BRN Discussion Ongoing

[CHIPS]

I’m sure this has already been posted of the 2024 (April) internship but worth a read Looks like BC are up to project TENN.

Will project 1 be successful enough to attract MS, QC/Prophesee…

And again ... Doesn't anybody proofread such documents before publishing? See page 9, right side. There is something broken/missing.

So that's an "F" for project 3?

I thought it showcases the programming language for this step

Looks like the top margin has been expanded on the template, pushing some content down, as seen on other slides.

Whatever it was they intended to put in the top margin has been omitted.

No, it is an F for presentation skills of a company that should present itself perfectly. If I see such mistakes, others will also.
It is all about impression ...

I hope we can get them into BRN's University AI Accelerator Program, that would be fantastic.

Close to BRN headquarter so no excuses, fire up the Tesla and go and speak with them Sean or maybe Kris Carlson now you are there.

I am pretty sure such talks would already have taken place - whether anything came out of it remains to be seen.

Kris Carlson knows UC Irvine very well - from 2011-2015, he was a postdoc in Jeff Krichmar’s UC Irvine lab, which is nowadays known as the Cognitive Anteater Robotics Lab (CARL), its name presumably paying homage to UC Irvine’s mascot Peter the Anteater:

The conference organisers have even arranged for surfing lessons at the end of the conference - I wonder whether the surf instructor will be dressed as an anteater, too.

By the way, I love the image of the anteater robot our company’s graphic designer created to advertise BrainChip’s participation in that animat conference. Consistently excellent work there!

Here is an abstract of Kris Carlson’s talk scheduled for today:

Oh, and in case anyone missed it: CARL researchers recently published a YouTube video revealing they are no strangers to AKD1000…

https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-ongoing.1/post-432418

They had used an E-Puck mobile robot for their AKD1000 demo video, which reminded me of Tony Lewis referring to a puck-sized compact device as a visionary product during his CTO address at this year’s AGM:

Qualcomm Is About To Acquire Intel? Here's What We Know

Last year, Intel’s PC client business saw an 8 per cent decline in revenue, dropping to $29.3 billion, reflecting overall weakness in the PC market.

Probably not.

 

[The Pope]

From the AI hardware summit. “select appliance” I would love to know what this is about..

Yes atleast I know what RAG means now

Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) is the process of optimizing the output of a large language model, so it references an authoritative knowledge base outside of its training data sources before generating a response.

 

[manny100]

No doubt this will be considered pumping even though its fact - why?
Sean's interview after the AGM. From circa 1 min 30s Sean confirms our ability to win, we have been down selected on almost all of our engagements, meeting with C level execs and he knows decisions are coming in a relatively short period of time.
Worth another listen. I have no doubt Sean will come through for us.

BrainChip (ASX:BRN): Post AGM interview with CEO Sean Hehir

We spoke with Sean Hehir, CEO of BrainChip (ASX:BRN) to see where BrainChip is at with respect to signing additional commercial deals!

Managed to match Summer Internship Project Five with Keith Hoffmeister, a B.Sc. Computer Science and Engineering student at UCLA (which happens to be the alma mater of our CTO Tony Lewis).

I'm not sure, they are actually spending much time "chasing" University's, at least not now..

University's, can either join and have their undergraduates, at the forefront of neuromorphic technology, or not..

Hi Terroni,

your post reminded me of two comments by Laurent Hili I had spotted before going on holidays, but forgot to post a screenshot of:

What Wiki said:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosalind_Franklin_(rover)


Since the rover communicates with the ground controllers via the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO), and the orbiter only passes over the rover approximately twice per sol, the ground controllers will not be able to actively guide the rover across the surface. The Rosalind Franklin rover is therefore designed to navigate autonomously across the Martian surface.[39][40] Two stereo camera pairs (NavCam and LocCam) allow the rover to build up a 3D map of the terrain,[41] which the navigation software then uses to assess the terrain around the rover so that it avoids obstacles and finds an efficient route to the ground controller specified destination.

Apparently NASA has been training the Mars rover using something called machine learning.

NASA trains machine learning algorithm for Mars sample analysis​

by Matthew Kaufman, NASA

...

This machine learning algorithm can help us by quickly filtering the data and pointing out which data are likely to be the most interesting or important for us to examine," said Xiang "Shawn" Li, a mass spectrometry scientist in the Planetary Environments lab at NASA Goddard.

The algorithm will first be put to the test with data from Mars, by operating on an Earth-bound computer using data collected by the Mars Organic Molecule Analyzer (MOMA) instrument.

The analyzer is one of the main science instruments on the upcoming ExoMars mission Rosalind Franklin Rover, led by ESA (European Space Agency). The rover, which is scheduled to launch no earlier than 2028, seeks to determine if life ever existed on the Red Planet.

After Rosalind Franklin collects a sample and analyzes it with MOMA, data will be sent back to Earth, where scientists will use the findings to decide the best next course of action.

Alf is a funny guy. There is no chance to use Akida on ExaMars! Sorry!! Too late!!
