To be a little more accurate, Rod Drake is the VP of the MCU32 & MPU32 business unit. Hopefully he shares the BRN love with the rest of Microchip senior management. There are a lot of them!!!Geez I have seriously missed the significance of the Microchip announcement. I saw it pop up the other day, but didn't give it much attention, brushing it off thinking they are another mediocre Teksun, Lorser (or the like) partnership. But no, Rod Drake, the Vice President of Microchip Technology, a Nasdaq listed company with annual revenue of US $9 billion is suggesting to their customers that they should use Akida for their low power high performance machine learning applications.
Have I missed something? Why are we talking more about spelling mistakes than this announcement???
Hats off to the Brainchip team. Unigen and Microchip Technologies in the space of 2 weeks. Just imagine what they will achieve over the next 12 months.

Absolutely with you JB...I thought I would slot it in my post as a wee reminder.... fantastic announcement!!!!!!!Geez I have seriously missed the significance of the Microchip announcement.

Let's all hope so, some positive announcements, just something so shareholders can really feel the Brainchip journey is moving in the right directionAbsolutely with you JB...I thought I would slot it in my post as a wee reminder.... fantastic announcement!!!!!!!
Could be HUGE next week !![]()

Hey Balliwood, did you see Porsche's "Evident Care" with their marketing ad, in August just last year?Evident Care
I think this concern about details is valid. All the companies one really enjoys, like Apple, Porsche, Bang & Olufsen, show a seamless progression of evident care in all their activities. And it is because one sees the accuracy and elegance in the things read and used, the things one can see, that they build trust that the same level of care extends into the things one cannot see, the inner workings.
The other charming quality in these companies is their lightness of touch. Their products are unashamedly beautiful, the engineering faultless, yet their advertisements often have an ironic or witty twist.
These are qualities that Brainchip should emulate.
Yes. Errors are memorable.Hey Balliwood, did you see Porsche's "Evident Care" with their marketing ad, in August just last year?

Porsche edits giant Jesus statue out of sports car video before putting brakes on ad
German luxury car maker Porsche is facing criticism for editing an ad promoting the 60 years of the Porsche 911 to remove a statue of Jesus Christ in Lisbon, Portugal.www.foxbusiness.com
Now that was a monumental "intentional blunder".
I think if any Company, is put under the microscope, like we continually do with BrainChip, you are going to find "small errors".
The same goes for Apple and Bang & Olufsen.
BrainChip is still a very young Company, that now has strong roots and foundation.
We have made some big strategic errors in the past, hopefully our future mistakes, will only ever be minor.

I'm not saying everything Rob Likes we are directly involved with, but even 10% will see us all very wealthy shareholders in the coming months / years
My opinion only dyor
Thats the best artical Ive seen for along time....Hope on the horizon, hang in there gang....Be Kind to each other......seems to be alot of unkind banter on here lately.....most of us are on the same side.......love yasall
To err is human........
Is this Dr Ivan Maksymov, really a doctor? Really a scientist? Really??.. Him??..
Don't these Development Kits come with "engineering support" etc from BrainChip as well?..
Not sure what point he's trying to make, when mass produced AKIDA chips have been previously estimated at costing $15 to $20 each..
Hi DB
Absolutely correct these Brainchip products were low volume partly assembled and packaged by staff at Brainchip in limited numbers (literally a few hundred) primarily as demonstrators for new and existing customers. There were three. The $499 Raspberry Pi, then the two larger board packages at $4,999 and $9,999.
There was from memory three hours of free support through to 50 hours with the most expensive option. The much greater support accounts for the price differential between the $4,999 and $9,999 packages.
This fellow stands in stark contrast to Quantum Ventura who estimated a price for AKIDA as a USB at $US50.00.
Yes. Errors are memorable.
Not sure how you took it as a personal attack on you FrangipaniHi Dingo Borat,
fair enough if you want to disagree with this gentleman’s verdict on an Arduino microcontroller being the optimal solution for his Reservoir Computing System (I for my part, am not qualified to comment on the tech), and yes, he may come across as a little arrogant, but why are you trying to discredit his academic credentials?!
I wonder if this is an attempt to get back at me, just because a couple of months ago I dared to reveal to you that your beloved Dr John Campbell (a British YouTuber whom I consider a charlatan and COVID-19 grifter, as he is making money from spreading lies and misinformation - mostly by cherry-picking and misrepresenting data - and inciting fear to keep his gullible and often scientifically illiterate followers clicking…) is not a medical doctor (as most of his followers readily assume) or scientist, but a retired nurse and nurse educator with a PhD in education (for his work on developing methods of teaching via digital media such as online videos) and hence not qualified to dish out medical advice?
According to his LinkedIn page, Ivan Maksymov has two PhDs - one in Electrical Engineering from Universitat Rovira I Virgili in Tarragona (Spain) and one in Theoretical and Mathematical Physics from Kharkiv University of Radioelectronics (Ukraine). Maybe that’s why he is referred to as a “polymath scientist“ in his bio on the university website. (I had to look up the word “polymath”, which admittedly sounds a little over the top - I assume he himself authored his personal profile?)
He has been doing research for years, has held positions at several universities, a quick Google scholar search on him comes up with almost 150 publications, and on a lighter note, he and a colleague were awarded the 2020 IgNobel Prize in Physics (https://improbable.com: “The Ig Nobel Prizes honor achievements that make people LAUGH, then THINK. The prizes are intended to celebrate the unusual, honor the imaginative — and spur people’s interest in science, medicine, and technology”.)
https://arstechnica.com/science/202...-frozen-poop-knives-the-2020-ig-nobel-prizes/
And you have the gall to doubt his doctoral degrees are for real and to imply he is not a scientist at all? Seriously? What makes you think so?
Admittedly, I did find it somewhat odd that he referred to the Akida PCIe Boards and Development Kits as “mass-produced“.
However, I disagree with your cost comparison arguments.
As an individual uni researcher, he would obviously not have been able to get his hands on a single AKD1000 stand-alone chip, so your cost comparison is just not fair, Dingo Borat. We are not talking about a company here interested in mass producing edge devices and buying hundreds or thousands of AKD1000 chips at a bulk price.
The way I read it, he wanted to demonstrate that his low power prototype for US$100 was sufficient for a research project like the one he did and encourage others who might be on a budget to try the same (plus I highly suspect, lots of admiration for his low-cost solution is more than welcome, too) - it says nowhere that his own uni department had such a miniscule budget for research…
And Fact Finder, please let your wife know, I found further proof that you can’t be The (infallible) Messiah!
You always advise other shareholders to “DYOR”, and that’s exactly what I did:
According to the Brainchip website, the dev kits do not come with any technical support, so your average uni researcher or developer at home would not be able to enjoy any of that.

In order to be provided training and support, interested parties would need to sign up for the AI Enablement program - rates are not provided online, but as the basic prototype comes with 4 PCIe Boards and 2 Development Systems (and no AKD1000 chips), this least expensive option would still equate to no less than a five figure sum…
So unless our company changed its policy on providing technical support to buyers of individual dev kits, I am afraid your recollection on this is erroneous.

Similar to that of DB, your cost comparison with the estimated US$50 USB stick is unfair, as such a Brainchip product is simply not available to date.
If it were, who is to say that Ivan The Terrible (as some here want him to be portrayed) wouldn’t have bought one and based his RC system on Akida instead? With no word did he say anything dismissive about the tech itself.
Basing your cost argument on a hypothetical product for use in past research is not convincing.
