BRN Discussion Ongoing

[BrainShit]

Exactly and the circus clowns keeps making new products (Pico, TENNS, Akida pt 1,2,3, sun glasses) but no one wants to buy it!? Wtf is even that kind of way to do things

You forgot the 6 x Edge Boxes and the 13 x M.2 Cards. Some invisible smart bins and never seen cybersecurity protection ...

 

[buena suerte :-)]

I wonder whether with Trumps US centric plans, BrainChip needs to become a US company to get US contracts (especially sensitive government ones)

I was thinking exactly the same @JoMo68 Maybe get some of those Ai handouts $$$$$$$$$$

But also just want this transition ( if voted for) is going to be as quoted !!

"and ensure that existing shareholders continue to hold securities listed on the US exchange, equivalent in value to their existing ASX listed stock (BRN)".

I personally think a NASDAQ (Or other) listing is the way forward for BRN and will bring more future wealth to us shareholders as the US will bring so much more exposure and mix it up with 'The Big boys of the world'! The ASX will always keep us heavily restricted IMO!

(As long as we don't lose out with the consolidation!!)


Oh well we will have to wait this out and see what eventuates!!!!

Good luck to us all ....

 

[Bravo]

Not on my PC ATM and can’t drive my i-Pad very well. ​

Could we be involved in the new Arm Cortex-A320???​

Check out the Arm blog - the link at the bottom of the post. It reads like does everything Pico can do???​

The Ethos-U85 driver has now been updated so that Ethos-U85 can be driven directly by a Cortex-A320, without the need for a Cortex-M based ML island. This update improves latency and allows Arm partners to remove the cost and complexity of using a Cortex-M to drive the NPU.

Arm to support more intelligent applications at the edge with Armv9 Edge AI Platform​

BY MIKE WHEATLEY

FEBRUARY 26 2025

Chipmaker Arm Holdings Plc is looking to strengthen its grip on artificial intelligence at the network edge with the debut of a powerful new lightweight processor designed to sit at the heart of intelligent internet of things applications.



????

The company unveiled the Arm Cortex-A320 central processing unit today, saying it’s the centerpiece of its all-new Armv9 Edge AI Platform, which provides all of the hardware needed to run lightweight AI workloads independently of the cloud.


???

In its pitch, Arm says the increasingly connected world we live in means that we cannot just rely on the cloud to continue processing AI workloads anymore. Use cases such as smart cities and industrial automation demand that AI applications live at the edge, and there’s an urgent need for them to process data locally to eliminate latency, but to do that we need to have the right infrastructure to run them, the company says.
That’s what it’s providing with the Armv9 Edge AI Platform, which combines the Cortex-A320 CPU with a new AI accelerator chip, the Arm Ethos-U85 neural processing unit, to run powerful AI models with up to 1 billion parameters locally on any device.
Arm said the edge platform is equipped to handle workloads such as autonomous vehicles that can navigate busy factory floors, smart cameras that must be able to process what they’re seeing, drones that carry out autonomous operations, and human-machine interfaces that drive natural, conversational interactions.
The Cortex-A320 is based on the company’s most advanced CPU architecture, Armv9, and delivers key features such as SVE2 for enhanced machine learning performance of up to 10 times its predecessor edge CPU, the Cortex-A35. It also benefits from improved security, with new capabilities such as Pointer Authentication, Branch Target Identification and Memory Tagging Extension, which enable edge devices to handle sensitive data in the most exposed locations, the company said. At the same time, Armv9 provides greater efficiency, meaning lower running costs for edge AI workloads.

Arm KleidiAI comes to the network edge​

It’s one thing to provide the infrastructure for edge AI applications, and another thing to build them, but Arm has this covered too. Alongside the Armv9 Edge AI Platform, it’s also extending its Arm KleidiAI software development platform to the edge. It provides a powerful set of compute libraries to support the development of AI frameworks that can optimize AI and machine learning workloads to run on the new Armv9 Edge AI Platform, the company said.
KleidiAI is a popular platform that has already been widely integrated into IoT AI software frameworks such as Llama.cpp and ExecuTorch to accelerate the performance of lightweight large language models such as Meta Platform’s Llama 3 and Microsoft Corp.’s Phi-3. According to Arm, KleidiAI can help to boost the performance of the new Cortex-A320 CPUs by up to 70% in some scenarios.
By using KleidiAI, developers can also accelerate the time-to-market for new edge AI applications, meaning they can quickly build new solutions that grow and adapt as their requirements evolve.
The launch of the Armv9 Edge AI Platform has been warmly welcomed by customers including Amazon Web Services Inc. and the edge server manufacturer Eurotech S.p.A. For instance, AWS has already integrated the hardware into the nucleus lite runtime environment within its AWS IoT Greengrass platform for edge devices.
“This seamless integration between the two technologies provides an optimized solution for developers to build modern edge AI applications, like anomaly detection in precision agriculture, smart manufacturing and autonomous vehicles,” said AWS Vice President of IoT Yasser Alsaied.
Meanwhile, Eurotech has been quick to install Arm’s new hardware at the foundation of its latest edge computing hardware.
“Arm’s new edge AI platform provides us with the foundation to build the next generation of rich IoT devices, with Armv9 giving us access to new levels of secure performance, energy-efficiency and software flexibility,” said Eurotech Chief Technology Officer Marco Carrer.

Well, it's stopped everyone talking about the crap results and the capital call!! This investment has really postponed my early retirement indefinitely!! I'm starting to dislike Brainchip!!

Good luck to us all ....

The real AI/statistical/machine learning careers are abroad. Makes sense to move where it is and will be happening moving forward. Unfortunately, the IP is not a new energy efficient mining shovel......... Edge AI, never heard of it.

That ship sailed, old bean. It's all or nothing now!!

 

[Learning]

This a brutal, we all just lost 50% of value of our BRN investment within this week.

Learning

 

[CWP]

Is there any US law in place to stop the BOD issuing say 50%+ more SOI (in the new company) to US sophs ? This would be the cheapest way for another party to effectively own half the company’s IP for a minuscule value. The whole thing is fraught with risk to LTH.

 

[GingerRogers]

Nice announcenent to concider by the way... I see more advantages than disadvantages. But like to see a big IP deal much more...

If they need to meet a $4 /share requirement, I believe me, like many others here, will be left with very few shares in the company relative to now. Great move for the company, very bad move for me, and for many here, I suspect.

 

[Mea culpa]

The old saying goes if you don’t like it stop doing it and move on to something you do like.

Reminds me of an old girlfriend, but I'm sticking with the one I've had for the past seven years, even though I'm in a bit of a quandary with her at the moment.

if they do this everone still has the same size piece of the pie. Whether i have 200 shares that equals half or 4 shares that equal half who cares. It is if they do a capital raise at low prices that existing holders are not participating in that could be the problem. i want them to take on a large partner as an investor also that would be ideal if nvidia entered the top 20 for example.

Please don't tell me you are buying some more, old chap?

 

[spookymulder]

IMO This is very good news for the long sighted but not so good for the short sighted. Onwards and upwards BRN. Being listed in the right place at the right time is half of the battle.

Perhaps also think of it as it could reach $4 without the split. We are talking months and months and months away. Remember when Mercedes announced their involvement with Akida this took less then a couple weeks to get past $2.

Call me crazy, and definitely take my advice with a grain of salt, as those who have been reading my contributions over the last 4 years or longer on both forums would know that I er on the risky side and am a little less influenced with volatility than most here....but.... I plan on buying a shit load more if this drops lower, especially if we are moving to the US....

What ever happen, happened or will happen with the shareprice…. We are just a plaything of the situation… and as I can see , the downrampers swapped over from crapper… STFU

Thanks for sharing Hop.

Although I don't have time to analyze this just yet, 'Linping Fu' is a newcomer that has blasted into 11th position.
This could be a soph or retail investor as it is a Chinese name and Chinese companies rarely use names for their businesses.

Ive not had time to check it too much either against the other but will on weekend. Looked up me Linping Fu and looks like he was a major shareholder in EFE some time back but still doing some checks as that's a significant entry level holding!
