BRN Discussion Ongoing

[manny100]

Brainchip has worked out a way of converting traditional algorithms to State Space Model (SSM) algorithms resulting in way smaller chips.
See Edge AI and Vision Alliance description by Tony Lewis concerning his presentation quoted below.
The implications for a much smaller chip are huge. Think small devices including mobile phones.
For example, the possibility of Pico or a slightly larger version of Pico in mobile phones for example for 'game changing cybersecurity ' is huge.
Also, the possibility for other small devices is limitless.
This has largely gone under the radar.
"Explore the future of AI at the edge withM Anthony Lewis, CTO ofBrainChip, at the Embedded Vision Summit. He'll contrast state-space models (SSMs) with transformers, showing how SSMs, with their read-only architecture, reduce power consumption and chip area. Discover how SSMs achieve real-time interactivity and how new techniques enable distillation-based migration from transformer models like Llama without losing performance."

Hi Manny,

What I like about Dr. Tony is that he is up and about, super intelligent and happy to present on behalf of Brainchip with the
confidence that can seal deals, having never met him in person yet, I believe he would be just as friendly and approachable
as Peter and Anil are with me, never giving away any info that they shouldn't be, but always appreciative of shareholders
acknowledging their great work and always trying to educate in a positive manner.

Keep fighting the good fight Dr. Tony, us Aussie shareholders are backing you in all the way, just like my Brisbane Lions, go
Lions, still managing to win games, but nowhere near our brilliant best just yet!

Cheers...Tech

Hi Tech, I like the following of what Tony said " He'll contrast state-space models (SSMs) with transformers, showing how SSMs, with their read-only architecture, reduce power consumption and chip area."
Chip size reduction with ultra-low power and maintaining performance is the absolute key to AI at the Edge dominance.
Imagine AKIDA in a small form included in devices.
It's all about SWAP with real time event based and on chip learning.

It reads as if Brainchip and its technology are now being given honourable attention here. Michael Freitag is unknown to me, so far, and he seems to be a profound connoisseur in his publishing industry when it comes to disruptive technologies, otherwise he would not have such success with his company, as it seems https://studio.critch.de/
He has won a prize that is not just any prize. Michael Freitag from Munich wins GERMAN WEB AWARD® 2022 with his app https://www.mobileadvertise.de/
Forbes: https://forbes.swiss/artikel/MICHAEL-FREITAG-AUS-MÜNCHEN-GEWINNT-GERMAN-WEB-AWARD-2022
DACH means Germany, Austria, Lichtenstein (the nest of the rich) and Luxembourg.
The magazine in which these investment considerations appear is Boltwise, a specialist magazine in Germany with a focus on artificial intelligence and robotics with over one million readers https://www-it--boltwise-de.translate.goog/?_x_tr_sl=de&_x_tr_tl=en&_x_tr_hl=de&_x_tr_pto=wapp
That doesn't seem like much at first, but when I consider that this is a very specific magazine, it seems like a lot again.
His words are promising. BrainChip: A potential challenger for NVIDIA in the age of AI
If Akida will have reached Heise, our leading IT magazine, then it has reached https://www.heise.de/
I still need time to look into it, but I find it encouraging and promising. Above all, the fact that Mr Freitag directly raises the idea that Braicnhip could be a takeover candidate for Nvidia shows that he is familiar with the matter, like us, and is following it closely.


If I find out anything else, I'll let you know here. Thanks for the good read!

The reach of the Botwise is extensive. If I search the web here in German and for things in the last week with "Brainchip" or "neuromorphic", Mr Freitag's article is at the top.

IT Boltwise positions >itself< as an AI news blog, but is significantly smaller compared to the top 25 portals mentioned below and plays a subordinate role in the reach comparison. The written arcticle based on assumptions from Chat-GPT and just play with "dreams".... but you all know, if people like what they hear, they picture positive images in their brains regardles realism.

The following high-reach portals have dominated the general IT and tech media sector in Germany for years:

1. Chip Online: By far the tech portal with the widest reach in Germany
2. Computerbild: Remains consistently in second place
3. heise online: In third place, with stable reach
4. Giga and Golem: Also among the top 5 tech media

These portals report widely on IT, technology and, increasingly, artificial intelligence. There is actually no separate category for specialized AI and AI websites in the general reach rankings. However, the major tech portals (see above) have their own AI sections and thus achieve the greatest reach in German-speaking countries.

The following table might be 10 years old but it shows the sources of information that are still relevant today.... maybe in slightly different order.

Nevertheless IT-Boltwise is a serious, German-language news source with a focus on AI and robotics, which presents current developments in an understandable way and is therefore particularly attractive to a general audience interested in technology... but the article about BrainChip seems to me, let's say an Chat-GPT generated dream which we all want to happen... and we kind off bet on that by buying shares.

Gidday All,

I thought I'd share this fact, recently someone from Nvidia was checking out my Linkedin account.

Just wonder, was it Jensen? dreams are free of course, may have been Rudy.

Also, I agree with what Toasty just posted, something big must be in the pipeline, because I still strongly believe
that it's way too early to be moving to the US........selling this idea to the masses will be just as hard as selling Studio was!!

Purely my opinion, could be right or wrong.......regards Tech.

Perhaps they are wanting to headhunt you amogst their ranks

But they really discussed a valid and serious issue as working in Aged care sector for past 15 years we do struggle with man power to look after our aged population. How wonderful and great it would be if this tech can be used as they discussed.

Hi yogi,

I think this reinforces the underlying thrust, if not the hyperbole, of the German IT Boltwise GPT4o-based analysis. I can't recall whether the Akida2 FPGA has 6 nodes or 6 NPUs, but the interview demonstrates that Akida 2 with TENNs can run broad, shallow LLMs or narrow, deep LLMs at the edge ... and let's not forget about RAG. Maybe a system could be devised with additional local memory, so that a broad/shallow LLM could be used in a process to select a deep/narrow LLM from the memory to provide access to specialized access to a range of topics.

Basically, Akida 2 with TENNS has stolen a march on the competition.

Hopefully they slow the march to a short stop every once in awhile so they can sign up contracts along the way

I think the personal concierge or AI assistant that can operate in a limited but meaningful way when not connected, that maintains a personal firewall around our privileged and private information when we are connected, and that can directly interact with the intelligent devices around us, at all times, relieving us of the requirement of bespoke technical prowess, could become the killer app we need to become a large, global player.

Imagine a pair of glasses with not only inbuilt camera and audio feeds and feedback systems, but also a loyal, intuitive, inbuilt intelligence that has the autonomy and discrimination to automatically select and download appropriate and relevant data onto local memory when it has access and that predicts when it will be necessary to be self reliant, and acts appropriately.

Something like a personalised but turbo charged version of Siri or Alexa but capable of independent operation when required.
Who will remember a task or request that could not be fulfilled whilst unconnected and which will autonomously carry it out when a connection is reestablished. And that learns and adapts/evolves, over time, not only from it's experience, but from the prompts of its user.

In time it will slave itself to a fully autonomous entity (call it a robot) that could be manifested in multitudinous forms, flying, diving, large, small, inhabitable, ridable, vehicular, and that are capable of physical interaction with the world around us through a simplified interface.
Allowing us a consciously directed sensor fusion not only of the enhanced manufactured sensors we surround ourselves with but also those incorporated within our robot companion.

This is Sci Fi becoming real. No wonder he's excited and tripping over himself trying to express the magnitude of it.
