It's hard when, beyond patent protection, beyond the protection of NDAs, beyond the use of cyber security...
You have to rely on the decency and morals of human beings and business corporations.
Making money and being successful, is all well and good, but if it's made through dishonest practices, it is only poison to those who take it, I believe.
One of the oldest sayings, is that "Money is the root of all Evil"..
But it's like guns, guns don't kill people, people do.
They just make it all too easy..

It’s ‘love of money…’, not money itself.
Maybe guns should be fitted with an emotion detector inhibitor:
How AI-Emotion Analysis works
On a high level, an AI emotion application or vision system includes the following steps:
Step #1: Acquire the image frame from a camera feed (IP, CCTV, USB camera).
Step #2: Preprocessing of the image (cropping, resizing, rotating, color correction).
Step #3: Extract the important features with a CNN model
Step #4: Perform emotion classification

The problem with guns is, they are just so good at their designed purpose.
When I see in a film, someone pointing a gun at someone and the other person saying "Go ahead do it, you don't have the guts"..
I think it's just madness!!
This is the more likely outcome..

What a great idea Diogenese guns that will only shoot emotional people. Anything for a quiet life.
As for your psychopaths I am sure AKIDA could identify those who do not have an appropriate response to the elimination of emotional people around them and take care of them as well. 
In Australia ensuring we do not grow up to be Americans has been a triumph for commonsense.
On a serious note all those who harbour deep resentment because Valeo maintains a veil of secrecy over Scala 3 and its smart ultra sonic sensors take note that it is not just the CCP who are out there trying to profit from other peoples good ideas.

Good morning,
What an appointment, when our new CTO takes over officially on 1 January 2024 (I assume) I feel that we are in for a nice surprise, I refer
back to that weird dream I had a few months ago about a shareholder meeting on 9 January, very strange !
Tony Lewis' network appears, at first glance, to be massive. Peter has a massive network as well, but it will be interesting watching this
change play out over the first 12 months, the path has already been well laid out, but once again new doors will open, will Tonys approach
be different to Peters, as in a, bigger personality, more well known within the industry ? I'm just not sure.
Despite Peter being able to spend more time on maybe religious study or working on his property in the Southwest of WA (planting trees),
enjoying time with his grandkids or even working through a long list of jobs his wife has probably handed him
I suspect that Brainchip won't be too far from his thoughts.
Hopefully Dr Tony will make his way down to Australia to attend our next AGM and visit the Research Innovation Centre in Perth.. I leave you
today with a quote,
"Once we have market dominance we run native cortical networks that go way beyond what current CNNs or LSTMs can do. That is my vision."
There is only one Peter van der Made, never forget the original founder of Brainchip Holdings Ltd, no disrespect to Anil as they already know that I love both of them, both great guys, both geniuses in their respective fields.
Anyone game enough to name Brainchip's real competitor/s.....research chips back on the lab bench don't count....Brainchip deals in
REAL TIME, PROVEN TECHNOLOGY, AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE YESTERDAY !!!!

A good use case for Akida - visual confirmation of the expected user not allowing fire otherwise. All guns could be fitted with a visual signature allowing them to only be fired by the legally rightful owner.

Microsoft to build nuclear plants for powering AI
Microsoft is betting on nuclear power to drive the development of artificial intelligence. Small modular reactors (SMRs) are now set to power the energy-intensive AI. The company is also investing in a project to generate nuclear power through fusion.

$3B for packaging program; DARPA’s 3DHI; AI yield improvement tool; OpenAI CEO reinstated; EV consumer sentiment; SiC market projections; RISC-V security model; AI edge devices; ESD discharge; ML in failure analysis.

The U.S. government will invest about $3 billion for the National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program (NAPMP), including an advanced packaging piloting facility to help U.S. manufacturers adopt new technology and workforce training programs. It also will provide funding for projects concentrating on materials and substrates; equipment, tools, and processes; power delivery and thermal management; photonics and connectors; a chiplet ecosystem; and co-design for test, repair, security, interoperability, and reliability. NAPMP is one of four CHIPS for America R&D programs, along with National Semiconductor Technology Center (NSTC), Manufacturing USAinstitute(s), and CHIPS R&D Metrology.
“Within a decade, we envision that America will both manufacture and package the world’s most sophisticated chips,” said Laurie Locascio, director of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). “This means both onshoring a high-volume advanced packaging industry that is self-sustaining, profitable and environmentally sound, and conducting the research to accelerate new packaging approaches to market.”
OpenAI fired founder and CEO Sam Altman, then reinstated him and sacked three of the board members who dismissed him. The move follows a warning from 700 of the 770 employees at the company said they join Altman at Microsoft if he was not reinstated at OpenAI. Microsoft owns 49% of OpenAI, and agreed to hire Altman after his dismissal.
Japan’s Resonac announced plans for an advanced packaging and materials R&D facility in Silicon Valley. The company plans to begin operations in 2025.
