I think this is a more in depth article on it. Maybe you get some more insight from reading it ? Goes above my head that’s for sure.
Also when googling on it I came across this in the search field, but cant find it when I click on it.

I used Chat GPT to draw any connections, similarities and overlaps between Akida specs and the N1 / E1 article. This is what it came back with.
There are a few connections, similarities, and overlaps between these two articles:
1. Both articles discuss advancements in processor architectures and designs that are optimized for specific computing tasks. The first article focuses on BrainChip's Akida fabric, which is designed for AI processing, while the second article discusses Arm's Neoverse N1 and E1 platforms, targeting general-purpose cloud computing and edge computing.
2. Both articles highlight the benefits of reducing power consumption and increasing efficiency. The first article mentions that BrainChip's fabric reduces power consumption while increasing throughput, and it incorporates clock gating and dynamic voltage and frequency scaling. Similarly, the second article mentions that Arm's N1 platform delivers a 30% power efficiency improvement over previous generations.
3. Both articles emphasize the scalability of the respective platforms. The first article mentions that the Akida fabric is scalable from 2 nodes for ultra-low power to 256 nodes for complex use cases. Likewise, the second article states that Arm's N1 platform can scale up to 128 cores and the E1 platform delivers scalable throughput from the edge to the core datacenter.
4. Both articles discuss the integration and deployment aspects of the platforms. The first article mentions the robust software and development environment for the Akida fabric, while the second article mentions the availability of the N1 and E1 designs to partners and the expectation for the first silicon to come to market by the end of the year.
Overall, both articles share a focus on advanced processor architectures, power efficiency, scalability, and integration aspects, although they are from different companies and target slightly different computing domains.

Interesting read here about the water consumption required to run the data centres used for ChatGPT:
fortune.com
"In its latest environmental report, Microsoft disclosed that its global water consumption spiked 34% from 2021 to 2022 (to nearly 1.7 billion gallons, or more than 2,500 Olympic-sized swimming pools), a sharp increase compared to previous years that outside researchers tie to its AI research."
"In a paper due to be published later this year, Ren’s team estimates ChatGPT gulps up 500 milliliters of water (close to what’s in a 16-ounce water bottle) every time you ask it a series of between 5 to 50 prompts or questions. The range varies depending on where its servers are located and the season. The estimate includes indirect water usage that the companies don’t measure — such as to cool power plants that supply the data centers with electricity."
"In July 2022, the month before OpenAI says it completed its training of GPT-4, Microsoft pumped in about 11.5 million gallons of water to its cluster of Iowa data centers, according to the West Des Moines Water Works. That amounted to about 6% of all the water used in the district, which also supplies drinking water to the city’s residents."
A.I. tools fueled a 34% spike in Microsoft’s water consumption, and one city with its data centers is concerned about the effect on residential supply
“They were pretty secretive on what they’re doing out there,” says a former mayor about Microsoft’s data center projects.

Good morning back in Australia,
Interesting reading comments on the departure of Chris Stevens, it's all speculative.
No one company revolves around one individual, everyone is replaceable, no matter what we may think about ourselves, choices are made
every single second of a day worldwide, we all move on.
Some may attempt to use his departure as a knife to inflict more shareholder pain, but in reality, we are on schedule, have a very stable workforce
whom all have the same drive and determination to see Brainchip succeed.
Nothing to see here, except an opportunity for some new individual (male or female) to take us forward.
Regards Tech

Many years ago, at a company where I once worked, I was involved in a conversation with the CEO about tenure. He believed that engineers should spend no more than three years at a company lest they become stale in their skill set, and it was in their best interest to move on.Good morning back in Australia,

I will give him the benefit of the doubt that there were no other ulterior motives, like giving developers extra vacation time after several years of service or hiring new talent out of school at a cheaper rate after senior employees leave; however, I like to think that any engineer who enjoys what they do will be following new technologies and changes in their field nonetheless.
It's possible this individual is of that school of thought and maybe feels they need to rejuvenate their sales skills at new companies. There are two key takeaways for me here: 1) I would be more concerned if they lost a key developer who had in-depth engineering knowledge of the IP they are developing, and 2) provided this individual is leaving the company on good terms, they have an opportunity to share their knowledge of BrainChip with their new company, should its application be relevant.
Given that BrainChip has already had customer feedback that has driven the development of Akida 2.0, I would think that any potential IP sales agreements would be made notwithstanding this individual's decision to move on in their career.

Oh no, I missed some weekend TSEx drama!
In other news I would have expected the revenue-growth-desperados to be quite pleased about our local revenue growth expert departure.
Also as VP of sales I would have thought a replacement would have been nothing but positive or at least neutral news.
Instead of ranting, I have funnelled my energy in to making shit memes.

Qualcomm's 'Holy Grail': Generative AI Is Coming to Phones Soon
The company wants its next-gen Snapdragon chips to use AI for more than just improving camera shots.
Summit attendees will get to experience firsthand what generative AI will bring to phones, but Qualcomm senior vice president of product management Ziad Asghar described to CNET why users should get excited for on-device AI. For one, having access to a user's data -- driving patterns, restaurant searches, photos and more -- all in one place will make solutions generated by AI in your phone much more customized and helpful than general responses from cloud-based generative AI.
"I think that's going to be the holy grail," Asghar said. "That's the true promise that makes us really excited about where this technology can go."

Sounds to me like CS has been made redundant - a re-evaluation of the sales function perhaps? I wouldn't be surprised if the sales function will now report directly to Sean.........after all that was his claim to fame coming in....... FWIWLike to know who the named accounts are

Maybe follow the comment trail and you will see this was in response to a personal opinion that a female should be hired.
To be more accurate the exact inciting comment was "Personally I'd like to see some female energy in the position."

Maybe stay out of it? I wasn't responding to that comment.

If you want others to "stay out of it".... then don't have a spat on a public forum about nonsense.
Especially since none of this is relevant to BRN.
