Memes tell the story of a secret war in tech. It's no joke

You've heard the arguments to put the brakes on the development of powerful Artificial Intelligence. But this secretive tech movement wants to do exactly the opposite.

Just listened to the podcast on ABC Background Briefing.
Very interesting how quickly this is all developing and on how many fronts simultaneously.

Meet the AI insiders who say it’s time to ‘accelerate or die’ - ABC listen

They have anonymous leaders, manifestos, and even a flag with a snake on it.

Rumor: Nintendo Switch 2 Reveal Could Happen Next Month

Japanese gaming juggernaut Nintendo will supposedly reveal the successor to its popular Switch handheld, the Switch 2, in March.

Feeling hopeful on this one Bravo.

This is the other side of my computer sticky note which was written by the looks around may 2023, so Metroid Prime 4 may be due for release soon too.
We are in good company with Megachips and Megachips is in good company with Nintendo.
Will my sticky note come alive?

Several points here:

• Spike rate or spike time
• Existing algorithms only partly take advantage of neural technology (MB working on algorithms to take advantage of neuromorphic computing)
• Still need automotive-grade neuromorphic chips before this tech is common in cars.
• 
  
• Extend vehicle range
• Increase the number of AI functions
• 2020 Joined Intel Nueromorphic Research Community
• Expanding collaboratons with research partners and unis

Spike rate was shown by Thorpe, referring to Adrian's 1920's paper, to be redundant. Thorpe invented spike rank coding (N-of-M coding, enabling insignificant spikes to be ignored. Maybe the reference to spike rate is a red herring for competitors, but their DD would be deficient if they don't know about MB + Akida and that Akida uses rate coding.

New neuromorphic-aware algorithms may produce further time/energy savings.

We know MB is developing an MB.OS processor with Nvidia and some friends, so this will be automotive grade (probably similar to RadHard for NASA, and Vorago has already done that for Akida).

Hi ILL,

I see several points here:

• Spike rate or spike time
• Existing algorithms only partly take advantage of neural technology (MB working on algorithms to take advantage of neuromorphic computing)
• Still need automotive-grade neuromorphic chips before this tech is common in cars.
• Extend vehicle range
• Increase the number of AI functions
• 2020 Joined Intel Nueromorphic Research Community
• Expanding collaboratons with research partners and unis

Although we have seen a couple of articles on spike rate recently, spike rate was shown by Thorpe, referring to Adrian's 1920's paper, to be redundant. Thorpe invented spike rank coding (spike time coding) (N-of-M coding), enabling insignificant spikes to be ignored. Maybe the reference to spike rate is a red herring for competitors, but their DD would be deficient if they don't know about MB + Akida and that Akida uses rate coding. So really lip service to the NDAs, or a nod to a couple of decades of waster research.

New neuromorphic-aware algorithms may produce further time/energy savings.

We know MB is developing an MB.OS processor with Nvidia and some friends, so this will be automotive grade (probably similar to RadHard for NASA, and Vorago has already done that for Akida).

Increasing the number of AI functions can only be good for Akida.

Extend vehicle range ties in with increasing the number of AI functions plus advantages from neuromorphic-aware algorithms.

... and then there's the ecosystem - we're in with MB, Nvidia, and probably everyone else on MB's dance card.

This is the body of the email, I just sent Tony Dawe.
I will let the forum know, if there is a response or information I can post, regarding the subject

"You may have noticed, there has been some discussion on TSEx about Dr Tony Lewis's LinkedIn comment, concerning small LMs and neuromorphic hardware.

His comments, in my opinion, were ambiguous.
He said both, neuromorphic hardware using them and the VSLMs themselves "hold promise".
Also stating, to his knowledge, BrainChip would be the first to implement this, at the Edge.

To me, he said they are still working on it, but it could also be, that he, being commercially minded, was saying..
"We've done it, but AKD2000 doesn't exist yet, so it's still just in simulation".


In FactFinder's post, about the November 6th private shareholder meeting, he stated the following.

"It has been confirmed by the CEO Sean Hehir in person to myself and others that Brainchip has succeeded in developing and running a number of Large Language Models, LLMs, on AKIDA 2.0 and that AKIDA 3.0 is on track and that its primary purpose will be to focus on running LLM's as its point of technology difference".

Straight off the bat, FactFinder refers to LLMs, not the "very small" or "tiny" LMs, that Dr Tony, refers to having promise.
So either he misquoted Sean, or Sean referenced LLMs.

From the above meeting, it appears that, at the very least, very small LMs are successfully running, in simulation, on AKIDA 2.0 and this is now public knowledge?

My questions are..

Are VSLMs running successfully on AKIDA 2.0, or are they still ironing out the bugs and this will be more an AKIDA 3.0 focused, game?

If they are running successfully, this would be considered quite a huge achievement (being a World first and considering the current hunger, for such technology).
Why hasn't the Company made a proper statement/Tweet, or something, when the information is apparently public knowledge?

It seems to me, that it would be in the Company's best interest (as well as us shareholders of course) to at least "tap" the drum and not have to rely on Chinese whispers etc?"

Interesting read FF,
That led me to another term I had not been aware of but suspected was a tactic used by shorters in collusion.
A Bear Raid.
In a typical bear raid, short sellers may conspire beforehand to quietly establish large short positions in the target stock. Since the short interest in the stock increases the risk of a short squeeze that can inflict substantial losses on the shorts, the short sellers cannot afford to wait patiently for months until their short strategy works out.


The next step in the bear raid is akin to a smear campaign, with whispers and rumors about the company spread by unknown sources. These rumors can be anything that portrays the target company in a negative light, such as allegations of accounting fraud, an SEC investigation, an earnings miss, financial difficulties, and so on. The rumors may cause nervous investors to exit the stock in droves, driving the price down further and giving the short sellers the profit they are looking for.

That is more common than we think.
Huge shorters will use both social and established media to put out negative stories about a company.
