BRN Discussion Ongoing

Tbh, I think yesterday's Gen2 announcement missed the mark with the audience it was intended for. Certainly a missed opportunity to really promote to an audience that is dying for some love and attention. Simply the market does not understand the tech, nor the language used in the article. The relevance of the achievement and its intended impact on humanity as a whole was glossed over.

BRN spin doctors need to have a look at themselves or hire that guy that wrote up the article on Gen2 instead. 😅
Well maybe that was the announcement that the ASX knocked back.

I think for such a ground breaking announcement, some happy snaps and pics of the chip, wouldn't have gone astray..

Maybe a bit of orange in the text?

Was no reason for it to be so clinical..

Draft note for ASIC & ASX.
THE greatest technology of this modern day at 17c ......... 10 million climbing all over themselves to get a piece YET the shareprice goes down.
Some people call it manipulation, some call it a stitch-up or a Jimmy.
I will call it for what it is in my eyes ......... a FUKING JOKE....... and yes ASIC & ASX brace yourself cos i will be sending you both an email tonight.
IF YOU WISH TO ALLOW THIS unfair SHIT, see you in court - not sure which one .......... but will try to find one that is not run by a corrupt JUDICARY, which may be a bit of a needle in a haystack search.
I'm pissed off and you people will soon be directly informed about it.

And those that wish to advise me if not happy i should sell MY SHARES ......... can also go get FUKED !
 
I do get concerned about some googlers out there when I try research Akida related projects, info, specs, partners etc and get this :rolleyes: :LOL:

Ok i did have a giggle at this. Whilst its an interesting take D, even slightly believable, unfortunately Brainchip is running with the same rhetoric via their socials.

The share price is the lowest it’s ever been in the time I’ve held. Could it go lower? Yes.
Do I care? No.
If it goes lower it does not matter. I appear to be covering my expenses in other ways so I don’t have to sell anything at this time.
If my financial circumstances change and I’m forced to sell then I will learn a lesson regarding my personal risk tolerance and make different choices in the future. I am resourceful, I will find a way to restart. As long as I have life left to live I have the ability to learn and try again.

If it goes lower and stays lower permanently then I feel I would have cause to be upset. Again, I would learn from it (did I not do enough research, did I not put my trust in the right staff - all my own decisions and responsibilities) and find a way to rebuild.
Do I think the share price is going to go lower and stay lower forever? That it has no chance of recovering from this level? Of course not. There is nothing that has changed in company fundamentals that makes me expect this. The product is good, the product works, the product is needed, the product is unrivalled.
The long timelines to revenue make sense to me. I was happy with the Accenture interview which explained the timeframes around adopting new technology. Delay does not equal defeat.
I am quite certain we will eventually have many customers and impressive revenue. The share price went over $2 without this, I don’t see why it couldn’t be a lot more with it.

In addition, do I think we will never experience better market conditions? No. The market fluctuates between bull runs and bear runs all the time. One day a good bull run might add to whatever positive progress we have made at the time and we may see prices higher than we dared to hope for. I have patience to wait for what I expect and therefore I couldn’t care less what temporary low the share price gets to.

While I wait I spend my life doing meaningful and productive things. I just cannot comprehend wasting it with repetitive complaining about a temporary situation I have no control over.

On the general availability of Akida 2.0, why would Daniel Mandela, Director at VDC Research, say: “BrainChip has some exciting upcoming news and developments underway…..”

What is he privy to?
Would be nice if the "exciting upcoming news" would include some of these names :)

Yes, just treat it as a long term investment, the technology is real, it will recover..

AI to Significantly Increase Energy Consumption: Report​

BY ANDREW ROSSOW
OCTOBER 02, 2023
Wall Street is buzzing with optimism over artificial intelligence (AI), as evidenced by the 26% year-to-date surge in the Nasdaq.
However, AI’s rapid growth brings an unseen toll: an exponential increase in energy consumption, according to a report.
A study from the University of Washington reveals that OpenAI’s ChatGPT alone uses energy equivalent to 33,000 U.S. households daily.
“The energy consumption of something like ChatGPT inquiry compared to some inquiry on your email, for example, is going to be probably 10 to 100 times more power hungry,” said UW assistant professor Sajjad Moazeni.
Moazeni, who joined UW as an assistant Electrical and Computer Engineering professor, also served as a postdoctoral research scientist at the Bioelectronic Systems Lab at Columbia University. During his tenure, he plans to continue his work in emerging devices and large-scale, energy-efficient integrated systems that outperform current cloud computing and mobile platforms.

On the Shoulders of Giants​

Despite AI’s current energy imprint, today’s tech giants such as Google, Microsoft, and Amazon, will continue to serve as the backbone of this AI expansion, forcing a significant shift towards energy-intensive graphics processing units (GPUs) over the traditional CPUs.
Brady Brim-Deforest, CEO of Formula Monks, told Yahoo Finance that for the next decade, GPUs will be the core of AI infrastructure, due to the extremely high levels of energy required.
“And GPUs consume 10 to 15 times the amount of power per processing cycle than CPUs do,” he added.
Prior to ChatGPT’s national media attention, research conducted by University of Pennsylvania professor Benjamin C. Lee, and Harvard professor David Brooks, demonstrated that data center energy usage increased by 25% a year on average between 2015 and 2021.
But turning to renewable energy deployments, there is a “fairly large gap between growth rates,” Lee clarified. During that same period, U.S. Energy Information Administration data revealed an annual growth rate in renewable deployment of 7 percent.

Cloud Providers​

Cloud providers like Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services, and Microsoft Azure are now trying to offset their respective carbon footprints.
Azure, for example, claims to have maintained carbon neutrality since 2012, with an ambitious goal to be carbon-negative by 2030. Google and Amazon have also set net-zero carbon targets, with Google aiming to achieve “net-zero emissions” across all its operations by 2030, and Amazon expects to power its operations with 100% renewable energy by 2025.
But Lee pointed out that claiming “net zero” status doesn’t equate to being “carbon-free.”
However, Lee warned, “Net zero doesn’t mean you’re carbon-free.”
There will be hours of the day where you don’t have enough sun or enough wind, but you’re still going to be drawing energy straight from the grid at whatever mix the grid will provide to you,” he clarified.
Editor’s note: This article was written by an nft now staff member in collaboration with OpenAI’s GPT-4.

But it’s not just Brainchip??? Do people only just follow Brainchip and not the broader market?
With all due respect Jesse, the broader market has not dropped by 50% in the last month. The broader market also didn't have anything equivalent to AKD 2.0 released in the last few days. Yes I do follow the broader market, but BRN sticks out so much that you can't simply ignore it.

So I am guessing NDAs will prevent any news on who have signed up to our 2.0 IP (if any).
This will push the price further down and will force us shareholders to eagerly wait for the next 4C - hoping for it to show significant revenue.
I am afraid that this cycle will continue for a few more years for AKD2500, 3000 or whatever,etc. More pain on the way.
Your the one that also said a day before the Akida 2.0 announcement there was not going to be one. You have no credibility in my book.

An abstract from the March Quarter 2019 update:

https://d1io3yog0oux5.cloudfront.ne.../217/1664/pdf/Quarterly+Update+March+2019.pdf

The Company has established early discussions with vision sensor manufacturers, automobile manufacturers for Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) and Autonomous Vehicles (AV).

It has also commenced discussions with Tier-One module suppliers to the automotive industry in Europe and North America, Vision Guided Robotics, Surveillance Camera, Smart Transducer and Vision Sensor manufacturers.

Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), Module Manufacturers and Sensor suppliers (some of whom the Company is already in contact with) in these markets include:

ADAS/AV – Valeo, Continental, Aptiv, General Motors, Ford, Micron, Samsung

Vision Guided Robotics - HiKvision, iRobot, IRIS, Samsung, Micron

Drones – DJI, Safran, Boeing

Surveillance cameras – HiKvision, Dauha, Axis

Smart Transducers and Vision Sensors – Sensata, On Semiconductor, Sony, ST Microelectronics, Samsung

The Company also has ongoing dialogue and potential use cases in laptop computers as well as cellphones that could create intellectual property for integration into their own Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs). These use cases are important because they have the potential to provide additional revenue from Akida IP in parallel with, but separate from revenues from the NSoC release
. [### This was when we were a chip maker ####]

Note that the Update does not state we are working with all the named companies, only that they are big in their respective business - smoke/fire?

The highlighting bold is mine (interesting how often Samsung appears?).

Boeing remains interesting because USAF is testing the Loyal Wingman/Foxbat developed for RAAF by Boeing in Australia.

This also saw the announcement of the night of the long knives when BRN headcount was "rightsized". We should remember how far the company has come in four and a half years.
Hey Dio,

Hope you're keeping well and thanks for all your great contributions to this forum...nice post above, may I pass a comment, that being,
when Lou was the CEO (Chief Three Hats) I believe he was either spoken to or it was implied to me a number of years ago that he was
talking/naming companies that he wasn't in a position to be naming, if you get my drift.

I personally believe we are still involved with many of those above named companies, what proof (none)...will we end up in a smart phone/s
I also say yes, what proof (none).

If you are dealing with Apple (for example) and mention their name in the same sentence as your own little start-up, well, one thing's
for sure, you won't be dealing with them ever again....a loose quote from our former CEO (Chief Three Hats) not word for word, but the
meaning is/was the same.

As a number of posters have suggested, our company is 100% moving forward, our target market is still as sharp as ever, our company
has displayed true grit and integrity, delivered AKD 2.0 some time ago to our closest clients, made modifications to the architecture,
added more advanced technology, so the time is really upon us to see this goodwill repaid in the form of IP Licenses , designs and future
projects/products to benefit all...January 2025 still sits nicely in my mind, 5 quarters of growth, we as a company deserve to be rewarded
as we move on with AKD III.

Respectfully.....Chris (Tech) 🎯

So what has changed in the recent weeks for the share price to tank this rapidly:
- Has there been any negative news/ announcements NO
- Has any director/ceo sold their shares No
- Has the market overall dropped in a similar pattern NO

So why has the SP tanked?
That i do not know.

The company has made progress, there has been partnership with TATA, availability of the AKIDA 2000.

Is this “Sell the news” No
BRN is already oversold. The SP is so low that sell the news doesn’t make sense.

Games are being played. Why, By whom - i have got no idea. But there is no other explanations.
Yes we are all waiting for revenue, but the market is already aware there is no big revenue in the short term.
This is a tech stock and i have invested in it for its future potential. I don’t like where our SP is now, but it has no impact on my confidence with the company or my investment plans. I am heavily invested in the company because I believe in the potential and this hasn’t changed for me.

I've always struggled to understand why people think BRN management are concerned with retail shareholders at all.
  • When you buy shares, BRN gets $0.
  • When you sell shares, BRN gets $0.
  • Management are awarded shares as bonuses so 0 need to pay for shares out of their own pockets. When the share price is down they haven't lost any personal $$. They have insider knowledge of what is in the pipeline so no stress to be had.
  • When BRN do a capital raise, retail shareholders get 0 offers to participate. If they needed retail to raise capital we'd likely have a different attitude from the company.
  • BRN has a massive amount of retail shareholders which I honestly believe is seen as a huge negative. Companies favour stability which is found with institutional investors over 10's of thousands of retail investors/traders.
Combining these points and I struggle to see the benefit of keeping retail shareholders happy at all - we have very little to offer them.
Furthermore, the more silent and ambiguous they are, with a declining share price, the more likely retail shareholders will sell up and move on (which is a win for the company).

I made my peace with this a long time ago. I am continually excited by the info the company DOES put out about their partnerships and product advancements and because of this I will continue to buy shares regularly as I have done so for many years.
