Pretty cool when AI jobs are not just looking for Python and Tensorflow, but also Experience with Brainchip Akida! Perhaps this is more common than I realize. Edge-AI (our partner) is helping on this likely.

Hi @Foxdog

I could say “all of the above” because these are all things that could be in someone’s plan.

But where I will start is with the why bother to have a plan.

We all are hopefully learning everyday from our life experience and in my Police career I had drummed into me the importance of operational planning to deal with emergency situations.

The reasoning behind this is very simple it is harder to think and easier to make mistakes in situations of stress.

So the best time to think and make decisions is during periods of calm when you can stand back and in your own time weigh all your options.

This idea carried over into my work as a prosecutor and then as a lawyer.

As a lawyer I quickly realised that when clients came to me looking for a solution to whatever their problem was it was incredibly rare for the client to actually have thought through what the solution would look like and where they would go once it was achieved.

Risk reward was a foreign concept which never entered their thinking.

For example in a simple personal injury case the risk you might think is clear you could loose.

This however is often not the greatest risk for the client the greatest risk is winning but not being awarded sufficient having regard to what it cost to win and then receiving a conservative assessment of their loss by the court leaving them with insufficient to achieve their goal.

Thus it can often be the case that taking an early offer of settlement for what seems to be a modest amount can best satisfy their goal.

What I discovered however was that the majority of my clients were so stressed at and during settlement negotiations they could not think properly about the risk reward even when laid out in front of them in black and white at the time an offer was made and being discussed.

It was apparent that I needed to educate the client from the moment they walked into my office about the need to have a plan should an offer of settlement be made to them. It is mostly the case that settlement offers have a time limit on acceptance often as tight as until close of business on the day of offer.

I see this as entirely analogous to buying shares in the hope they will appreciate in value.

At any point an announcement like the Mercedes Benz reveal can come out of left field and things go crazy and you have a very limited amount of time to make decisions under severe stress.

Someone who had a plan as simple as I will sell all my holding when it hits $2.00 and pay off my mortgage early and I am happy to wait five years would have been greatly advantages by putting that plan into immediate effect.

The person without a plan would likely have missed the opportunity by the time they decided what to do the opportunity would have been lost.

In fact I am sure like me you have read posts by some here saying ‘I wish I had …. when the price hit $2.34.’

Plans do not need to be complicated or clever.

All they need to be is made before the event.

The clever part is having a plan and executing it.

Buying 50,000 shares for your child’s long term financial future is a plan. But how simple and uncomplicated is such a plan.

Having a target value that will net you an amount to pay off your mortgage 30 years ahead of schedule is a plan.

Again very simple but nonetheless paying off your mortgage is life changing for most people. I know it was for my wife and I.

My personal situation and plan is peculiar to me and has no application to anyone else so has no value.

I am strange in this regard and have lots of factors in play that definitely are peculiar to me.

Suffice to say my plan is to create generational wealth. The first part of my plan involves trading to average down to increase my overall share portfolio. The second part is to continuously control risk by researching and reading everything I can about the companies I hold. I am not a set and forget investor.

Mercedes-Benz Usa, Disney Advertising & Merkley+Partners Collaborate With The Famous Group For First-Ever College Football Mixed Reality Activation During Upcoming Telecast Of The College Football Playoff Semifinal At The Chick-Fil-A Peach Bowl​

December 29, 2022




Together, Mercedes-Benz USA, ESPN, The College Football Playoff, The Peach Bowl, Disney Advertising, and Merkley+Partners have collaborated with fan experience company, The Famous Group, to develop an unforgettable experience for fans during the College Football Playoff (CFP) Semifinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl on Dec. 31 (8 p.m. ET, ESPN).

As part of the luxury automaker’s broader investment in electric vehicle technology, the companies have teamed up to create a mixed reality activation, leveraging cutting-edge technology to race four of the iconic brand’s electric vehicles around Mercedes-Benz Stadium for a spectacle, both on-air and on-site. This collaboration marks the first time that mixed reality technology has been used on a live broadcast during a college football game and is the latest in a string of innovations for the luxury mobility brand.
“We at Mercedes-Benz USA, with the support of strategic AOR Merkley+Partners, are leading the global evolution of electric luxury,” said Monique Harrison, Head of Marketing, Mercedes-Benz USA. “Reintroducing this iconic brand through authentic brand experiences to a new generation of consumer that previously had little or no affinity with the automotive industry. Collaborations with music, film and technology brands like Disney are part of our journey to become the world’s most desirable electric luxury brand.”
In the CFP Semifinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, the exhibition will take place right before kickoff of the second half of the game, directly following the Mercedes-Benz Halftime report. Featuring four different Mercedes-Benz electric vehicles, the 45-second segment will push interaction with the physical environment further than before with the goal posts, field and iconic in-stadium Halo video board.
“We are thrilled to showcase the collective creativity and innovation amongst all the teams we work with,” said Theresa Palmieri, VP, Sports Brand Solutions, Disney Advertising. “We are constantly looking for opportunities to reimagine the advertising experience for brands and we are especially excited to unveil such an innovative execution in collaboration with Mercedes-Benz during a marquee event during the college football postseason.”
Using first-of-its-kind mixed reality production techniques, The Famous Group will operate three tracked cameras for the activation, including two fixed cameras and a SkyCam for the duration of the segment.

“Our Mixed Reality team has created some of the most impactful activations for leagues, teams, and brands across the industry,” says Andrew Isaacson, Partner at The Famous Group. “We’re thrilled to help bring this innovative technology to a live college football broadcast for the first time. This campaign will showcase an iconic brand while also providing fans with a unique and immersive experience.”
This campaign comes on the heels of The Famous Group’s mixed reality activation with Gillette during ESPN’s Monday Night Football game between the NFL’s Chicago Bears and New England Patriots in October, which saw a 69 percent increase in brand recall compared to advertisements on competitive broadcasts.

Hi @stuart888

You are on a roll today so I thought to emphasis the importance of the above post I would throw in the following statement taken from a larger interview with Mike Davies contained in the enclosed link:

“So that being said, we’re not at the final version. This process (Intel 4) is still in development, so we aren't really seeing products. Loihi 2 is a research chip, so there's a different standard of quality and reliability and all these factors that go into releasing products. But it certainly means that the process is healthy enough that we can deploy chips and put them on subsystem boards, and remotely access them, measure their performance, and make them available for people to use. My team has been using these for quite some time, and now we're just flipping the switch and saying our external users can start to use them. But we have a ways to go, and we have more versions of Loihi 2 in the lab - it's an iterative process, and it continues even with this release.”

The key takeaways about Loihi 2

1. Loihi 2 is a research chip with a different standard of quality and reliability - (in other words not fit for commercialisation)

2. Loihi 2 has a ‘way to go’ and may not be the final iteration.

Morning FF,

I think the only reason they mention Loihi alongside Brainchip in the job ad is not many people out there have Brainchip experience due to us being so new, so if you have Loihi experience then great we will get you onboard to work with Akida

One "plan" which can benefit peace of mind is to have a multiplier, say "X" (eg 4, or whatever your risk-tolerance allows) in mind at which you can sell enough shares to recoup your invested capital and free ride with the rest. This can be particularly useful for those of a nervous disposition.

[Kachoo]

Happy New Year all hope you all had a great hholidaysome rest and fun.

I have been reading up on posts and I see some excitement comming back and people are calling numbers and game plans.

I will just say everyone's plan on wealth profits and life goals vary. Some here likely have lots some or little.

What binds most is the Akida chip or product that is in its infancy of commercializanting.

With that in mind I think many hear will sell out way to early when you see paper profits that is my opinion. But if your goals with this trade or investment have met your goals dreams and desires then you have aplccomplished yoir goal congrats.

Life changing does not need to be millions it is unique to every individual.

I don't know if you are aware or even comprehend that for Anil and Peter 1 penny move in stock price is worth well over a million dollars think of that and see how grounded they are still working away trying to get their dream out there.

I would bet that many hear would have walked away with that wealth never looking back my self included. Why is that because we are short sited and not driven as some individuals only looking at our own needs. I'm not not going to bag people for the easy out 100 million I can hold enjoy life sleep in lot a would take this but that's cause we are not these particular individuals that look at success not monetarily valued but through what is accomplished hence they are rewarded based on what they provided society.

I have through the years reflected on myself how to better my worth services what I offer weather it's work or a product or service and I'm trying to focus on other projects and works and not just focus on one plan or action. When I will sell brn depends on what the money is needed for and how much will depend on my project. But I do know we are just entering the early stages of AI so the world growth figures are huge in this market space so I need to keep that in mine to try to also give my kids a better start in life.

So sell point are relative to every individual and there personal needs.

Thanks Superstar Fact Finder. I am glad you point this detail out for the newbies. The history of the ongoing Brainchip win, now partnership with Intel is amazing. It is fabulous news for us.

We have to communicate to new people to the BRN forum of excellence. I often try to write for the new person to this Brainchip explosion.

First time I've heard about BattleViz. Article dated December 2022.

Remember that Mercedes-Benz partnered with game engine developer Unity to upgrade its navigation system to the new MB.OS to support 3D navigation. Telefónica also partnered with the likes of Meta, Niantic Labs (the creator of Pokémon Go), as well as UNITY on XR devices, XR engines and XR experiences.

Make sure your kids get the white balloons if @Fact Finder is at the party.

Well wasn't really thinking of death rays and lasers at this point Dio and FF, was thinking along the lines of using simple Akida powered sensors to detect the presence of varroa mite in a hive.

There is a serious co-ordinated Gov't effort underway right now to prevent the spread of the varroa in the Australian apiary industry, Dio you actually mentioned "pollinators" in a recent post which led to my line of thought.

Without the pollination activities of our bee friends, Australia's agriculture industry would be seriously damaged. Major varroa invasions are affectting agriculture globally, Oz is one of the last places on earth in which the varroa hasn't yet had a serious impact on the local apiary industry.

Simple Akida powered sensors could placed upon hive entrances to detect presence of the mite, presently the efforts to control the spread of the mite, are made more difficult because all hives have to be physically inspected on a regular basis in infected/affected areas.

A simple solution to make control much more effective.

Just had a thought. Clearly it could identify the Varroa mite that would be easier than weeds.

I think as it’s just one object and they could provide many samples for training due to all the scientific study it would be dead easy.

My thought, bearing in mind it is a long time since I was interested in laser technology, is that you can tune lasers to act only on a particular colour.

One experiment I recall was exploding a red balloon inside a white balloon leaving the white balloon undamaged.

All we therefore need is to identify a necessary internal organ of the mite which has a colour not in common with the bee and ‘Death Ray Heaven Bee Hives’ is born.
