His mates shorting the stock or hes a flog... reminds me of Elon saying we don't need cobalt for batteries to push the price down so he could more than likely get offtake cheaper on the price tanking as he is a demi God on all things ev....🤔 Simon says shite

Smart guy, stupid fish....you know what I mean?
I would say he is shorting the stock and a flog shorting really does seem to attract some massive egos some absolute flogs amongst them unfortunately.

This guy seems to think Brainchips Akida won't be advanced enough based on this IBM research 😂


Hi Auseire,

What happens when a snake swallows its tail?
  • Syed Ghazi Sarwat IBM

We set out to create a memristive synapse that can express the different plasticity rules, such as long-term and short-term plasticity and their combinations using commercial PCM — at the nanoscale. We achieved this by using the combination of the non-volatility (from amorphous-crystalline phase transitions) and volatility (from electrostatics change) in PCMs.

Phase change materials have been independently researched for memory and transistor applications, but their combination for neuromorphic computing has not been previously explored. Our demonstration shows how the non-volatility of the devices can enable long-term plasticity while the volatility provides the short-term plasticity and their combination allows for other mixed-plasticity computations, much like in the mammalian brain.

We began testing our idea toward the end of 2019, starting by using the volatility property in the devices for a different application: compensating for the non-idealities in phase change computational memories. Our team fondly remembers chatting over coffee, discussing the first experimental results that would allow us to take the next step of building the synthetic synapses we originally imagined. With some learning and trial and error during the pandemic, by early 2021 we had our first set of results and things worked out the way we had imagined

[0045] Embodiments of the invention provide neural systems comprising neuromorphic and synaptronic networks including spiking neuronal networks based on STDP learning rules for neuromorphic integrated circuits. One embodiment of the invention provides spike-based computation using CMOS electronic neurons interacting with each other through nanoscale memory synapses such as Phase Change Memory (PCM) circuits.

Again, this is very early research as proof-of-concept. It won't be out before Akida 7000.

Our results are more exploratory than actual system-level demonstrations. In the latest paper, we propose a new synaptic concept that does more than a fixed synaptic weighing operation, as is the case in modern artificial neural networks. While we plan to take this approach further, we believe our existing proof-of-principle results already elucidate significant scientific interest in the broader areas of neuromorphic engineering — in computing and understanding the brain better from its more faithful emulations.

Our devices are based on a well-researched technology and are easy to fabricate and operate. The key challenge we see is the at-scale implementation, stringing together our computational primitive and other hardware blocks. Building a full-fledged computational core with our devices will require a rethinking of the design and implementation of peripheral circuitries

It turns out he's posted some positive articles about Brainchip as well. 🤔 Maybe Sharemanz got to him? 😂
Sharemans reach would be awfully large if he did. Although i believe... it could be Mike Davies taking on many different forms. ;) haha.

We all know whats coming.. so meh. Another opinion that doesnt mean much.

He's after posting a few times about Brainchip in the last few days it seems! He's very sceptical.
@Diogenese or @uiux or @Fact Finder or someone else might be able to decipher the article for us in the Twitter link?

Why are we wasting time on the random ramblings of this bloke?

He obviously has no idea about the technology.

This article is about neurons with analog inputs.

SiFive are doing some massive hiring planning on doubling their staff numbers this year from 700 to 1400

SiFive speeds up computing chip designs as it staffs up​

By Stephen Nellis


Appliance and Electronics World Expo (AWE) in Shanghai



Dec 2 - Chip technology firm SiFive Inc on Thursday said it has sped up its computing core designs by 40% and now has a headcount of 700 employees, with plans to double its staff by next year.

The Silicon Valley startup is aiming to challenge the dominance of Arm Ltd in supplying key parts of computing chip designs that are used throughout the semiconductor industry.

Arm licenses its technology to major firms like Apple Inc (AAPL.O) and Qualcomm Inc (QCOM.O) and is being purchased by Nvidia Corp (NVDA.O) in a deal worth more than $54 billion, though the deal faces regulatory hurdles because firms like Qualcomm have objected to it.

SiFive said its new P650 computing core designs will be available to some of its customers early next year, at which point it will likely take more than a year to find its way into physical chips. SiFive claims the P650 computing core should be competitive with Arm's A77 computing cores, which were found in many smartphone chips released in 2019 and 2020.

The estimated 40% speed boost from SiFiv's previous design, called the P550, has come in only five months, while Arm in the past has announced new computing cores about once a year. SiFive Chief Executive Patrick Little said he believes he can close the gap with his firm's much larger competitor.

"We should be at the top of Arm's line within the next couple of year's - that's what customers are driving us towards," Little said.
Little said the company plans to double its headcount by next year to 1,400. SiFive has made significant hires this year, such as Chris Lattner, a former software executive at Apple Inc (AAPL.O) and Tesla Inc (TSLA.O), and Rohit Kumar, who helped design multiple generations of custom processors for Apple's iPhones and iPads.

Thanks Csharmo,

Now the question is, can SiFive provide the spark for Brainchip to shine on the ASX.

20220405_230808.jpg


As somes had discussed today, some ASX investors don't understand the magnitude of what Akida technology is capable off, and are selling BRN at 50% discount.
We will find out tonight, with this news, and how the overseas market response to it. And how the ASX investors response to this fantastic news.

Its great to be a shareholder.
