BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Neesie71]

G'day @Neesie71. You need to take everything shareman says with a grain of salt. He doesn't have any technical knowledge compared to the regular posters that we have over here and generally doesn't read any of the content that he posts.

Motiv look like they're years behind us and even if they catch up they'll be leagues behind us in terms of performance with their Altai processor.

I put a couple of links and screenshots below. If you follow the hyperlink at the bottom of the first article to the Motiv website you can see that they're only at the prototype stage. The Altai processor also only has 131 thousand neurons compared to Akida which has 1.2 million neurons. And it performs at 0.5W compared to Akida which runs in the micro to milli watt range.

The second article confirms that it's inferior to TrueNorth and we know from the benchmarking in all of Anil's presentations that TrueNorth is inferior to Akida.

Well there goes another day of no work. I have literally spent the whole day yelling at my phone or talking on the phone with my mum (who holds double what i do) with squeals of delight. I have a bottle of Grand Vintage Moet & Chandon chilling in the fridge that was given to me for my 50th last year... Let's see how this day finishes up. One thing that is a certainty for me though... it will definitely end in bubbles..

She put me on to HC and I've loved all the wonderful information that yourself and others have posted and had a laugh at all the obvious misinformation of the professional downrampers. My mum and I are firm BRN believes and have large steaks in it. I wear the shirts (I have two haha) .. I walk the walk and talk the talk to the point of eyerolling from those around me. This company literally has the power to change the world as we know it. We are all standing on the cusp of history and I'm proud to be a part of it. I would like to wish all Brainchip holders a very MERRY CHRISTMAS and it's a no brainer (no pun intended) to say it's going to be a very HAPPY NEW YEAR for us all... Neesie x

That is it, first confirmed Renesas product. Thanks @uiux for the confirmation and @Makeme 2020 for finding this. Fantastic and probably not the only product they will release with Akida inside, but break open the champagne - we’ve been waiting a while

What makes you think it's confirmation jtardif?

The ultralow power used for keyword spotting?

That's what stood out to me and the fact that Uiux tried to push the idea in a few posts, despite not wanting to spoon feed us and elaborate at all about his reasons (and I suspect there may be a reason for that..).

I'm really surprised, that there has been no large reaction to this news, if the DA1470x, does indeed include AKIDA IP, as this would be the first available commercial product we know of?

Is everybody numbed, by all the leads and dots?

Grandmother's remedy:

Rum and lemon juice -

Go easy on the lemon juice.

As I am on a blood thinner until stents are absorbed it’s no alcohol but end of July they finish so I will be able to pursue this cure to prevent a recurrence.

And to think I have wasted all these years seeing doctors when what I needed was an engineer. FF

Fair play, but nothing stopping a person from picking a name out of the hat and I just say it as it see it, knowing well that everyone wants to say the same but can’t, but then again I’ve always been the one that gets into trouble for speaking out

So definitely Dry July for you then! :-(

I would also like to acknowledge the contribution and spirit in which TSE forum is conducted ... it helps ensure that we all focus on the company and it's accomplishments rather than the daily SP gyrations.
If I allow myself the luxury of projecting forward a couple of years, I expect the daily gyrations will be more in the vicinity of .50c a day ( representing 2% or some such value ), half of the current company Market Cap. If many of the LTH's here have managed to hold onto their shares, this will be serious personal $ movement on a daily basis. You will need to have a psychological strategy in place to hold your nerves!!
And this forum will be a large part of that strategy for me .... maintain focus on our tech, our customers, and not the market shenanigans.

IMO. GLTAH

Absolutely agree Quiltman.

I already have accustomed myself from my first intial $1000 buy in Brainchip in 2019 and the 'volatility' in everyday trading from there to a position in which I have accumulated many more shares and large swings in the price and my portfolio value in general.

Psychologically I am not bothered about the price going down which may sound strange. I know the forces at work doing this and I just see it as an opportunity to accumulate more. Brainchip is one of the very few companies I have held in which I haven't really found a flaw fundamentally which it comes to management and leadership, explosive potential, at the cusp of commercialisation, competitor risk (since the Renenas IP contract) and many other aspects I find important for an investment.

What I worry about and need to check is my greed. I have controlled it very well so far and sold a tiny amount only at the large $1's in the last spike to just know I took an opportunity more than anything. I like many here saw it come right down to these prices and felt regret a bit. But it is not really regret. It is my greed and I am being as diligent as I can because I know my time horizon is at least half a decade.

But seeing a large jump at 10% of your investment go up in a day and thinking I can just take that profit now and be happy is so tempting. But I don't. I cannot imagine 50 cent swings. It will be insane. I want to see that and still not bow down to temptation. Grow those balls! There are retail holders who held companies like BHP for decades and have never sold. Dividends is the dream. Hope is real. I wish I could get that wand thing in Men in Black, forget about my Brainchip investment and get all those memories again after 5 years (with password access to my trading account of course as well!)

Anyway, I think it is important for us to reflect on our psychological state when investing.

Very true

Thank you for taking time FF to reply. I have tried to encourage mum to use this forum but she is 75 and set in her ways so I try to read in here to let her in on the good stuff. Right now reading about her investments keeps her mind active and distracts her from her situation. She loves share trading with a passion and it puts a sparkle in her eyes. We're all devoting or time to her but she always likes to keep reading and staying in the loop. I can honestly say it's probably kept her alive way longer than she should have. She respects you highly and from the bottom of my heart I appreciate what you all have to offer. Mum has been my mentor and my rock so I will continue to read in here and do my own research to carry on my mum's legacy and her love of Brainchip which she discovered herself over a decade ago. From my mum to you all Thank you and Akida Ballista x

Hi @Neesie71
Well give your mum our best and tell her that we all feel so much more in control and relaxed here rather than on HC and you would never know reading here that the world was in turmoil.

I will personally never post there again.

NVISO webinar was fantastic last night.

If Tim is on this forum, well done!

NVISO are looking to be a small company set to achieve great things in lieu of their early adoption of akida.

Just adding to what you said @SERA2g the demo's were the best I have seen to date!

Hi DB,

I wish it were the case but no one has pointed out how Akida nodes are on the SOC hence the non-celebration.

I posted some diagrams up on the Renesas thread but there’s no mention off SNN or Brainchip anywhere in schematics or documentation.

The only other Arm M33 coming out (that I’m aware of) is from NXP. They’re doing a release. They already use the Arm M33 so I’m hoping they’ve adopted Akida via Renesas to go in their new product. To be linked with NXP would be awesome!

Happy Days.

Nice looking wheels there Fb, keep up the polishing. Do like the mustangs a bit, my sister had one for a while, it was costly to maintain, so she sold it for an earner over the 3-4 years she owned it, ended up in Queensland somewhere. Myself, I prefer some of the older restorative types. Have an Rover P5 coupe, ( needs some attention though ), anyone interested ? Also, an Range Rover LSE, ( needs attention also ) but still a fine vehicle, anyone interested ?

Am driving a Jeep currently, Grand Cherokee, which has been a marvelous towing vehicle, been round Aus a couple of times dragging 3.5 tonnes, has done 120,000 km now, and has never failed. Who knows, how long before Akida will emerge into many vehicles pretty soon ( hopefully ), fingers crossed heh.

Let's hope that there will be an uplift in the S/P before too long, for BRN, it deserves something to happen, what a stock to hold, for the future. Just wondering whether to splurge a little more at these prices. Seems quite cheap atm, considering the potential on offer.

Good luck with your trading/investing Fb.


Akida Ballista


hotty...

Hello hotty4040.

great to hear about the Grand Cherokee being so good and reliable!

A bit off topic but could not help myself!

I have one also a Grand Cherokee (Jet) limited edition model with 210,000 klms and its the same, reliable ,strong and goes fast when required!
(topped 240kph + on a runway, low profile tyres @ 65psi)

Only issue has been the Alternator (third party) replaced by Chrysler and fuel pump (current recall & waiting 1 yr so far!)
The Dealers/service centres are the ONLY problem owning a Jeep as terrible service in Oz etc. Suspect same for other Brands also.

Looking to replace V6 with a EV setup when it wears out or unleaded becomes unavailable anymore. Car is like new still. lol

Oh and yes to the "other" haters of Jeeps,...... THE only Jeep I have ever seen on a tow truck was MINE when the Denso Alternator shorted out !

"Integration of 3rd party IPs" (and plural)
What could that mean?

Akida 1000 does include an ARM Cortex processor.

 

[M_C]

What about the lower part that is covered up? Down below the Qualcomm to Synopsys row. Don't be shy, maybe Telsa down below plus more! I respect your focus and detail.
You are an asset to all of us. Thank you MC. Very impressive.

Thanks mate! Just because you asked so nicely.............................

Revisiting the CEO Sean Hehir’s presentation to the 2022 AGM:

“When I started to evaluate joining BrainChip I started with the technology.

Being a Silicon Valley based executive I had easy access to some of the world’s best technical minds who I engaged to evaluate the core technology.

The overwhelming feedback was the technology is visionary in its design, unparalleled in flexibility, and transformative in performance.

As the engagement progressed, I met with many of the core team members and concluded that I had never met a more talented, dedicated, and focused group of individuals in all my years in the technology business.

I examined the trends which are undeniably compelling, the growth and disruptive nature of AI plus the decentralization of AI.

Furthermore, I started to examine the quality of the engagements with some of the world’s leading brands and the trust/promise they saw in BrainChip which further encouraged me to join this amazing company.

And lastly, with all the skills and talent the organization had, it was clear the experience and skills I possessed perfectly complimented the team and is exactly what BrainChip needed in a CEO; someone who knew how to fully commercialize technology…..

Where we are going

The Market is moving to the edge, and we are already here.

I spoke earlier about a 3 three-legged stool that highlighted research, product, and now commercialization, but as stated earlier the floor that the stool sits on is the market.

That market is large, fast growing, and requires more intelligence at the edge.

Today's data center AI model is power hungry, bandwidth wasting, lacks flexibility, not very intelligent and not suited for these undeniable technology trends toward distributed intelligence and learning at the edge.

As I get ready to close my prepared remarks, let’s go back to the foundation.

Two visionaries and the others that followed, worked diligently to create our world changing technology.

Unapparelled in its flexibility, scalability, performance that’s been technically vetted by prospects, customer, and analysts.

And with all my comments about commercialization, I want to assure you there is equal focus, energy, and resources to not only maintain our competitive advantage created by those visionaries but extend it.

We are:
• Aggressively sourcing and hiring world class tech talent.
• Filing new patents.
• Working diligently on documentation, look/feel, UI to make our technology
easier to consume.
• Paying close attention to our competitors.
• Refining, expanding, and accelerating our roadmap and see opportunities
beyond the edge.

For the short term, you can expect another major release of next generation IP and another reference chip prior to the next AGM.

Lastly before I turn the meeting back over to Antonio, let me briefly recap.

It’s been nearly a half year of building a commercial engine that is just now starting to reveal its possibility.

Key priorities and initiatives include:
• Structuring Commercialization.
• Understanding our Market Ecosystem.
• Clarifying our Business Model.
• Ensuring Product-Market Fit.
• Focusing on Marketing.
• Expanding Sales.

Our work on the commercialization leg of the stool has made substantial progress but it is a journey of continuing improvement.

But when you couple this commercial engine with our differentiated IP product, delivering proven and an exponential improvement on anything else available, plus a market which is moving to the edge, I am highly confident that the commercial results will come in a steady and sustainable fashion.

Even with all this hard work on commercialization in the last 5 months, the company and myself should be judged not on effort, but results.

With that said, I look forward to standing before you next year to share all the progress and results from this next critical chapter of BrainChip’s commercialization.”

So we are now 11 months and counting until the CEO stands before shareholders ready to be judged on his progress and results.

I have never anticipated an AGM more than the Brainchip 2023 AGM.

My opinion only DYOR
FF

Sean H ......... I'm now waiting for the next Co Announcement confirming an IP agreement with a big fish or the 2023 AGM ... which ever comes first.

DB why not email Brainchip and ask for clarification on the subject? DA1470x has AKIDA ?
State that you are a Shareholder.

they can only answer with
1. No AKIDA is not on the DA1470x
2. NO Comment (means a yes, not officially)
3. Yes it is on the DA1470x

Remember they cannot lie/mislead to a shareholder for fear of it coming back and biting in the future!

Hi guys .. I haven't really posted in this forum yet but used to from time in HC. My mum and I are long term holders of about 10 years. My mum has been trading for about 25. She is very ill and really doesn't have a long time left with us and she rang me at 5am from hospital this morning because she read a post that sharman from HC (forgive me for even saying his name of loud here) posted this morning that really concerned her. I said I would ask the 1000 eyes about it and to get opinions to ease her thoughts. I've copied a link he put up that has her worried.. you're thoughts would be truly appreciated.

Kaspersky invests in development of neuromorphic processors to be used in next-gen smart devices

Kaspersky has become a shareholder of Motive Neuromorphic Technologies, a company specializing in neuromorphic computing technologies, with a 15% stake. The organizations’ joint development efforts are aimed at creating new opportunities for machine learning-based solutions: self-learning...

It is Shareman's job to spread half-truths and fear.

looks like they are a Russian company:

I know they won't confirm something, that isn't already in the public domain Yak..

It doesn't mean it's a yes though..
