Great post WH... good to see you again.... You are correct he does have a way with words very descriptive ...

Love these bits ......

"Akida 2.0 isn’t merely a product; it's poetry - a symphony of synapses"

" The Akida 2.0 system.... It is not just a beacon of brilliance; it's a veritable black hole"

With our s/p where it is, ........................... Don"t use the wording .................. "Veritable Black Hole "

Sometimes it's good to refresh the mind by rereading articles like this one attached.

Thanks Tech,
Nice to know we are a integral part of a important project. Casually mentioned along with the big end of town.

Fun reading about Brainchip in Epic story telling format. Made me chuckle.

These findings are not directly related to BRN, and I'm not suggesting any direct relationship. However, I came across some recent discoveries from Japan through one of their journal publication websites, which translates into English.

1 - Sticking with the recent space sector theme.

FUKUDA Seisuke (u-tokyo.ac.jp)

2- Both authors have 20 years service and are employed by Hitachi Ltd in the Research and Development Group. I like how they emphasise that the SNN model consumed only 1/130th of the power compared to the GPU-based alternative approach.

I located the complete article for the second one, and it's Loihi, which is disappointing because Hitachi is an IP partner of Renesas, and Renesas itself was a spin off company created by Hitachi and Mitsubishi back in the day.

Would need to check but I'm not sure SiFive architecture etc is open source.

Some of their software, tools, specs etc might be.

So, could be ok for them and us if they tied into the US and allies plus have the difference of being more secure in some aspects?

Yeah, isn’t SiFives RISKV architecture being used in NASAs space computer - would think it could not be open source for NASAs use.

Don't be too disheartened as the original manuscript is now almost 12 months old and the latest reference they used was May 2021 with most other references being years earlier.
BRN has come a long way since then and my understanding is Loihi is still being developed.

Well, If I had of sold at highs I could've bought both and a house with a garage big enough to put them both in! And instead of worrying about the SP, I could have just seen if it was Red or green each day, and taken the appropriate car out for the day.

Yeah. If you watch the SiFive vid I posted below he discusses what parts of RiscV is open source and which parts of SiFive are not. I found it interesting myself.

Was just doing a random word search & noticed this result pop up. Wasn't sure what this is but looked like some sort of word listing or frequencies of words. Saw in the "about this result" web link it appears related to course materials of a N C Rowe at the NPS. Quick search reveals he is a...

By the way, that BNP Paribas Clearstream Account with 4,47% belongs to the German Stock Exchange and bundles investments of the German industry.
Still a very interesting question, who's behind that Citicorp nominees account. Could easily add one more percent and install a non-exec director at the company. So maybe this could be the validation of a potential customer.

No, Anil Mankar is behind the MERRILL LYNCH (AUSTRALIA) NOMINEES PTY LIMITED holding. The No1 holding of Citicorp Nominees is unknown to date.

Agreed.

Is not easy unless you have access to the pro tools.

With nominee accounts, the company can, if they decided to, actually request the details of who sits behind those style of accounts from memory.

Presumably if one was maybe concerned as to who was building potential positions.

On the US aspect, you can also do various searches for Edgar Filings with keywords like Brainchip.

SEC.gov | EDGAR Full Text Search

Haven't looked into other exchanges filings.

Hiya Perhaps,
I believe Fullmoonfever’s memory does serve him excellently.
The Co can request the nominees a/c details such as Citicorp‘s Nominee A/c and as I understand, they have done this in the past, and would expect, if they so feel the need. Will do so in the future.
Just a friendly heads up.
Cheers

Edit. Woops. Sorry Perhaps. Didn’t realise Fullmoonfever had directly responded to your post.
Oh well maybe Just a FYI for others

Agree Xray1...
Something of magnitude would have to be happening (Happened!) to issue 15 Million shares to divvy up as a...'Well done team for your fantastic efforts and managing to get over these huge hurdles that were presented to you all' ?

Here's hoping something big is about to drop!!

I’m guessing this relates to the release of AKD2000.

15 million shares into the employee share scheme can't be bad.

Well I suppose that's because all the blood has rushed to your feet.

In an era marked by an insatiable appetite for artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, BrainChip, a pioneer in neural network processors, has taken a significant stride towards empowering edge devices with unprecedented processing power. The company’s latest unveiling, the second-generation Akida platform, represents a groundbreaking leap in the realm of Edge AI, delivering the potential to liberate devices from cloud dependency.
The initial glimpse of BrainChip’s original Akida neuromorphic processing technology at the Linley Fall Processor Conference in 2019 paved the way for a journey that materialized in the form of development kits for the general public in 2021. In March 2023, there was an announcement of Akida 2.0, a refinement promising support for Temporal Event-Based Neural Network (TENN) acceleration and optional vision transformer hardware. This enhancement not only amplifies the platform’s capabilities but also lightens the computational load on the host processor. BrainChip classified Akida 2.0 into three distinct product classes: Akida-E, prioritizing energy efficiency; Akida-S, designed for seamless integration into microcontroller units and systems-on-chips; and Akida-P, a high-performance range supplemented by optional vision transformer acceleration.

Now, BrainChip has initiated an “early access” program, granting access to the Akida 2.0 intellectual property (IP) and promising an “order of magnitude” improvement in compute density through TENNs support. This transformative leap is a testament to the inevitable shift towards Multimodal Edge AI, a trend intensifying the demands on intelligent computing at the Edge. Researchers laud this development, emphasizing that BrainChip’s second-generation Akida aligns precisely with the critical requisites of performance, efficiency, accuracy, and reliability necessary to expedite this transition.
Central to the Akida 2.0 platform are the TENNs, offering a staggering “order of magnitude” reduction in model size and computational requirements. This leap in efficiency augurs well for the acceleration of AI adoption and holds the promise of rendering Edge AI solutions more accessible and easy to deploy.

As BrainChip opens the gateway to the Akida 2.0 IP, eager innovators and tech enthusiasts are encouraged to reach out to the company’s sales department for further details. While pricing remains undisclosed at this juncture, the launch timeline for hardware development kits based on the second-generation platform is yet to be confirmed.
In conclusion, BrainChip’s introduction of the second-generation Akida platform is poised to redefine the landscape of Edge AI. With TENNs at its core, this innovation addresses the pressing need for enhanced performance, efficiency, and reliability in Edge computing.
