) from egocentric videos and visuomotor skills from simulated environments that can form the foundation for embodied intelligence. VC-1 achieves impressive results on 17 different...

’When I joined the company, the whole thing felt like a science project’
Lou suggested this during a lunch we had back in early 2019 at Foys Kirribilli. Sitting above the Sydney Flying Squadron’s club house, Lou was captivated by the crews preparing for an afternoon’s racing. Around eight months earlier at the 2018 AGM, we were a long way from agreeing to have lunch together. But somewhat like my tractor challenge to Fact, a little humour and not always needing to have the last word about something, generally diffuses whatever it is one disagrees on.
We are told by people who presumably know, that it takes around three years from go to whoa when it comes to incorporating new technology into products. Lou told us about the importance of getting into the product development cycle at the right time.
There has been much discussion about Valeo this week. I would simply like to add, our battler signed a joint development agreement with them back in June 2020, just a smidge under three years ago. We continue to work with them so one would think that we must be getting close to an earner.
The Ford agreement was signed a month earlier. Some here have written this off, but correct me if I’m wrong…it was a price sensitive ASX announcement so if the agreement’s done ‘n dusted, should there not have been an ASX announcement saying as much?
There was a similar price sensitive ASX announcement in August 2020 about a partnership agreement with Magik Eye.
We discovered via a similar ASX announcement that Vorago had signed an EAP agreement in September 2020, and NASA in December 2020…both presumably still going strong.
Then the IP license agreement with Renasas in December 2020…voila, two years later they’re into tape-out.
These deals, all announced via the ASX were done more than two years ago...three years will tick over during the next few months.
In November 2021, we had the Megachips license agreement announced via the ASX. There is a great deal of expectation about what this will bring, especially after Peter suggested that people are yet to understand how important this agreement is.
Since the close of 2021 there has been a plethora of partnership agreements and arrangements, if not identical, then very similar to the above, announced in all ways except via the ASX. I’m not suggesting this devalues them in anyway, it‘s simply an observation.
I come back to wiser heads than mine and the three year rule.
In June 2019 (almost FOUR years ago) our battler signed an agreement with Socionext. Almost four years ago, Vice President Noriaki Kubo said ‘we are excited to join Brainchip in the design, development and introduction of Akida SoC...bringing AI to edge applications is a major industry development, and also a strategic application segment for Socionext’ Ten months later in April 2020 (three years ago) Mr Kubo added the words COMMERCIAL PARTNERS to how Socionext saw their relationship with our battler. Mr Kubo remains VP of Socionext to this day.
Me myself personally thinks Socionext is the sleeper in the pack !!!

Distilling the technology strategy, Amon called out wireless connectivity, high-performance/low-power computing and artificial intelligence (AI) as applicable “to every industry. We can scale for a phone, all the way to an autonomous car, and to a number of different industrial applications.” Qualcomm counts more than 16,000 industrial IoT customers, he said.
As companies are looking to make commitments to reduce energy consumption, technologies provided by Qualcomm (as opposed to created?
) that provide high performance, efficient computing, becomes essential. And we’re very excited about the opportunity of growing in all of those markets with Qualcomm innovation.”

They received a Gold Star from the teacher in 2021 for their Ai approach and yet there is only old school von Neumann in this job add. Just seems strange and of course they even nominated the $30,000 alternative as the area of expertise.
