For anyone interested in getting an idea about chip design costs for the different sizes, and what is involved for larger chip design companies as compared to smaller startups:

Firm Estimates a 2nm Chip Now Costs $725 Million to Design
At least, for a large chip.

Am I the only one confused by the 2025 date mentioned then further down it states 2024.
Although got clarification earlier today that 2024 is launch but I did not bring this up with them.
Or I'm simply missing something

The Mercedes-Benz Concept CLA Class will make its debut at the event to give us an early look at a new family of models.
We'll need to wait until the show opens its doors to the press on Monday (Sept. 4), to see the Concept CLA Class from every angle, but a dark preview image released by the brand confirms the model looks nothing like the CLA that's currently in showrooms. It wears a futuristic-looking front end characterized by an oval grille, a light bar, and semi-circle-shaped LED accents with Mercedes-Benz star-like inserts.
Mercedes-Benz boss Ola Källenius confirmed the Concept CLA Class rides on a new architecture called MMA; the production-bound cars inspired by the design study will use this platform as well. Powertrain specifications haven't been released, but the company notes power comes from an "ultra-efficient" electric powertrain related to the system that powers the Vision EQXX concept unveiled in January 2022.
That's significant, because the Vision EQXX covered the 747 miles separating Stuttgart, Germany, and Silverstone, England, on one charge. It's a concept, bringing it to production as-is isn't feasible, but the lessons learned during the project will permeate MMA-based cars. "You need to improve every single area. Everything that has a weight needs to become lighter, everything that transfers energy needs to become more efficient, and everything that’s on the outside needs to be as aerodynamic as possible," Mercedes-Benz told me after I drove the car.
Interior photos haven't been released, but the Concept CLA Class will inaugurate a new operating system called MB.OS. We're curious to find out if the Vision EQXX, which featured a dashboard-wide screen and an elegantly minimalist interior, will also influence the cabin layout.
Stay tuned: More details about the Mercedes-Benz Concept CLA Class will emerge in the coming days. As for what's next, an unverified report from October 2022 claims the first EQXX-inspired, MMA-based car will land in showrooms in 2024 as a CLA-sized electric model.
.....
...
So
1. Akida technology is included in the EQXX concept car.
2. The Concept CLA class being unveiled next week is the first car to be launched using EQXX technology, including new operating system MB.OS
3. One can conclude that Akida technology will be in the concept CLA class.
4. First sales in 2024.
Well, next week could be very interesting indeed.
Out of the ASX200, but confirmed in the CLA class being launched in 2024
What, on earth, will the shorters do !!

Another snippet from the link you provided that does this really just mean they are pioneering (juicing up existing tech) with their brand of edge AI via cloud as required therefore not linked to BRN tech (digital EDGE AI) for now.
“The MGX with GH200-based generative AI and 5G data center platform is designed to improve the performance, scalability, and automated resource utilization of AI, 5G, and other telco-specific workloads from the edge to the cloud. This innovative solution will greatly benefit telcos who can leverage their space, power, and network connectivity to become AI factories of the future,” says Ronnie Vasishta, senior vice president for telecoms at NVIDIA
———————————————————-
Other snippets I found elsewhere not in the linke provided
NVIDIA MGX server specification, a modular reference architecture for system manufacturers enabling them to quickly and cost-effectively build over 100 server variations to fit a broad range of AI, high-performance computing, and Omniverse applications
MGX differs from NVIDIA HGX™ in that it offers flexible, multi-generational compatibility with NVIDIA products to ensure that system builders can reuse existing designs and easily adopt next-generation products without expensive redesigns
———————————————————
I always hope BRN are somehow linked to nvidia
but are they running their own race for now?

Dear Nvidia.
Please remember your are great and all and we’d love your share price and revenue. But remember you’re not on a bus yet. We offer IP for you to come along to the moon (or I know I know you take us with you, semantics really).
Anyways. Invite us to the party and we all jump in the hot tub.
Sounds like a great idea to me.
Sincerely
I. P. A. Kida
It isn’t a loss for ASX 200 ETF based fund managers. These funds are in effect owned by the unit holders. The ETF manager buys shares of companies in the ASX 200 on behalf of the unit holders and the price changes of these shares ( in aggregate) impacts the asset value of the fund. The fund manager has no (or very little) exposure to the value of the stocks in the ASX 200 fund. It makes its money from the charges on the unit holders, which can come in a variety of forms.
In relation to these type of funds the managers don’t care whether the prices of the stocks go up or down ( other than when they go down their asset management charge is levied on a smaller number). They do care more about growing the number of units on issue.

Great post @Quiltman
Better words than the one I did last night.
Essentially this new concept is very "Efficience" follow the EQXX Concept.
Build on the new operating System MS.OS similar to the EQXX platform.

Tuesday, if it drops me below 20% again... Transferred more money in super direct account. Or maybe I am no longer able to buy it since we are no longer ASX200. Hmmm wonder if I get a letter saying "you can't hold anything not in ASX200 bla bla..." Best stay put and quiet until we departed for the moon.

If ARM was an arm, BRN would be its biceps💪!
SoftBank lines up Apple, Nvidia as strategic Arm IPO backers
A show of support from some of the tech industry’s biggest names will help bolster Arm's IPO, which is expected to raise $5 billion to $7 billion. |

SoftBank Group has lined up some of Arm's biggest customers as strategic investors for the chip company’s initial public offering, including Apple, Nvidia, Intel and Samsung, according to people familiar with the situation. The investors also include Advanced Micro Devices, Cadence Design Systems, Alphabet Inc.’s Google, Synopsys, among others, said the people, who asked not to identified because the details haven’t been announced.
SoftBank has been in discussions with Arm customers and partners for months, but the plans are just being finalized now. Still, the specifics could change as the company gets closer to the IPO, which is expected to have its investor roadshow underway by next week.
The investors will put in amounts ranging from $25 million to $100 million, according to the people.
The show of support from some of the tech industry’s biggest names will help bolster the offering, which is expected to raise $5 billion to $7 billion. SoftBank, which acquired Arm in 2016, was previously aiming to value the chip business at $60 billion to $70 billion, but the figure could be more in the range of $50 billion to $60 billion, Bloomberg has reported.
Representatives from AMD, Arm, Google, Nvidia and Synopsys declined to comment. Apple, Cadence, Intel and Samsung didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment.
SoftBank is capitalizing on investor interest in the chip industry, which has benefited from spending on artificial intelligence equipment. The Philadelphia Stock Exchange Semiconductor Index has rallied this year, far outpacing the S&P 500 Index and other major indexes.
Arm provides chip designs and licenses technology that’s a crucial part of the more than 1 billion smartphones sold every year. In recent years, it has tried to spread its reach into new areas, including computers used in data centers, seeking to be part of higher-priced electronic components.
Arm is considering pricing its shares on Sept. 13, and the stock will start trading the next day, Bloomberg reported earlier this week. The roadshow to promote the offering is expected to come after the U.S. Labor Day holiday on Monday.
Initially, Arm was looking to raise $8 billion to $10 billion, but the target was lowered after owner SoftBank decided to hold on to more of the company — a move that involved buying Vision Fund’s stake in the chip designer. That transaction valued the chip company at more than $64 billion.
A successful debut by Arm would be a boon for SoftBank Chief Executive Officer Masayoshi Son, whose Vision Fund lost a record $30 billion last year. It could also spur dozens of companies to pursue their own IPO plans. Online grocery-delivery firm Instacart, marketing and data automation provider Klaviyo and footwear maker Birkenstock are all working on their own offerings.
Son doesn’t want to part with more than 10% of the company at this point, Bloomberg has reported.
Arm, based in Cambridge, England, has assembled a lengthy roster of underwriters for the IPO, reflecting both the company’s global reach and banks’ eagerness to land roles on big-ticket deals in a slow listings market. Barclays PLC, Goldman Sachs Group, JPMorgan Chase & Co. and Mizuho Financial Group are leading the offering.
