Dear Hoppy,
What an amazing analysis and I love the way you tied Dr Strangelove into it!
In all seriousness though, it is a pretty scary world that we live in and the implications that advanced AI will have on the world as we know it are unfathomable. Let’s hope us humans can use it to our advantage, not to our detriment.
PS: Birdie num nums!

Bund soll Kauf von Raketenschutzschild prüfen
Die Bundesregierung will sich gegen eine mögliche militärische Bedrohung vonseiten Russlands wappnen. Daher erwägt sie einem Medienbericht zufolge, einen Radarschutzschirm über Deutschland zu errichten, der Raketen abwehren soll. Dafür soll ein israelisches System verwendet werden.www.n-tv.de
Hi FF and others
I came across this following site on youtube
The following is an extract for this site
The Era of Analog Compute has Arrived!
BrainChip Showcases Vision and Learning Capabilities of its Akida Neural Processing IP and Device at tinyML Summit 2020
I came across this following site on youtube
Also the following site briefly talks about both Mythic and Brainchip (both located roughly 2/3rds down the page. From my limited knowledge Mystic appears to be a direct competitor (yes/no?) Could someone with appropriate insite please commentThe following is an extract for this site
MYTHIC
The Era of Analog Compute has Arrived!
A battery powered neural chip from Mythic with 50x lower power.
BrainChip Inc (CA. USA) was the first company to offer a Spiking Neural processor, which was patented in 2008 (patent US 8,250,011). The current device, called the BrainChip Accelerator is a chip intended for rapid learning. It is offered as part of the BrainChip Studio software. BrainChip is a publicly listed company as part of BrainChip Holdings Ltd.

Move on, nothing to see.
It’s about Germany wanting to build a missile shield over itself.
I do not understand what this has to do with BrainChip nor for what reason Dallas originally posted it??
Heading
“Israels "Iron Dome" ist VorbildBund soll Kauf von Raketenschutzschild prüfen”
Or in English
“Israel's "Iron Dome" is a model Federal government to examine purchase of missile protection shield”
Translated article”
”The federal government wants to arm itself against a possible military threat from Russia. Therefore, according to a media report, she is considering building a radar shield over Germany to ward off missiles. An Israeli system is to be used for this purpose.
In view of the Ukraine war and the threat from Russia, the federal government is examining the construction of a missile protection shield over the federal territory, according to a newspaper report. During a consultation of Chancellor Olaf Scholz with Inspector General Eberhard Zorn this week on the use of the 100 billion euro special fund for the Bundeswehr, such an "Iron Dome" (Iron Dome) was also a topic, reported Bild am Sonntag. Specifically, it was about a possible acquisition of the isreal "Arrow 3" system.
According to the report, a decision has not yet been made, but the SPD is in favour of the purchase. The main rapporteur in the Committee on Budgets on the Defence budget, Andreas Schwarz, told Bild am Sonntag: "We must better protect ourselves from the threat from Russia. For this we need a Germany-wide missile protection umbrella quickly." He added: "The Israeli system Arrow 3 is a good solution."

Politics of past years has left us defenceless
According to the newspaper, the system would cost two billion euros, according to information from security circles. Since it is available on the market, it could therefore be operational as early as 2025. For the missile shield, missile radar systems of the type "Super Greene Pine" would therefore be installed at three locations in Germany, which send their data to the national command post in Uedem. There, air force soldiers would evaluate the situation picture. In an emergency, an "Arrow 3" rocket would be shot down by one of the launchers distributed in Germany, which would intercept and destroy the attacker rocket.
According to the report, the radars are so powerful that the protective screen could also cover Poland, Romania or the Baltic States. Neighbouring countries would then have to buy Arrow 3 missiles, the radar image would be provided by Germany. Schwarz told the newspaper: "We can also span the Iron Dome over our neighbouring countries. This would give us a key role in Europe's security."

I've just been reading through the Renesas thread after a break from these forums... wow! Seems to be an explosion of AI products... especially when looking at all the ecosystem partners. Maybe a little early to be too optimistic... but I'm very curious to see revenue figures in the next quarterly, which is just around the corner.

Different technology. ResApp detects small but different sounds from the alveoli via a forced cough into an app. Like Shazam in a sense. Diagnoses a raft of respiratory disease like pneumonia, bronchitis, COPD and asthma. Now they also screen for COVID. Fast, accurate, scalable and cheap.

New Pitt street resesrch article. Valuation stays the same @$1.50 slightly disappointed with that as a few key things have happens since their last valuation @$1.50 but I guess they are trying to be realistic.
Good summery, but not as good as their first one in my opinion. I think they are just building on the momentum of their last research and has not included a lot of the earlier achievements in this article. So I recommend reading both together to get a complete perspective on Brainchip.

An interesting report and pages 17 & 18 relating to HRL and on phone cybersecurity are particularly interesting. @Diogenese might like to do a little patent searching to see how they are using STDP???

I thought this was interesting. This fellow worked at Hewlett-Packard Back then for around 12 years and as you will see has a belief in neuromorphic computing. If you only give him a credibility rating of 50% to account for the issues around social media what Brainchip has achieved to date is well beyond astounding.

How far along is neuromorphic computing?
How far along is neuromorphic computing?
It’s no less than 20 years out. I regularly attend IEEE meetings related to the core technologies and its manufacture. I also work with organizations likely to be the first to adopt.
We haven't figured out the basic details of the devices required to make neuromorphic neural nets yet. We have ideas of what likely will work but these devices are still Big-Research, Little-Product Development (R & d), rather than Little-R, Big-D.
The devices that have been built are not reliable enough to be used commercially yet. There are issues with manufacturability and quality. There is infrastructure uncertainty and market uncertainty still - everyone promises they’ll buy product but until they actually do, they could be blowing smoke up your posterior.
We don’t yet have test equipment capable of testing many of the fundamental performance metrics of these devices. Developing the latter will still take 5–10 years if we could get a firm spec for what is required and the numbers we have so far tell us WE need several years of R&D ourselves as upstream suppliers to these researchers just to figure out how to make such equipment and make it useable.
We have at least started toward this technology but there are many, many critical path issues unsolved and undefined still. It’s not an economically viable reality yet. It’s still pure research. This is actually 100% normal for early stage pre-technologies. In general, you have a 20 year timer that only starts once you’ve proven all the key underlying technologies.
The short answer: getting a PhD in the area (which takes 5–10 years) is still a good idea if you want to do that. Many PhD-level questions still need to answered first/yet!

Assuming you have read the above this fellow in 2020 would clearly have been aware of IBM - True North, Intel - Loihi, HRL - Synapse, ETA - chip, SpinNaker, Human Brain Project etc, etc.
Working at Hewlett-Packard a company of sufficient size and reach that all of the players who had advanced neuromorphic products would have been pitching to yet he is maintaining at least 20 years. At about the time he was posting Brainchip was just starting to move out of stealth mode.
HE WOULD CLEARLY HAVE PLACED BRAINCHIP A BIT MORE THAN THREE YEARS AHEAD BACK THEN IF HE HAD KNOWN.

I did hear of the ResApp approach being debunked somewhat due to the fact that many covid sufferers do not have a cough. Many sufferers are completely asymptomatic. DISC: I hold shares in ResApp.
The Nanose /diaNose approach of detecting Volatile Organic Compounds seems, IMHO, to be where the future lies.
