BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Foxdog]

You seem so confident in failure and have plenty of incorrect statements. Mercedes not a tier 1? I could go on but you just need to sell out

And you need to read all current posts before reacting - with respect, this has been addressed. Cheers mate

As the quiet guy in the corner who checks in here every few days to see what everyone is saying, I'm actually quite surprised by a lot of the "we want it all and we want it now" about the company, the revenue, the share price, etc. I've been slowly building my holding for 3 years and 3 days up until now. Of course I knew I should sell last Jan when the shares went whako schmako to over 2 bucks, but I also knew in my guts that I'm in for the long hall. I knew at that time that it could have been revealed that, for example, Samsung were incorporating Akida into all their fridges or whatever, or that the share price would come crashing down from NASA to Earth back to a penny stock. I'm surprised at how patient I've become in my half a century in this life. Two bucks was cool but I reckon there may be a lot more than that to come, and I'm prepared to wait. I have 5% of my total net worth invested in this stock. If it works out, things could get a bit easier for me. If not, it ain't gonna end me, I've calculated my risk vs reward. I also like to think back to olden days. Like how NVIDIA were at $6 after their IPO, then crashed back to 60c. How much are they now again, a trillion bucks or something? And things are happening a lot faster in this world of ours now guys. BRN might just turn out to be a 3000% in a day stock, and that's why I'm all in in. All or nothing maybe Thanks to all you guys' positive and negative input here about our little unicorn. It keeps my scales balanced, and I've taken my position. Cheers!

Foxy....Some may be surprised but I agree with some of your comments, but "a concept that's not commercially viable" is a bit harsh,
what's pissing you off like a lot of shareholders is the pace at which this whole SNN concept is unfolding, and I totally get it, yesterday I had
to sell 9,970 shares @ 0.275 to pay a couple of small bills, my heart was bleeding, I am like many shareholders, I never thought that we
would see our share price so low, but the value of Peters et al Patents WILL PROVE TO BE THE BACKBONE OF THIS COMPANY, has the
company already been approached, my opinion is, yes they have, but we aren't for sale.

I have been working overtime on the Patents Worldwide, I see Korea has published the "Improved Spiking Neural Network" with 2 others,
they haven't been examined yet, with the next update in May 2024...in the latest podcast with Sean he mentioned that Brainchip was receiving
great interest from the Hearing Aids sector, so I immediately started looking through Patents linked to Cochlear.

May I ask that all posters start pumping through the Patent Offices Worldwide searching for any sectors that you believe we may be involved
in, as Patents linked to major tier 1 companies who may be incorporating our IP will be securing their invention for sure, 100%.

Checking Patents isn't a one-off job, keep doing it monthly, you will be surprised what you pick up.

Have a nice evening back in Australia....Tech

As I was about to post some Patents to ask our residents Patents officer @Diogenese

Morning all, could it be that we are in the new apple phones and this is the start of the explosion of sales and to watch the financials? or is my dream of a lemons not apples?

This would not be very far fetched to assume. Can the 1000 eyes look into a company called headspace.

Have included a few links, that really piqued my interest.
I got onto this, because a school friend (not close with now) of mine who went to Carnegie Mellon to study bio medical engineering is currently working in the ai/machine learning space with headspace. So I went down the headspace rabbit hole.

Like how they mention they have iOS apps and rely on sensors which claim need “real time

Anker Innovations to showcase latest advancements at Gitex Global 2022

Among its latest flagship products, Anker will exhibit eufy Security’s new Edge Security System at Gitex this year

www.zawya.com

It’s a camera I’ve been using for sometime on my worksites, always wondered what AI they use. The cameras work on low power, and use the hub to communicate and store data.

Arm A55 cpu equipped and does face detection with self learning capabilities and 99% accuracy. Data is stored locally, and safely(encrypted) to protect privacy.

Timelines of bionicmind TM release lines up well. Cannot find much else about it.

Worth looking into a bit further imo.

I hadn't seen that one before, but I like when he talks about energy consumption of a potential 7nm implementation @9:47.
I assume 7nm implementation has nothing to with MCUs but more with (mobile) high-performance chips.

iPhone 15 USES akida and so does the new Apple Watch, and AirPods Pro.

Apple revenue is what Sean has been referring to cryptically.

Mark my words.

Will go out on a limb to say iPhone 16 will have akida 2.0 P in it.

Monday 18/09/23 is the date we’ve been waiting for!!! I feel it.

Time to shift gears and SEND ITTTTTT !!!
Go Brainchip!!!!

Patents are worthless if they're defending a concept that's not commercially viable. If BRN doesn't start making serious revenue soon then it won't have the resources to defend patent infringements anyway. This is simply a red herring designed to distract would-be investors from what is actually going on.
'The cornerstone of BRN value' what a bloody joke. The actual cornerstone of BRN value is IP licences, royalties and big tier 1 companies shouting from the rooftops about how amazing akida is. None of which appear to be happening.

My god, you continue to lay your naivety out for all to see, and I thank you for it. Please continue.

I genuinely feel sorry for anyone that that provided an emoji response to your post. Only those that did will be privy to you, but i'd be lol'ing at them if I were you.

You are completely wrong imo, BrainChips patents are everything, so important to our future worth and not only from the point of defending but as an attraction in takeover. It seems to me that you don’t really get how unique BrainChips technology is and how important it could likely become. Let’s for a moment think of the time when inevitably the limits and sustainability of current AI solutions is exhausted. It will happened, it can’t go on the present path that Nvidia are squeezing out atm. The time will come when BRNs tech is suddenly the tech of choice (they are setting themselves up for it) and then we will get very big very quickly or, someone will want control of our patents so badly they will be willing to pay an incredible premium for them.

i have the current version. It requires internet connectivity, power inefficient, doesn’t have specific facial recognition & requires fairly regular recharging, 1-2 x monthly.

If the Internet cuts out it has to be reset and takes ages fluffing around re-setting it it.

I’ve been banging on to my wife about how good it would be if it had Akida inside, so in my view the newest versions would be screaming out for the efficiency benefits of Akida.

Whilst on that topic, the Dee-bot vacuums are in the same boat- rely on internet connection, constant resetting. Another strong use case for Akida..
