We all know why Sean here,why the elephant in the room,He’s here to give them all their 100k Christmas bonus’s in person for all there hard word improving shareholder value, Believe all sales staff are on a retainer they get 1k for every mum and dad investor they have sent broke for the year.
Just a note that directors did vote against the bonus but decided to give it to them anyway,but did take note of shareholder backlash,my opinion only not financial advice,but probably very close to the truth……..

I'm no tech head .......... but from my rather limited understanding... I believe that Qualcomm is cloud based. I would therefore presume that MB would have included Akida surely as a back up within their system to take over operations in the event of connectivity issues /drop out to the cloud was to somehow ever evenuate.

Also ....Once again I'm fairly sure that when MB firstly mentioned implementing Akida it was also mentioned shortly afterwards that they used the words to the effect that Akida was being adopted in a number of other MB "System's". If I am correct in my recall, I think this was announced at about the time when MB was boasting aloud about their much increased driving mileage range of 1,000 klms / charge.
You're right. It was the EQXX but nothing since. I was referring to their new MMA platform using the full blown MB.OS. Merc have a bad habit of chopping and changing which we've seen with the Lidar. Some might say "nimble on their feet". I had a "oh no" moment when I started reading about Qualcomm being involved but Jesse reassured me.

You raise another good point. I believe that Qualcomm is cloud based. They might be using it for the "over the air" system updates as well as uploading usage data to their data centres among other things. If they do use Akida, I don't believe it will be as a back-up system. Merc were impressed by its performance in the EQXX even though they only used it in a limited way in their MBUX.

it was also mentioned shortly afterwards that they used the words to the effect that Akida was being adopted in a number of other MB "System's - I saved the web address (still have it). When I tried to go back in about 12 months ago Merc had taken it down. When I first read it (1 of 20), my first reaction was Akida could be used in every sensor.

Hi MRGDS

linked to your above posts including this comment from your post this arvo stating “Have just had confirmation from TD, that he and SH are indeed together in Sydney presenting to investors”

This got be thinking after your posts and posts from others later this arvo but from a different angle given purely TD informed you that were presenting to “investors”. Could Sean and TD have been talking to institutional investors to potentially invest in BRN from a capital funding raise due to a potential longer runway before solid revenue starts truly covering quarterly 4C costs with staff etc launching AKIDA ? This may also be due to remaining LDA funding may not be enough to support BRN current position with staff etc $$$ burn rate so may be considering a SP discount to initially pitch to institutional investors and then maybe retail investors etc as required to buy in to BRN on a discount to current SP ? Obviously existing retail investors wouldn’t like this as SP would most likely drop further to discounted SP for atleast a little while. I know couple of other companies on ASX in recent times doing the same to shore up the cash reserves due to expected / unexpected delays etc. I know of one company that has since rebounded back nearly 2.5 times offer price in the past few months to the discounted SP. Happy to name the company if someone calls BS. Lol. It is a gold mining company

I know some may react quite strongly for and against my comments above with WTF, burning bin gifs etc.
Some may already have me on ignore without naming some founding members so will miss my post. Again lol

Just to confirm that I’m a committed BRN investor and wish all the best for the future on their investment in BRN.

Cheers

And when this happens, the share price will tank. The share price will do what the share price does. Execs will get a share allocation for meeting a goal of raising capital and share holders will be wiping the KY gel from their butt hole☹️😡🤬

IMO..... it's not a good look for either himself as the Co's Chairperson nor the Co's general financial / investor profile .

As we all know on the 3/11/23 (only some 3 days ago) he sold some 65,000 shares @.17c = $11,050.00 . I tend to be somewhat concerned as to why did he sell at this rather specific point in time and not wait for that supposed big announcement as is continually being alluded to by some of the 1,000 eyes to come through, which would / should drive up our share price to say even the $1.00 range mark which would have then given him at least a substantial $65,000.00 outcome / return rather than just a ~ $11,050.00 figure that he received.

IMO,.... there may just be a possibility of nothing coming up in the IP pipeline within the very near future as we have all been hoping for well before this Xmas or the next AGM.

:) :) :) No wonder SH & TD are here doing Investor Presentations !!!
CEO's and directors only have a couple of small windows of opportunity to buy or sell shares in a given year. Waiting for big announcements is construed as insider trading. Hence the windows.

On his way to TinyML being held in Seoul South Korea starting on 16 November...so why not stop off in Australia via the cape..no one is irreplaceable at Brainchip except for the 2 founders..KPIs being monitored.CEO interviews coming in my opinion.
The clock continues to tick as we patiently await further IP signings.
Fluff has left the building..hence the silence.
Best TECH.

People may have mistaken the coffee shop for our new offices in Sydney,thinkin again it probably is the coffee shop,but brainchip did’nt consider it price sensitive so they did’nt announce it,but if you read the hounds and hogs forum site it was probably announced there by management.

@Proga is correct.

You're smashing the guy for selling $11K worth of shares but the key issue you seem to have missed is that he is paid $112K BEFORE TAX, so his net pay is probably around $80,000 a year.

From that $80,000, he needs to cover the tax on $1.4m worth of shares. The tax is literally more than the his entire net pay. Many multiples more.

That doesn't include the rent/mortgage repayments/general living costs that he also needs to pay from the same $80,000 of net income.

and people wonder why executives sell their RSU's and performance shares as they are issued.....

Don't spin tax coverage selling as a negative sentiment by the director, it is misleading. He's selling because he literally earns less money then he pays in tax.

Go easy on schnitty. It's clear it doesn't understand a lot of what it's saying, let alone US taxation laws.

Does this mean you're on the verge of knitting your brows, but not quite there yet? :unsure:
There you go again trying to divert attention away from things by attacking a fellow poster here .....You deliberately used a few words of my post so as to mislead other posters here and satisfy your own inappropriate and unwarranted agenda ............ so here's the full part of my post again for your attention once again.

" I tend to be somewhat concerned" as to why did he sell at this rather specific point in time and not wait for that supposed big announcement as is continually being alluded to by some of the 1,000 eyes to come through, which would / should drive up our share price to say even the $1.00 range mark which would have then given him at least a substantial $65,000.00 outcome / return rather than just a ~ $11,050.00 figure that he received."

I believe that he is also a "Board of Director's" member at Arteris Inc ... so hopfully he is pulling an income from there as well.

I've done a search for AKIDA on google today, and set the timeframe for the last 24hrs. I've done this on multiple pc's, with different browsers, and the same search item about Qualcomm comes up 3rd in the list:


I've searched the words AKIDA, Brainchip & SNN on the website (and the source code) and none of them appear. I'm wondering why it appears in the list? Is there something to be gleaned from this?

View attachment 48868
Maybe take the search text referenced by Google below the link and search for it, once with and then without "". Often the web crawlers with such a narrow time window only find pages where something has been newly uploaded. If your search terms do not appear in the text under the link but are also not crossed out I would search for the term on the page in the text and via the internal search function. If nothing appears there either the crawler has probably created an incorrect link.
This is how I would do it.

Arm rolls out new smartphone tech and MediaTek signs up to use​

Arm rolls out new smartphone tech and MediaTek signs up to use

WhatsAppTelegramFacebookTwitterEmailLinkedIn

Arm Ltd on Monday rolled out new chip technology for mobile devices and Taiwan smartphone chip maker MediaTek Inc said it will be using it for its next-generation product.
MediaTek, a longtime supplier of low- and mid-tier smart phone chips, has been pushing into the market to supply chips for premium smartphones, once dominated by rival Qualcomm Inc, which has been in a legal battle with Arm since last year over chip licensing agreements.
In Arm's blog announcing the new products, MediaTek said the new chips will help improve the performance of its next-generation smartphones.
Arm sells blueprints chip designers use to build their own hardware. It is launching Immortalis-G720, a chip for video image processing and AI applications, and the Cortex-X4, a processor that would be the brains of the mobile device at Taiwan's Computex conference.
Arm said both new chips have 15 per cent better performance than their previous generations, and the Cortex-X4 uses 40 per cent less power, key for smartphones that need to keep battery use time long.
Arm also said it has "taped out" the Cortex-X4 at Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., which means it had a chip manufactured at the factory, an expensive process usually done by chip designers that sell the final chip.
Asked by Reuters during a briefing if the tape out meant Arm was making a chip to sell instead of its long-time business model of providing the blueprint to chip makers, Chris Bergey, the general manager of Arm's Client Line of Business, said this was a step it sometimes takes to help test out new manufacturing technology for customers.
"Arm is not in the business of selling chips. That's not what we do," he said.
Last month the Financial Times reported that Arm was developing its own chip to showcase the capabilities of its designs.
Arm said the Cortex-X4 was taped out on TSMC's N3E process and said it was an industry first.


Could you soon be running AI tasks right on your smartphone? MediaTek says yes​

MediaTek is working with Meta's Lllama 2 LLM to run generative AI tasks directly on mobile devices, no cloud-based processing required.

For on-device generative AI to access these datasets, mobile carriers would have to rely on low-latency edge networks -- small data centers/equipment closets with fast connections to the 5G towers. These data centers would reside directly on the carrier's network, so LLMs running on smartphones would not need to go through many network "hops" before accessing the parameter data.




Here we go: MediaTek is throwing down the gauntlet to Apple, Google (Nandan Nayampally recently liked the LinkedIn announcement of their Tensor G3 chip in the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro 🤔), Qualcomm…



MediaTek’s New All Big Core Design for Flagship Dimensity 9300 Chipset Maximizes Smartphone Performance and Efficiency​

Supercharged SoC supports generative AI on-device processing for seamless, secure edge AI experiences​

Nov 6, 2023 - 7:30 PM
HSINCHU, Taiwan – Nov. 6, 2023 MediaTek today announced the Dimensity 9300, its newest flagship mobile chip with a one-of-a-kind All Big Core design. The unique configuration combines extreme performance with MediaTek’s industry-leading power efficiency to deliver unmatched user experiences in gaming, video capture, and on-device generative AI processing.

“The Dimensity 9300 is MediaTek’s most powerful flagship chip yet, bringing a huge boost in raw computing power to flagship smartphones with our groundbreaking All Big Core design,” said Joe Chen, President at MediaTek. “This unique architecture, combined with our upgraded on-chip AI Processing Unit, will usher in a new era of generative AI applications as developers push the limits with edge AI and hybrid AI computing capabilities.”

MediaTek’s next generation APU 790 AI processor is integrated into the Dimensity 9300 and designed to significantly improve generative AI performance and energy efficiency for faster and more secure edge computing.
The APU 790 doubles the integer and floating-point operations performance, while reducing power consumption by 45%. By adapting the Transformer model for operator acceleration, the processing speed of the APU 790 is 8 times faster than the previous generation, with image generation within one second using Stable Diffusion.

MediaTek has developed mixed-precision INT4 quantization technology, which when combined with the company’s NeuroPilot memory hardware compression, can more efficiently utilize memory bandwidth and significantly reduce memory requirements for large AI models. The APU 790 provides support for NeuroPilot Fusion, which can continuously perform LoRA low-rank adaptation, and is capable of supporting large language models with 1B, 7B, and 13B parameters, with scalability up to 33B. As part of MediaTek’s rich AI ecosystem, the Dimensity 9300 will support cutting-edge mainstream large language models including Meta Llama 2, Baichuan 2, Baidu AI LLM, and more. This helps developers quickly and efficiently deploy multi-modal generative AI applications to provide users with generative AI experiences such as text, images, and music.

With the latest flagship GPU from Arm, the Arm® Immortalis™-G720, the Dimensity 9300 supercharges mobile gaming experiences. The Dimensity 9300 offers an almost 46% boost in GPU performance while at the same level of power consumption as the Dimensity 9200. Similarly impressive, the Dimensity 9300 provides a 40% reduction in GPU power consumption at the same level of performance as the previous generation chipset. This provides users with a big performance upgrade without sacrificing battery life. By combining the chipset’s extreme octa-core CPU design with MediaTek’s second generation hardware raytracing engine, smartphones powered by the Dimensity 9300 will deliver console-level global illumination effects at a smooth 60 FPS. Plus, this powerful chipset allows users to seamlessly multi-task so they can game and video stream at the same time or watch another video while they play.

The Dimensity 9300 reimagines mobile photography and video capture by combining a low-power AI-ISP and always-on HDR up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second (fps). The chipset also supports 4K at 30 fps cinematic mode with real-time bokeh tracking for professional quality bokeh enhancements, as well as 4K AI Noise Reduction (AI-NR) and AI processing on RAW photos and videos. Additionally, the Dimensity 9300 will support the new Ultra HDR format in Android 14 for the next generation of smartphones. Ultra HDR is a big step forward for mobile photography, making photos look much more vibrant while ensuring that files are compatible with the nearly universally-supported JPEG format. Further enhancing users’ photography, the Dimensity 9300 supports groundbreaking ambient light adaptive HDR recovery technology.

The Dimensity 9300 display system leverages the chipset’s powerful on-device AI capability to detect primary objects and background images in real-time. Coupled with the MiraVision Picture Quality (PQ) engine, it will dynamically adjust the optimal contrast, sharpness, and color of the primary objects, enhancing the overall image with a sense of depth creating lifelike video experiences, comparable to today’s Flagship DTVs.

Since connectivity is essential part of the user experience, the Dimensity 9300 supports Wi-Fi 7 speeds up to 6.5 Gbps and integrates MediaTek Xtra RangeTM Technology for better long-range connectivity. With MediaTek’s Multi-Link Hotspot technology, Dimensity 9300 also improves smartphone tethering speeds by up to 3X compared to competitive solutions.

Other key features of the MediaTek Dimensity 9300 include:
  • Big core power: The Dimensity 9300 is built on TSMC’s third generation 4nm process with four Arm Cortex™-X4 cores with operating speeds of up to 3.25GHz and four Cortex-A720 cores operating up to 2.0GHz to maximize performance.
  • Faster display speeds: The chipset supports WQHD at 180Hz and 4K up to 120Hz to provide stunning visuals, along with dual active display support for foldable form factors.
  • Seamless 5G connectivity: The 5G R16 modem supports 4CC-CA Sub-6GHz and 8CC-CA mmWave with MediaTek’s UltraSave 3.0+ technology for improved power efficiency.
  • Speedy memory: Dimensity 9300 supports LPDDR5T 9600Mbps memory, currently the highest speed available.
Equally important to these features centered around the user experience, the Dimensity 9300 offers superior security for flagship Android devices. The chipset’s privacy-focused security design resists physical attacks on data access by protecting important processes during boot-up and when performing secure computing. With the Cortex-X4 and Cortex-A720 processors built on the latest Armv9 architecture, the chipset supports Arm’s advanced Memory Tagging Extension (MTE) technology that makes it easier for developers to find memory related bugs before and after deployment. MTE, which Google has committed to supporting across its entire Android stack, will help keep users safe and accelerate the development process so OEMs can speed up time to market.

The first smartphones featuring the Dimensity 9300 chipset will be available in the market by end of 2023.

MediaTek Challenges Qualcomm With AI-Assisted Dimensity 9300 Chip for Phones​

MediaTek claims its new flagship mobile processor, the Dimensity 9300, will provide the performance, AI power, and multimedia capabilities needed to take on the best chips from Apple, Google, and Qualcomm.​

MediaTek today announced the Dimensity 9300, its top chip for high-end Android smartphones and tablets. The 9300 arrives in a market full of capable mobile processors that target top-tier devices. What sets it apart are its new "all big core CPU" design for blazing speeds, re-engineered GPU for on-device AI, and boosted media engine for cinematic video capture. Here's what you need to know.

Extreme Performance​

MediaTek is taking a different tack with its CPU. It's relying on TSMC's third-generation 4nm process. The Dimensity 9300 employs four ultra-large cores and four big cores to maximize power output. Competing CPUs, such as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3's Kryo CPU, mix and match premium, performance, and efficiency cores to balance power with battery life.

The 9300 features four Cortex-X4 premium cores at up to 3.25GHz and four Cortex-A720 performance cores at up to 2.0GHz. MediaTek says this octa-core arrangement packs a 15% increase in single-core performance and a 40% increase in multi-core performance all while drawing 33% less power than the company's Dimensity 9200. The CPU supports up to 8MB L3 cache and 10MB system cache with LPDDR5 memory running at up to 9,600Mbps. This means the chip has plenty of oomph.

The next piece of the Dimensity 9300 puzzle is the APU 790 AI processor, which MediaTek says is meant to generate faster, more secure artificial intelligence calculations on the device itself rather than the cloud. The company says the APU 790 doubles integer and floating-point operations and reduces power use by 45% at the same time.
On a whole, the APU is 8x faster than the previous APU and can generate images via Stable Diffusion as rapidly as one second. MediaTek is employing the Meta Llama 2, Baudi Ernie-3.5, and Baichuan AI large language models and can handle 7 billion parameters at 20 tokens per second and 13 billion parameters with 16GB of RAM. Peak rates of 33 billion parameters are possible with an additional, unspecified amount of RAM. In other words, the 9300 can assist with creative AI applications on-device.


MediaTek also overhauled the Arm Immortalis-G720 GPU, which now has 12 cores and produces 46% better ray-tracing performance. The company claims it can handle "console level" illumination effects and still save 40% memory bandwidth. In early benchmarks, MediaTek suggests the GPU runs 23% faster than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in tests like GFXBench Manhattan 3.1.

In order to tackle the high-end media-capture capabilities of the 8 Gen 3, Apple's A17 Pro, and Google's Tensor G3, MediaTek tweaked the image-signal processor with what it calls second-generation semantic analysis aided by AI. It supports always-on HDR for 4K video capture with depth-of-field and bokeh effects in video. It handles up to 16 object segmentation for advanced editing, standalone optical image stabilization for sharp zoom shots, and up to three-mic HDR audio noise reduction. The chip also supports higher-tier displays. It can handle 4K screens at up to 120Hz and 2,560 by 1,440 screens at up to 180Hz, in addition to Google's Ultra HDR support on devices running Android 14
(Credit: Eric Zeman)
The Dimensity 9300 packs a modern connectivity suite to ensure the phones and tablets of 2024 always have a strong signal. To start, the chip supports 3GPP Rel. 16 with up to 7Gbps downloads on sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G networks. The modem includes Wi-Fi 7, which, though not yet generally available to the public, will be during the lifetime of the 9300. Features on board include 320MHz of bandwidth, extended range, multi-link hotspot, and a combined Wi-Fi/Bluetooth UltraSave receiver. These radios all keep the 9300 current with its SoC peers and the networks of today and tomorrow.

MediaTek says the Dimensity 9300 will appear in smartphones before the end of the year, which is approximately the same timeline announced for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. MediaTek's SoC is likely to find itself in phones targeting China and similar markets. The company has not named its launch partners, but with just a few weeks left in the year those companies and their devices are sure to come to light soon.
