I am hopeful when a product is finally released, which I was expecting during their current event there was going to be some fanfare, bells and whistles. During the interview posted earlier today they discussed AIOT however they never mentioned Brainchip/Akida by name which was disappointing.
They just bought an AI company and already have some RZ products which I obviously work without Akida. Akida might be a better product but they are in business to make money and are going to be pushing their own products first as they likely get a better return on investment.
Further given Renesas just bought an AI company it likely sounded out Brainchip to recieve a flat ”We are not interested in seling” which suits me just fine.
My opinion based on that interview today is that even when we are included it is going to be on the down low. Does it matter?
Obviously the publicity would be great and further validation for Brainchip but at this stage it doesn’t look like that’s going to happen. Not sure how they are going to hide it in the block diagrams and descriptions, probably just with a fancy AI name (I’m sure FF could answer how that occurs in a legal sense but I’m sure if they pay enough it can happen).
Ultimately I’m hopeful the superior product will be recognised by consumers and become essential.
As Sean Hehir stated: watch the financials.
Based on todays interview the future looks awesome!
