At the end Rob said “I know we’ll hear more about the music thing in the future’
Are we involved in that? Stay tuned

One word, CERENCE.Actually a few more words may be necessary. Does anyone truly think that this system doesn't incorporate Akida when it says "one of the fastest, most intelligent AI assistant platforms on the market today" and the "system is constantly learning driver preferences based on previous commands and behaviors, making interaction with the assistant increasingly intuitive over time".

New levels of speed and accuracy transform the driving experience for Volkswagen drivers, starting in the Golf 8 GTI
BURLINGTON, Mass., March 01, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cerence Inc. (NASDAQ: CRNC), AI for a world in motion, today announced that Volkswagen has selected Cerence to power voice and conversational AI in its next-generation infotainment system, first available in the all-new Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI. This enhanced system features improved speed and higher accuracy, delivering natural, intuitive interaction to VW drivers.
Activated with a simple, “Hey Volkswagen,” VW’s new interactive voice interface leverages Cerence Drive 2.0, which integrates the best of Cerence’s embedded and cloud natural language understanding and text to speech technologies in one unified software stack to deliver one of the fastest, most intelligent AI assistant platforms on the market today. In addition, VW will use Cerence speech signal enhancement, a suite of sound processing technologies that remove noise from microphone inputs, critical for the in-car environment. The system is constantly learning driver preferences based on previous commands and behaviors, making interaction with the assistant increasingly intuitive over time.
“Our next-gen infotainment system is critical as we redefine innovation and user experience,” said Dr. Axel Heinrich, Head of Electric- / Electronics Volkswagen Brand. “We’re delighted to continue our long-term partnership and collaboration with Cerence and utilize their new Cerence Drive 2.0 platform to bring incredibly fast and accurate conversational AI interaction to our drivers.”
“Volkswagen has a long legacy of meaningful innovation that puts its drivers at the forefront,” said Stefan Ortmanns, CEO, Cerence. “The next-generation Volkswagen infotainment system is no exception, and we are proud to partner with VW as they unveil a new era of intuitive voice interaction that will enhance driver safety and productivity while on the road.”
The Volkswagen Golf 8 GTI now available in the US is the first VW model with the next-gen infotainment system. This update will be available across other models via over-the-air updates at the beginning of 2022.

Do we know for sure if Cerence is using Akida? Cerence is supplying BMW as well.

In other Cerence-related news. I did a little more snooping around and found the Cerence Q1FY22 Investor Presentation. Here's a few slides that I found VERRRRY interesting.
I don't know if we are involved in the music thing but I will be sticking with Jimmy Barnes, ACDC and Adele for my emotional therapy.
I'm in awe of the lady's biceps - hadn't realized how beneficial gardening could be.
And his forearms look like they’ve been knocking out decades of work.

Hi Dio , Thankyou. I did read the article. Capital Pathology maybe using it as I was detected with Covid just before an appointment to go into hospital. Two nights sucking strepsils due to an irritating dry throat was the only symptom that I experienced . I am an anti vaxer with a wife who is a nurse so I was fully vaxed when the virus
found me .I am going to try and wait out for the Novavax if a fourth shot is required.But my wife will make that decision.

Hey Cyw, as far as I know there has been no confirmation of Cerence using Akida or offering it as part of their suite of AI tech. But if they don't, or if they haven't thought about it, they'd have to have rocks in their heads IMO.
The way I look at is we know that AI and voice-based technologies such as those offered by Cerence are going to feature very heavily in the next generation of EV's. Conventional voice control systems to date however have tended to consume a fair bit of power. We know from Mercedes that a key to the efficiency of their Vision EQXX is in Akida's ability to "run spiking neural networks, in which data is coded in discrete spikes and energy only consumed when a spike occurs, reducing energy consumption by orders of magnitude".
In one article, which has been posted here many times it says "In the VISION EQXX, this technology enables the“Hey Mercedes” hot-word detection five to ten times more efficiently than conventional voice control. Mercedes-Benz said although neuromorphic computing is still in its infancy, systems like these will be available on the market in just a few years. When applied on scale throughout a vehicle, they have the potential to radically reduce the energy needed to run the latest AI technologies"
Cerence is "dedicated to building the world’s smartest, fastest and most exciting voice assistants that define state-of the-art for the in-car experience" and they say they are "At the center of the automotive universe with the most flexible, open and global AI and voice-powered interaction platform for the industry".
How would it not be in their interest to incorporate Akida which has the ability to radically reduce the energy required to run their own platform?
I could be completely wrong but that's just my way of looking at it.

I’m in and happy to second your thoughts. I have been watching them also and there are just too many AKIDAisms in their features for them not to be a real chance of working with us in my opinion.
Worst case we will be wrong together. But I doubt it.
