Fact Finder
Top 20
My goodness I had no idea anyone kept these things.While we are all (very rightly) paying homage to Fact Finder, here is some stuff by FactFinder from his days on hotcrapper.
"In investing there are many things to consider. One is how you can be manipulated. The ‘illusory truth’ effect is very powerful. It works best when it used to convert our normal suspicion and anxiety to its own ends.
Something as innocuous as saying this company is a dud over and over or this company is going back to 38 cents can rob anyone of their reliance upon actual provable facts to make decisions.
The great advantage that AKIDA technology will bring once it achieves the second stage of its planned move to artificial general intelligence and is capable of prediction is that it will unlike us have the ability to ignore “illusory truth” and prevent our manipulation.
Once this occurs there will be a loss of employment opportunities for some but it will be one area where nobody will have any sympathy:

And, to save FF some time by answering the question "how do you handle the workload from posts on this forum?", on hot crapper he said
"I just read them. The ones with pictures are very annoying as you have to scroll the picture to see if there is something at the bottom of the page.
Again speed reading is a trained ability going back to prosecuting where it was not uncommon to have 200 plus charges in the list you were running each charge having a charge sheet to be checked, facts to be read, criminal antecedents to be considered and other miscellaneous documents. The working day started at 8 am and you needed to read these documents then speak to any police informant if there was a deficiency or you needed more information and be outside the court for 9.30am to speak to any lawyer appearing and get the assembled masses into some order so you could call in those who were unrepresented seeking adjournments after the lawyers had mentioned their matters before going on to the unrepresented pleas and bail applications.
I really understand what Peter van der Made talks about when he talks about key word spotting and pattern recognition. Volume systems work because of patterns. People laugh about standard things Police officers say and write. Well those standard things are patterns. Patterns made my ability to quickly read and pick up what was on a charge sheet - (we had an indictment book with a couple of hundred standard indictments I knew those off by heart as did most prosecutors but they were patterns). Fact sheets were in standard Police pattern speech. Antecedents were in a standard pattern. Even back then Adult Probation Service reports were in standard patterns. References that experienced lawyers would tender were in standard patterns because they knew what a busy court wanted to known about their client. Magistrates back then now judges in Local Courts had their own patterns. If you knew their patterns you could run the court more efficiently.
Familiar posters here on HC have patterns and key words. I have eliminated those who find being abusive or aggressive to other posters because they add nothing to my understanding of BRN.
As a lawyer at my peak I was handing 400 plus current matters. Most lawyers across my primary practice areas had 90 to 150 current matters. My clients never complained it was always about working out patterns and using key words and memory. I never wasted time which probably goes without saying.
There is no magic just a lifetime of practise. AKIDA style technology would have been very useful and could have doubled my output."
Fact Finder is truly an ornament to us all.
I was just looking at the other partners with Brainchip and Si and found the following which is a link to the Industrial Partners at Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse.
So many of their Industrial Partners are names we have been considering is it just a coincidence but even if it is @Yak52 will be rightly excited again because of the world wide spread of Brainchip and its AKIDA Technology solution is likely to reach complete saturation point over the next few months.
I encourage all to open this link and be as amazed as I am, as to how many companies this one environmental project using Brainchip's technological advantage has potentially reached.
The current CEO Sean Hehir announced that they were going to rapidly roll out into universities and research institutions and the companies in this link engaged with just one university in France confirms why this has been made a priority:

AIoT for biodiversity 
How to combine artificial intelligence (#IA) and the Internet of Things (#IoT) for the benefit of #biodiversité? This is the challenge we are tackling alongside two other companies and three French #recherche institutes, by starting an R&D project called Psi-Biom ("Platform #numérique of integrated services for the monitoring of biodiversity by connected objects and modeling").
One of psi-Biom's objectives is to design a technological chain called #AIoT ("Artificial intelligence of things", a combination of artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things) for the monitoring of animal species. It aims to combine the use of #capteurs arranged in nature, capable of collecting photographic and sound data on the presence of #animaux, and the use of AI for the analysis of this data, including the automatic identification of #espèces.
The #technologies developed as part of the Psi-Biom project will enable all actors involved in biodiversity management to better size their actions and monitor their real effectiveness over time. This concerns in particular local authorities, ecological engineering design offices, infrastructure managers, spatial planning operators, or managers of natural areas.
Our partners in this project are specialized in the design of communicating sensors (BrainChip, SiConsult ), #écologie (Functional Ecology and Environment Laboratory - LEFE), communication systems and data collection (IRIT (Institut de Recherche en Informatique de Toulouse) ), and artificial intelligence (Computer Science and Systems Laboratory - LIS).
