Positives and negatives of the AGM for me and my perception.
Only one negative I have, but it is an important one.
- It has been mentioned many times about Viana's performance. No need to go over it in detail. But instead, focussing on that sort of personality. He will impact in a dominant way what the Board does and reacts/thinks. He said 'I personally take responsiblity' (for not putting out Non price Anns). So how is he leading the decisions in regards to ASX Anns? The cute Wayne Gretsky bullshit (made me vomit a bit) and then the weird 'we didn't say US' crap may be the sort of shit he pulls off in Board meetings... Like the 'upramping' rant - a personality who likes creating strawman arguments that shows he is more emotive than critical.
As mentioned at the Crapper, the Board also never spoke up when he made the 'we never said the US' garbage. Why? His two facedness when dealing with SL for the final resolution. A proper C U next Tuesday sort of bloke.
Not that I want to marry him, but The Board's culture was revealed a little during the AGM IMO and it isn't good.
We could have the best tech that could make a quadrillion dollars, but we won't if we have a Board that is not dynamic and choses to ignore its stakeholders.
This is a big risk to the company as a whole and how we ever execute or report anything especially when news could be good in the future.
- Sean's performance. Don't care too much. Reminded me of the 2023 one really.
Positives:
- In the tech speech it was mentioned more than once that 'it will be available in comprehensive silicon within 12 months' - referring to Akida 3.
- Shareholders speaking up and challenging the poor performance (especially in relation to communication). Great questions by FF and other SHs there in person apart from the numpties going off their heads.
- The company is listening to the tech demands and adjusting accordingly. Changing quickly in this industry is important. A roadmap finally in which even the dodgiest crypto companies have.
- In touch with at least 10 to 20 multinationals. One very large player that Sean mentioned more than once that cannot take on a risk now because they have laid off employees.
Overall, tech is still best in class. The Board isn't with its relationship to SHs. I think the way business is conducted will continue as usual. The waiting game continues. We need to deliver any kind of decent contract soon to catch the pump in M2 wave that will occur from here into 2026 (unless a black swan event happens). I think the odds of this happening is pretty good.
I've written to TD and expressed that we MUST put all X (Twitter) posts up as non-price sensitive ANNS as FF alluded to. There is just no excuse not to. Brainchip isn't responding the X followers. We are listed on the ASX.
I do worry about the execution of the good news when is happens, but it will happen in time.

I sort of agree, especially about refusing to acknowledge the redomicile "thing" a very odd thing to say.
The board should never argue with Antonio in public, never!
That about the worst you can do for a company.
Sadly, I didn't see the road map video, but it sounded like something that's very important for potential customers, showing them that BRN are a serious company. Hopefully it will be possible to see it soon.
All in all, I am positive and think things are about to happen.
Hmm, didn't we say that in 2023 & 24 LOL, no, I think this is our time: the next 12 month.
HopalongPetrovski
I'm Spartacus!
At the end of the Tech roadmap there was a note on the website saying a recording will be available on the BRN website in a few days.
The board could've corrected Antonio without turning it into an argument, and should've imo, instead of letting him carry on telling the shareholder he was incorrect.
Clearly Antonio doesn't read our announcements......or maybe he simply forgot. Either way, it's not a good look.

In this 29 April article about the Future of Neuromorphic AI in Electronic Warfare, Steven Harbour not only confirms a partnership between Parallax Advanced Research and Intel (no surprise here, as he already used to collaborate with them closely for years while at SwRI), but also one between Parallax Advanced Research and BrainChip:
Parallax Advanced Research and the Future of Neuromorphic Artificial Intelligence in Electronic Warfare
Published on
Apr 29, 2025
The convergence of artificial intelligence and defense technologies is poised to redefine the future of electronic warfare (EW). This shift, driven by third-generation AI techniques like spiking neural networks (SNN) and neuromorphic research, represents a critical step forward in equipping the U.S. military with innovative and adaptable solutions. We spoke with Dr. Steven Harbour, Parallax Advanced Research director of AI Hardware Research and a leading expert in neuromorphic research, to explore how his team is advancing AI capabilities and addressing emerging challenges in defense.
Parallax Advanced Research and Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) EW Team; left to right: Mr. Justin S. Tieman, Principal Engineer, SwRI; Mr. Keith G. Dufford, Senior Program Manager, SwRI; Mr. David A. Brown, Institute Engineer; and Director AI Hardware Research and Neuromorphic Center of Excellence, Parallax; Dr. Steven D. Harbour
Exploring AI’s Next Frontier
Traditional AI excels in tasks it has been trained on, demonstrating precision in recognizing familiar patterns and processing expected queries. However, Harbour highlights a significant limitation: AI's brittleness when confronted with the unexpected.
Humans, on the other hand, adapt to the unknown through cognitive problem-solving, a capability that AI systems must emulate to address future challenges effectively.
SNNs, inspired by the human brain’s functionality, offer a promising solution. Unlike traditional feedforward neural networks rooted in inferential statistics, SNNs excel in rapid decision-making under uncertainty, making them particularly suited for dynamic environments like electronic warfare.
Scaling Neuromorphic Systems
Parallax is at the forefront of advancing third-generation AI algorithms, partnering with Intel and Brainchip to develop scalable neuromorphic hardware.
In terms of deployment, neuromorphic processors can be integrated into existing electronic countermeasure (ECM) pods, widely used in both Air Force and Navy operations. These pods, which are part of strike packages including crewed and uncrewed aircraft, offer a clear pathway for fielding these advanced systems across the Department of Defense (DoD).
The Role of Partnerships in Shaping AI Research
Collaboration plays a pivotal role in advancing neuromorphic research. Parallax, headquartered in Dayton, Ohio, benefits from proximity to leading institutions like the University of Dayton and the University of Cincinnati. Harbour’s connections with researchers like Professors Dr. Tarek Taha, Dr. Chris Yakopcic, and Dr. Vijayan K. Asari University of Dayton and Dr. Kelly Cohen an Endowed Chair and Lab Director at the University of Cincinnati have led to innovative projects, including combining “fuzzy” logic with Neuromorphic SNNs to enhance AI decision-making.
Parallax’s independent research efforts are further bolstered by partnerships with institutions like Intel and Brainchip, ensuring access to cutting-edge neuromorphic technologies. These collaborations not only drive technological innovation but also foster a thriving research ecosystem essential for addressing the unique challenges of EW.
Evolving Applications in Defense Technologies
Over the next few years, an AFLCMC initiative will focus on developing and deploying third-generation AI algorithms on neuromorphic platforms. According to Harbour, the initiative aims to create “fieldable systems that can operate effectively in air, sea, land, and space environments.” This vision extends to supporting broader DoD efforts, including AFRL’s test facilities and ongoing collaboration with Southwest Research Institute.
The adaptability of these systems will be critical for countering emerging threats. Harbour envisions a future where AI-powered EW solutions can address the unknown, enhancing situation awareness and enabling rapid response in high-stakes scenarios.
AI and the Future of EW
As neuromorphic research progresses, its impact on EW solutions for the U.S. military is undeniable. From enhancing strike packages to integrating AI into naval, land, and space operations, the potential applications are vast. Harbour emphasizes the importance of continued innovation and collaboration:
Through its pioneering work in AI and defense technologies, Parallax is shaping a future where adaptability and innovation are the cornerstones of national security. By bridging the gap between academic research and practical deployment, the team is ensuring that the U.S. military remains at the cutting edge of electronic warfare capabilities.

The bearded gentleman next to Steve Harbour is his former colleague David Brown from Southwest Research Institute.
Last June I shared an article by him titled “Neuromorphic Computing for Cognitive Electronic Warfare”, which is worth reposting, although it doesn’t mention Akida:
https://thestockexchange.com.au/threads/brn-discussion-ongoing.1/post-427978
P.S.: I just noticed I had misspelled his name as Dan Brown at the time - while illuminating, the article does not contain any references to the Illuminati!

Would you please do us all a favor?
Please disappear until April 2026 again. Then the next AGM will happen soon again and you can start your next try hating the BOD again.
I am sick of reading your posts here. Same shit again and again.
Thank you and cu in 11 month again. Now back to topic please

Personally I thought that was one of the most promising AGMs.
Sean stood up and answered some very tough questions and gave honest answers. I appreciate his honesty that there won't be any royalties this year despite the effort that has been put in place.
I also love the way Antonio defended the company and BOD. Great to see his raw emotion comes to play when really needed.
Overall, I am very happy to wait until end of 2027/28 to see the progress that Sean is making and hopefully seeing some royalties from 2034/35.
It is now just a waiting game really. Akida everywhere!
Not advice as always.
