I'm Spartacus!
Hi Folks. My Saturday morning musings......
It feels that what BrainChip has, in the current various iterations of Akida and the pipeline of what is to come in next generations, is now beginning to spill out from behind the NDA's, just due to the volume of critically relevant people who have been exposed to the possibilities of our tech.
That and the way AI is becoming ubiquitous within the mainstream lives of much of humanity, who are now connected to some degree by the link devices to supercomputers we all carry around and have become obsessed with.
I do not think of myself as a heavy user, yet my iPhone is constantly with me and within reach, when I go on my walks, to the dunny, whilst I sleep at night. It is now an ever present companion and can be a source of mild consternation ranging to perhaps outright anxiety whenever I become disconnected due to venturing to an area without sufficient coverage. I am becoming more and more reliant upon it with the skills of map reading, calligraphy and human interaction atrophying alongside the cultivation, preparation and preservation of the food I eat.
I assume the next stage will have "it" seeming to become more of a concierge or perhaps even "friend" relationship through the adoption of a far more personalised and integrated user interface along the lines of Siri or Alexa but with a much more "fleshed" out and curated "personality" who will come to replace all but the most outrageous of our fellow contemporaries.
Hard to know if this becomes utopia or dystopia over time, although either path seems to point to something of an amalgam between whatever of humanity which is not not able to be synthesised, along with, a rapidly evolving self directing technical intelligence.
What's all this got to do with BrainChip?
I think we are an enabling technology in this still nascent field of Neuromorphic computing allowing the integration of more and more of our physical world within the purview of a perhaps one day centralised and governing intelligence.
There are currently meetings and discussions occurring around the world about the potential dangers of the unrestricted development of AI but I am of the opinion that it's probably already too late. The momentum and the risk of not having our own version of this tech with which to counter a rival's has become too great to stop. Perhaps something akin to the race to develop the Atomic bomb during WW2.
I'm glad to be invested in BrainChip as a pioneer in our field for at least I have some confidence in the ethics and motivation of PVDM along with the BOD and Management that he has collected to manifest this in our world.
It's coming whether we are ready or not, whether we like it or not, but much prefer it championed and enabled by liberal democracy's rather than only by totalitarian regimes.
For those interested in a vision of the current state of play I recommend.....

'What's your p(doom)?' Why AI experts are calculating our doomsday odds - ABC listen
A growing number of AI industry insiders are guessing at the probability that Artificial Intelligence will lead to a catastrophic scenario for humanity, and calculating their ‘p(doom)’.
, that's would be sensational.
