BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Slade]

That's why I think it's so odd that Hyundai, of all companies has engaged them.....very peculiar.

Was thinking perhaps, Hyundai are just using them to help with the software stack and at the same time claiming the "quantum technology" is the hero because it sounds impressive when really it may be akida........

Just a wild conspiracy theory, but I've long suspected Hyundai and BRN

I think you are right. I think a lot of companies have invested in technology that only offers part of the solution they are seeking. With Akida they get the missing link, whatever that may be. They are adopting Akida but are reluctant to throw away the tech and marketing that they have spent mega dollars and time on.

Loved his work in Fargo ... and the body count was only slightly less than the Korean War ...

... must dig something out of my Cohen Bros library tonight.

First saw Fargo on a QANTAS flight home. Went out and bought myself a wood chipper and my lawn has never looked better.

Thought this was worth getting a few educated opinions on.............

They say they've developed a new Nueral Net processor called GAP9. From what I can tell from the articles i've found, it's been in the works from at least 2019. But recently, the graphics have changed on the cpu layout..........uses milliwatts of power

Anyone have any thoughts on this?

Thats OK.

I'll take "most popular" stock................... for now.

Soon to be followed no doubt by "most likely next Unicorn" stock.

And shortly thereafter, the "We told you so! " stock.

Then, "the giant killer" and somewhat thereafter....."The New Big Australian" expected to list on the NASDAQ soon........

Sometime after this, Rob will start talking about the other 90% of that bloody big iceberg and then......

Between toasts and during our $100 a share party, AKIDA 6000 will announce that it has recently experienced singularity.......

and then...............

I classify myself as the most inpatient person you would find but I am making myself be very patient with Brainchip as in the coming years nothing but blue sky.

I think you are right. I think a lot of companies have invested in technology that only offers part of the solution they are seeking. With Akida they get the missing link, whatever that may be. They are adopting Akida but are reluctant to throw away the tech and marketing that they have spent mega dollars and time on.

And therein lies the beauty of AKIDA it can just slot in at the Edge. It can convert the customers existing networks from CNN to SNN and take advantage of everything AKIDA has to offer and save power and have real time learning on device.

As importantly the existing Chief Technical Officer does not have to explain to the CEO why to get the benefits of SNN technology they have to throw out the system costing $10 million 12 months ago to achieve these advantages like an early adopter competitor. It is a win, win for everyone and in fact handled the right way the Chief Technical Officer can take credit for reducing power etc; by recommending the addition of AKIDA.

The Brainchip team past and present have been very strategic in what they set out to achieve and are now able to market. They have blown up the normal resistance inherent in incumbency that stops the adoption of better technology solutions. Pure genius.

By the way in the first analyst report from Macquarie that was posted a few days ago they recognised a benefit inherent in the AKD1000 chip family. The extreme low heat generated by the AKIDA neural network has the side benefit of not destroying the chip as high heat generating old school technology chips can and as a result in Macquarie's words AKIDA chips will outlast the product in which they are installed. This might not be precisely correct however heat stress is a potential cause of failure particularly in military operations or harsh conditions think monitoring vibration on heavy rail in the Australian outback:

"Thermal overstress

Thermal overstress—excess heat—can cause semiconductors to fail. Excess heat melts materials, chars plastics, warps and breaks semiconductor dies, and causes other types of damage. In general, devices should not operate with a junction temperature above 125–150°C.

Military applications aim to limit junction temperature to 110°C. By applying the Arrhenius equation (see, “Models Predict Failure Rates”), you can show that reducing a device’s junction temperature from 160°C to 135°C cuts the failure rate in half. (For a further explanation of the equation and how to solve it, see “The Effect of Temperature on Failure Rate.”)

If high temperatures have caused a failure, notify the product’s designers. They must take into account product packaging and operating specs to ensure that fans, heat sinks, and other cooling devices keep temperatures within spec. Although high-power devices require heat sinks and fans, low-power devices can simply distribute heat into the surrounding air. Also, test engineers must ensure that heat sinks and fans remain in place during testing or that other heat-removal devices are available to sufficiently cool a device undergoing testing.

Test engineers may have to monitor the temperature of power semiconductors and power assemblies to ensure they do not operate the devices at unsafe temperatures—and thus reduce their useful life—during testing."

Had deep dive into their website including personnel and advertised positions and my view though I may be wrong is there is no one on staff with a background in the SNN technology. They mainly have a software background and a couple have worked extensively on compressing neural networks for use with Accelerators. Their device despite using the term programmable is limited to sound and any programming is done in advance based on the intended use. Not even in the extras on the AKIDA technology set.

Then there is the economics of building a chip for a single use v the cost of making an all-purpose chip - a manufacturing run of thousands v a run of millions.

Hi @Diogenese

I just have to tell the others that it is essential to go to the Brainchip SiFive thread and read your most recent post over there. Friends it is a beauty.

This sentence says it all. I will read it over and over again. Great stuff FF.
" It can convert the customers existing networks from CNN to SNN and take advantage of everything AKIDA has to offer and save power and have real time learning on device".

Published 45 mins ago. I wonder if Elon Musk and Herbert Diess also talked about Akida?

Since a Tesla car on 'Smart Summon' just crashed right into a 3 million dollar private jet, Elon might need some help to make his sensors a lot smarter in future.

Hi @Rocket577

Is this the one where he continues to ramble on about Brainchip is worth $1.50 a share. He is becoming a bit of a broken record.

I mean how believable is he when he does unpaid interviews in his own time about what an opportunity for investors Brainchip is. He is looking like just another excited member of the Brainchip fan club.

Despite his efforts at down ramping I still believe in my at least $2.75 by Christmas 2022.

FF ...... what if this upcoming 4C was to show an income amount of say ~$3million ..... Accordingly, imo your Christmas s/price prediction may eventuate a lot sooner than what you and all of us ever expected.

Herbert Diess (CEO Volkswagen) will be joining TC Sessions: Mobility 2022 May 18 and May 19, for an online portion of the event during which is going to talk about the company’s pursuits in EVs and autonomous vehicle technology, to his thoughts on the newer competitors like Tesla and how it has affected VW Group, to plans for the future.

Should be VERRRRRYYYY interesting listening to him talk about software and future technology.

That’s why he gets accolades from VW they both subscribe to the school of ‘if the numbers don’t add up change them to suit and hope they do by the time the public finds out’.

Techies think it is OK to sell phones that have faults while working on the problem and later send out a patch (with a pro-rata refund for the period you did not have the feature you paid for - sorry a late April fools joke) well Elon has carried that over to his EV’s. The only difference is your phone is unlikely to kill you while you are using it while their working on a patch.

PS: Could it be that the reason Rob Telson is so excited is that this is the first time in his long career that a chip he is selling actually does from point of purchase everything written on the box.

I said it yesterday and I’ll keep repeating it.

My opinion is that our involvement with Valeo which will be incorporated into Mercedes Benz will be our first significant income source.

Thanks TLS for posting this as it again shows Mercedes Drive Pilot. Just yesterday there was a video from Valeo showing how the Lidar is incorporated into the system. I’ve posted Valeo’s 5 year plan numerous times which is full of solid gold nuggets. Valeo make $20 billion a year and have an agreement with us. Our strength is Lidar. Mercedes is stating ”they’re offering this world-leading technology to our customers in Germany in the first half of 2022.”

The path to success has been laid out in front of us all, we just have to have the patients to let Brainchip do their thing and follow it!

It still hasn’t been formally confirmed but in my head it’s a done deal!

Peace!

Between Valeo and Nvidia who's doing what? Is BRN working with both. Merc recently made a statement they're implementing a complete new system in 2024 led by Nvidia using Akida posted by FF 3 days ago

 

[Diogenese]

Didn't he say an explosion in sales, not an explosion in revenue? But the revenue will follow, just not immediately . . .

... but will the sales nullify the NDAs?

 

[Diogenese]

The Great Depression was caused by trickle down economics. A very rich American pretty much bought himself the presidency and lowered taxes substantially for the rich. He wasn't in power when the GD hit but was the major cause. Every time this has been tried it has turned out badly. I think a big recession in the 70s was because of the same thing. So along comes the Don and does the same and Scotty from marketing thinks it is a great idea. The time that Bill Clinton actually raised taxes for the rich and only marginally I might add turned around the American economy. But apparently we don't learn from our mistakes.
