Hey FJ, what became known as "Akida" was always the end goal, it's in our name
The software solutions of "BrainChip" Studio and "BrainChip" Accelerator, were supposed to be a profitable bridge, to that goal.
They spent way too much money, building that bridge, which wasn't spanning the length and then decided to focus solely on "The Chip".
BrainChip, has encountered many roadblocks and detours, some of its own making and some outside our control..
We've been working at providing the market, something that it didn't need yet (going against the wisdom, of someone like Steve Jobs).
"We" can see the pure genius, in truly "Independent A.I." but the Market wasn't there yet.
Ken Scarince, said a few years ago now, that we were "disrupting a Market that hadn't been created yet".
Well that Market is
now being created.
So I don't think we'll have to wait too much longer..
Software is now back on the table, in a big way too, due to everything changing so quickly, but "chips" will still be needed, in "Far Edge" applications, which will be practically everywhere and in everything.
Unless we're
all wrong of course
