BRN Discussion Ongoing

Right Place, Right Time, Right Team, Right Targeted Approach....the writing is on the wall...investment opportunities of this potential
magnitude should never be ignored in my view.

Tech.
Tech just a question,

If at nxt yrs AGM the company hasn't got another IP signing across the line, Where would the company be heading,does Sean heir survive ?

Aramaco Ventures & Qualcomm just announced their collaboration on several technologies including artificial intelligence.

Coincidentally:
  • In February 2022, Aramaco Ventures via its Prosperity7 Ventures fund, also led Rain AI's neuromorphic chip start up $25M funding round.
  • In September 2022, Aramaco Ventures via its Prosperity7 Ventures fund invested in Prophesee.
  • In December 2023, the Joe Biden administration forced a Saudi Aramco-backed venture capital firm to sell its shares in Rain AI.

Hmmm ... it never Rains*, but it's poor.

The original Rain AI analog random nanowire tech, which was also backed by Sam Altman to the tune of $50M of OpenAi's money (and a little of his own) was a complete fizzer, and they are now pursuing a totally different digital approach.

Their random nanowire NN, which so beguiled Altman and the Saudis, confused the brain's complexity with chaos.

1716707680876.png


[0035] As indicated in the cross-sectional view of FIG. 3 B, not all nanowires 310 have electrodes located at the same cross-sectional cut. Although electrodes 350 are arranged in a rectangular array, memristive device 300 is not a crossbar array. Instead, nanowires 310 are dispersed on substrate 302 . In some embodiments, nanowires 310 are randomly or pseudo-randomly distributed across substrate 302 . In some embodiments, nanowires 310 have a distribution that is replicated multiple times across substrate. However, the arrangement of nanowires 310 in a particular replication may not be ordered. In other embodiments, the distribution of nanowires 310 may not be random or pseudo-random, but is not an ordered array. For example, two nanowires 310 may cross in multiple locations.

Rain have now moved on to what they call digital-in-memory, but this patent application is for analog-in-memory with DAC/ADC.

1716708312571.png



[0036] FIG. 3 depicts an embodiment of a cell in one embodiment of an SRAM CIM module usable for CIM module 230 . Also shown is DAC 202 of compute engine 200 . For clarity, only one SRAM cell 310 is shown. However, multiple SRAM cells 310 may be present. For example, multiple SRAM cells 310 may be arranged in a rectangular array. An SRAM cell 310 may store a weight or a part of the weight. The CIM module shown includes lines 302 , 304 , and 318 , transistors 306 , 308 , 312 , 314 , and 316 , capacitors 320 (Cs) and 322 (CL ). In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3 , DAC 202 converts a digital input voltage to differential voltages, V1 and V2 , with zero reference. These voltages are coupled to each cell within the row. DAC 202 is thus used to temporal code differentially. Lines 302 and 304 carry voltages V1 and V2 , respectively, from DAC 202 . Line 318 is coupled with address decoder 270 (not shown in FIG. 3 ) and used to select cell 310 (and, in the embodiment shown, the entire row including cell 310 ), via transistors 306 and 308.

So what does Rain have up its sleeve? (wet elbow, cold shoulder, goosebumps, ...)

CEO at Rain for 6 years, Gordon laid the foundation for Rain to become a leading AI infrastructure company. He is a lifelong storyteller and scientific communicator.

I think the Biden administration has done the Saudis a favour.

Hey 7, it doesn't bother me at all, nor did I take it seriously, I was actually poking fun at it 😛

I just don't think it's a good idea.
If it worked properly, it would be okay for sight impaired people..

But I don't think "regular" folk, would be caught dead wearing it, unless they're a complete dork..

Sam Altman, is apparently working on a similar project, so "he" sees merit in the idea (note above comment) and he's doing just a bit better than me 🙄...
Hey dingo, I am slowly losing the ability to distinguish fun, slight provocations, and irony from seriousness, especially since some people react so allergically. I also meant my post as a little joke... Nevertheless, I find this technology to be groundbreaking for a communication device. Whether it is fully developed now is another question. They were probably too greedy

Yep. And opening a new AI institute in Zurich beginning of this year.

BOSTON DYNAMICS AI INSTITUTE COMING TO ZURICH​

Nov 06, 2023 11:26Michaela Mersetzky, Greater Zurich Area/Café Europe

The Boston Dynamics AI Institute of the Hyundai Motor Company will establish a presence in Zurich at the start of 2024.

The team in place here is set to focus on core areas of the institute such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), hardware design, machine learning, mobile manipulation and robot ethics.

The Boston Dynamics AI Institute is set to bring a develop team to Zurich at the start of 2024. In so doing, the organization, which is based in Cambridge in the US State of Massachusetts and focuses on leveraging the benefits of Artificial Intelligence, intends to support further growth and attract the best talent in Europe, as the Institute writes in a press release.

“The Zurich team will expand the Institute’s focus in core areas such as AI, hardware design, machine learning, dexterous mobile manipulation, and robot ethics, and will help us connect to talent, universities, and research organizations in the vibrant European ecosystem”, the press release states. According to information from the Institute, its culture is geared towards bringing together the best features of academic research labs and corporate development labs.

The Boston Dynamics AI Institute was founded in August 2022 by Marc Raibert, who previously founded Boston Dynamics, a robotics company based in Waltham, in 2013. It primarily focuses on researching and developing autonomous mobile robots, initially for the US military. In 2020, Boston Dynamics was taken over by the Hyundai Motor Company.

To begin with, Hyundai and Boston Dynamics invested more than 400 million US dollars to launch the Boston Dynamics AI Institute, further details of which can be found in a press release. In its first year of operation, the Institute has expanded its research, technical and operational teams to over 150 employees and brought on board ten guest professors, who work across 100,000 square meters of lab and office space in the heart of Cambridge

This patent is innocent of neural networks and artificial intelligence. It just has a "control". It is directed to the mechanical aspects of the robodog.

Again, no NN or AI.

One concern about Zurich is that it is home to a lot of analog NN Unis/startups.

I was just wondering if there has been any comments on the directors purchasing shares recently. I probably missed it but was hoping someone could put forward opinions of why all of a sudden 5 directors decided to purchase.
Was it to show confidence in the company or ….?
