Here's a must read article IMO from 30 June 2023, which talks about reaching a tipping point where neuromorphic computing concepts may change computing for good. The article contains statements from Marcus Kennedy (GM for Gaming at Intel).

Check out what he had to say just a few months ago below!

So, on the one hand we have Intel admitting they haven't cracked the nut and then we have us on the other hand knowing that WE are the mother of all nut-crackers!

We're on the brink of the biggest changes to computing's DNA and it's not just quantum that's coming

We're not at the tipping point yet, however. The hardware is still nascent and "the thing that we haven't cracked yet is the software."

www.pcgamer.com

Following on from the above...

I wonder why Rob Telson "likes" this one with Sally Ward-Foxton reviewing INTEL's neuromorphic computing???? All I can hope is that it has something to do with us and Intel doing some sort of nut-cracking business together!

I'm my opinion. Why hold if your losing lots of money? A smart investor would cut its losses by a certain percentage and move on.if you believe in this company you'll wait and see what's ahead and in my opinion the future is very bright especially for those who buy the dip. When the time comes and it will come I can say I made the right decision. And all the true believers are welcome to my BRN party but only if you can sing atleast one song in karaoke .

Adam, Raul and Rob LIKED it???!

I think everybody knows not to hold their breath when someone announces something here, like your departure from this forum for the second time (lol).

Bit rich of you saying it.

Remember that time you departed from one of the Twitter groups because you couldn't take a criticism and a week later was pleading everyone to let you back in?
So did your friend Slade.
Good times.

Hi SiD,

I usually try to avoid semantic discussions, but I think this is an important discussion to have.

The term you used was "highly speculative". You've now tactically withdrawn to the more defensible "speculative" position.

Certainly dot-joining is speculation, but we have substantial links as well.

The technology is proven, so it is not speculative, so I guess the speculation is about whether there is a market which BRN can exploit profitably.

We have take-off orders from Renesas, MegaChips and VVDN. All that is speculative here is the tons of production and price per kg of Akida.

We know that Akida 1 blew the socks of a number of EAPs (Mercedes, Prophesee, nViso, ...), and that we have a sweet spot for lidar (Valeo). Whether or not they bite is, to different degrees, speculative, but is there anything better on the horizon?

We know that some EAPs have postponed final assessment, not because Akida 1 was a dud, but because Akida 2 with TeNNs and ViT is remarkably better. If Akida 1 had not passed muster or been shown to be hot air, would they have wasted their time assessing Akida 2? (Rhetorical rather than speculation).

We also know that for some potential applications some customers have found that existing solutions are "good enuf" for present purposes. In time, some of them may come to recognize what additional benefits Akida opens up for them (Small "s" speculation).

As to financial attractiveness, we have seen the Nvidia/Akida price/performance comparison. Nvidia may win a few on brand recognition, but ...

... and let's not forget that the lead time can be up to 4 years before a product hits the market .

I do not classify BRN as speculative, much less highly speculative, so I guess my speculatometer has a higher threshold than yours.

I'm sure we can agree to disagree at the $2 party early next year.

Great post Dio.

Here is a clip I found with Nandan, a very polished presentation.

• Headed to Embedded World?​

With Nandan Nayampally – CMO of BrainChip – he discussed neuromorphic computing, how it works and possible applications.
And with Neb Matic – CEO of MikroElektronika – they considered remote embedded development, working on a board via live streaming.

Welcome back to AI with Sally!

In this episode, I’ll be talking with Dylan Muir from neuromorphic processor company SynSense about their latest design win – a toy robot – and the technology’s synergies with dynamic vision sensors and why this type of camera hasn’t seen better commercial adoption just yet.

You can hear that interview with Dylan Muir later in this episode.

But first… some news.

SALLY WARD-FOXTON

I travelled to Germany for Embedded World a few weeks ago, and I had a blast.

I got a sneak preview of STMicro’s new microcontroller with its in-house developed AI accelerator on chip – the STM32N6. The demo was running a custom version of YOLO at 314 frames per second, which is 1-2 orders of magnitude faster than the next biggest microcontroller alone. I also got to see the first AI demo on an Arm Cortex-M85 on the Renesas booth – the M85 is Arm’s brand new Cortex-M core with vector extensions for machine learning. I also stopped by to see Pete Warden, CEO of Useful Sensors, who told me the company has open-sourced a TensorFlow Lite version of the OpenAI model Whisper for speech recognition, and that the company is working on a QR code sensor with a speech processing sensor on its roadmap.

To read about all the cool things I saw at Embedded World, pop over to eetimes.com where I’ve put a link to the article on the podcast page.

SALLY WARD-FOXTON

We also saw the latest round of MLPerf inference scores this month, with two chip startups claiming they can beat the market leader Nvidia – albeit both in specific benchmarks, and both on power efficiency.

I tried to look for the selling prices of VVDN edge AI box using AMD Xilinx, Qualcomm QCS610 and Nvidia Xavier but cannot find the unit price anywhere. Anybody has any idea where to look? I thought they are already available for sale..

I would email company and ask them what are the prices for both which one would be better suited for the fake application you want to do so they can give you a pricing and product specifications and performance ask which o ne customers are happy with ? And then say should I wait for the Neuromorphic one? Would it be cheaper or more expensive!

Ah, but 4DS's star is rising. It is up 450% this financial year (3 cents to 16.5). You win some, you lose some.

But Brainchip's time will come ... hopefully soon enough to stop some of the bickering that's going on here at the moment. Settle petals! All those who want a more respectful forum please raise your hands.

Can't possibly imagine what's got Pat Gelsinger all excited / worked up.......

https://www.extremetech.com/computing/intel-ceo-our-future-cpus-will-rival-apple-silicon

The CEO noted that its new tile-based CPUs will share three key components: the CPU, GPU, and NPU, or neural processing unit, which is akin to Apple's Neural Engine and is used for AI and machine learning tasks.

No wonder the company doesn't reply to your email/s as much anymore, making false statements about what someone said or that you assumed that they implied, trying to belittle people if they don't always go along with your rhetoric, resorting to nasty name calling really exposes the inner personality that only close family members would have witnessed on a daily basis.

Not all posters have fallen under your self-righteous, opinionated, my way or the highway views approach.

$2.75 by end of 2022 or by end of 2023...I've forgotten as we sit at 0.19c.

Not everyone on this forum is that gullible.

A few comments shared by an anonymous poster on a public forum....if the cap fits, well then, wear it.

Footnote: The company staff are all extremely busy, positive and upbeat about the direction we are ALL heading in, AKD 2.0 is still on
schedule or more to the point, news as I stated would more than likely appear in the last few (business) days of September.

Tony can only pass on information that the company has approved, nothing is or should be his personal opinion on the current state of affairs,
he is a loyal servant to us all, please be respectful when emailing him or phoning.

Siemens Healthcare is worth digging into, for the great detectives out there in my opinion.

God bless.....Tech

Hey Tech I dont know what do you mean. I have or we have invested our hard earned money in the company and supporting them. At least for me i have invested for almost 6 yrs. I am not sending email asking why share price has gone down...... If I have invested heavily then i feel my email should be acknowledge as it used to be cheers.

She's talking about Brainchip, right?

Almost into ~2 hours of trading and some 38 million BRN shares have been traded thus far ...........

So at the close of trade yesterday ... total share trading volume was ~ 55 Million shares.

 

[IloveLamp]

Possible we are in the new "jetson orin" imo dyor (pure speculation)

These use cases have been outlined by the company on multiple occasions.

Nvidia are a massive customer of Megachips

we are already known to be working with many levels of government.........
