BRN Discussion Ongoing

Right approach. But look at the history of Tesla. Tesla was the most shorted stock on nasdaq before it explode. The prices goes from $150 to $2400 before settling around $600.
So a shorter is a big trouble as well as a big opportunity.

That's like saying that hitting yourself in the head with a hammer is a positive thing because it feels so good when you stop.

I was in the "top 100 out of 40,000 odd" shareholders until last Tuesday, when I had to sell 500,000 shares to fund something else, but still own north of a million shares (now free-carried).

One thing I did find fishy about the sell/buy transaction was that prior to pressing the sell button, I checked the market depth and individual buy bids and there weren't any huge orders there waiting, but to my surprise someone out of nowhere bought the whole 500,000 in one trade @ 46c, (not multiple buys for the total amount of shares). can someone please explain how this can happen, it all happened in a blink of an eye with the "sell order placed and sell order filled" emails arriving within a couple of seconds of the order being place, Hmmmmmmm????

It's not a level playing field.
Big fish can see us but remain hidden themselves.
Sorry to hear if you had to sell in unfavourable conditions.
It sucks when that happens, but congrats on a mill free carried.
That is some achievement.

 

[Labsy]

That which happened to you is common because of the ASX allowing bots direct access. There is no doubt they can hold orders back and execute in real time.
My son and I on two thinly traded shares had exactly the same thing occur yesterday. In both cases there were good reasons for someone to be accumulating.

Here we have shorts as potential buyers and institutions accumulating. Take your pick.

Also, in taking such a large order instantly off the list it maintains their ability to control the sp with their smaller trades..

 

[Vladsblood]

Nvidia peaked at $6.06 intraday in January, 2002 a few years after their IPO & then bottomed at 61c in October 2002 = 90% decline.

Today, Nvidia SP is $271.91 or up x445 since the October 2002 bottom. Reached $346.47 SP in November 2021 equating to x568 upside.

Imagine the fear in market during dotcom bust when Nvidia SP declined to 61c in 2002. Buyers had up to x568 upside in 19 years.

Poor market sentiment due to high CPI/high rates in 2022/23 has created a similar buying opportunity now for BRN.

Thanks for this clarity Steve10: a really great post. Vlad.

Wow ... staggering figures!! thanks Steve

The beauty of knowing that manipulation is taking place (other than my portfolio dropping) is that we can see and know it is occuring, taking this onboard I for one know better to hold until something factual comes out ( and when it does it'll be positive)

I would honestly rather this stupidity from the Idiots shorting it, rather than going down because it is not a good investment...
and true investors are pulling out.

I will continue to hold and accumulate until the company shows me otherwise regardless long-term, this dip is going to be short lived on the overall life of BRN.

There will be a day the panic shorters will have to buy back and investors with much larger wallets buy in...the big fish are waiting for something substantial...IMO

ARM adds custom instructions to M85 controller in RISC-V AI fightback​

Technology News | March 13, 2023
By Nick Flaherty
RISC-V IOT AIMPUS/MCUS

---

ARM has developed a new version of its high end Cortex-M85 microcontroller, allowing chip designers to add custom instructions for AI applications.​

This has been one of the key advantages of the competing RISC-V instruction set and signals a fight back by ARM ahead of the Embedded World (EW2023) exhibition in Nuremberg, Germany, this week.


Renesas Electronics will be showing the first live demonstrations of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) implementations on the previous generation M85 design.

This first demonstration showcases a people detection application developed in collaboration with UK ML startup Plumerai that identifies and tracks persons in the camera frame in varying lighting and environmental conditions.

• Renesas shows first ARM M85 silicon
• ARM battles RISC-V at Renesas

The second demo showcases a motor control predictive maintenance use case with an AI-based unbalanced load detection application using Tensorflow Lite for Microcontrollers with CMSIS-NN.


The latest version of the M85 core, Cortex-M85 r1, includes ARM Custom Instructions (ACI) which allow designers to include custom defined data processing instructions directly on the controller. These were first proposed in 2019 in the ARMv8.1 architecture but are only now being implemented in designs, in part to address the increasing popularity of cores based on the customisable RISC-V instruction set.

• ARM enables custom instructions on Cortex-M
• Segger supports Renesas for ARM Cortex-M85

“With ACI on Cortex-M85, the user does not have to turn to alternative architectures to implement a desired instruction encoding. Instead, this can now be done on CPUs that are based on the ARM architecture, with Cortex-M85 being the first high-performing microcontroller to provide this option.,” said ARM. “Through ACI, the user is given the power to innovate within the proven AEM architecture, while maintaining the ecosystem advantages of the Cortex-M CPUs.”

ACI is suitable for applications using specialized bit field processing, trigonometric functions, and image pixel manipulations and can also be applied to accelerate frequently used data processing functions. It is also being implemented on the Cortecx-M55 core.

AI demonstrations​

In the meantime, Renesas is taking advantage of the Helium technology in the core which will be part of the RA (Renesas Advanced) family of MCUs.

Helium is ARM’s M-Profile Vector Extension, available as part of the Armv8.1M architecture and provides a boost for machine learning (ML) and digital signal processing (DSP) applications, accelerating applications such as endpoint AI.

“We’re proud to again lead the industry in implementing the powerful new Arm Cortex-M85 processor with Helium technology,” said Roger Wendelken, Senior Vice President in Renesas’ IoT and Infrastructure Business Unit.

“By showcasing the performance of AI on the new processor, we are highlighting technical advantages of the new platform and at the same time demonstrating Renesas’ strengths in providing solutions for emerging applications with our innovative ecosystem partners.”

• Plumerai boosts embedded AI efficiency
• Plumerai develops embedded AI accelerator IP core

“We’re excited to take part in this ground-breaking demonstration,” said Roeland Nusselder, CEO of Plumerai. “ARM’s Helium technology supported on the new RA MCUs with the Cortex-M85 core significantly accelerates the Plumerai inference engine.”

“This performance uplift will enable our customers to use larger and more accurate versions of Plumerai’s People Detection AI, add additional product features, and extend battery life,” he said. ”Our customers have an insatiable appetite for adding new and more accurate AI features that run on a microcontroller. Together with Renesas, we are the first to fulfil this demand.”

The Cortex-M85 core supports ARM TrustZone alongside a Renesas integrated cryptographic engine, immutable storage, key management and tamper protection against DPA/SPA side-channel attacks. The Armv8-M architecture also brings Pointer Authentication/Branch Target Identification (PAC/BTI) security extension, a new architectural feature that provides enhanced mitigation from software attack threats and helps achieve PSA Certified Level 2 certification.

• XMOS and Plumerai partner on binarised neural networks

The new RA MCUs based on the Cortex-M85 core will be supported by Renesas’ Flexible Software Package (FSP). This enables faster application development by providing all the infrastructure software needed, including multiple RTOS, BSP, peripheral drivers, middleware, connectivity, networking, and security stacks as well as reference software to build complex AI, motor control and graphics solutions.

It also allows developers to integrate their own legacy code and choice of RTOS with FSP, providing full flexibility in application development.

OK I have a question? Laugh if you will but is our IP likely to be in M85 or the Helium extension. The reason I ask is the SiFive x280 has a vector extension and I was of the opinion our IP was in the extension. NOTE: I am not a tech wiz so a question on notice for Dodgy or anyone else who has looked into this. Thoughts?

Poor old Australia. We never get a mention when international discussions like this are being had but it is useful to understand these discussions so we can keep the current share market games in perspective.

Australia the lucky country where we mainly face first world problems:

I don't think AI can change the disparities in the world. When USA leads the gang. Unless some fundamentally the political system changes. In which countries there are a lot of #disparities or inequality? USA leads the gang. There are many countries in the world where there are significant disparities in income and wealth distribution, with some of the widest gaps found in:

1. United States 2. South Africa
3. Brazil 4. India
5. China 6. Russia
7. Mexico 8. Argentina
9. Indonesia 10. Nigeria

These disparities can be caused by a variety of factors, including unequal access to education, healthcare, and economic opportunities, as well as historical and systemic factors such as discrimination, colonialism, and economic policies that favor the wealthy.

The consequences of these disparities can be profound, including increased poverty, social unrest, and political instability. https://lnkd.in/gZxsxChf

Hallelujah Brother, singing to the choir.
Agree, knowing that its manipulation rather than a problematic stock is a balm.
And so nice to have this pest free site to share these understandings without the constant and irritating noise of paid downrampers.

Got in early this morning for a top up and my lowest purchase price.
Have continued to buy all the way down as funds become available.

 

[Steve10]

The largest upside I have found from a beaten down stock is ASX listed NST, a pre-revenue gold explorer/miner.

From 0.8c low in March 2009 to $17.03 intraday peak in November 2020 = x2,128 in 11.67 years.

Imagine the fear during the GFC. The brave buyers lives would have been changed forever with the huge upside.

BRN had 3.1c low in March 2020 x 2,128 = $65.97 by November 2031 equivalent to NST.

Quality companies have a tendency to grow larger in future & offer huge upside if bought near lows during periods of bad market sentiment.

Don’t insult the executors and beneficiaries of my will. They definitely have the fortitude that’s why I chose them and constantly bore them with how long they have to hold Brainchip when I’m gone.

It was designed from the beginning to combat Skynet.
Once Renesas release their first Akida Inside product we should see a slow, but steady growth of Ai robots.
The Akida1000 has been benchmarked against the Cyberdyne Systems; T-1000, and shows promising results.

Thanks for sharing supersonic. A great read into what one of the greatest visionaries of our time is thinking.

In regards to Bill's thoughts on where AI could be heading and it's current and possible impacts on the World, you can really relate with what Brainchip has achieved and what they want to achieve.

A couple of interesting statements from Bill's article:

"There will be an explosion of companies working on new uses of AI as well as ways to improve the technology itself."

"Ideally, innovative chips will allow you to run an AI on your own device, rather than in the cloud, as you have to do today."

"I’m lucky to have been involved with the PC revolution and the Internet revolution. I’m just as excited about this moment. This new technology can help people everywhere improve their lives."

If what Bill's envisioning here comes to fruition, and with Brainchip hopefully in the thick of it all, then definitely very exciting times ahead here

I met Robert Mitro at investor seminar in Melbourne 2015. I asked him if he knows Bill Gates. He said “ yes I do and have had conversations with him “ Mitro has many millions of shares in BRN and is one of the early believers in Akida. For Bill Gates to say innovative chips, and on your device tells me he certainly knows the tech behind Akida and knows it will be an explosive growth area into the future. Ask your self why has the share value gone up this pm.
