“With desktop tools like LM Studio, running a local chatbot on your own computer has become extremely easy with just a few clicks. However, things have been more complicated when it comes to having your local AI answer questions about your own documents. For privacy reasons, it is advisable to avoid relying on cloud services like those from OpenAI or Anthropic for this purpose.

The open-source application Klee aims to solve this problem. The program is available for Windows and macOS and offers a simple interface that allows you to load your own documents or notes and then query them using a local AI. In our brief test, this worked quite convincingly—though the software can only partially keep up with the major cloud providers.”

KMU-innovativ: AI-based, Voice-Controlled Anomaly Detection in AMR Systems Without Cloud Connectivity (IntelliVoiceAnalytic)

Funding Program: KMU-innovativ: Future of Value Creation (from 2023)


Duration: 01.01.2025 - 31.12.2026


Funding Reference Numbers: 02K24K000, 02K24K001
ROX AMR interacting with a worker
© AI-generated with DALL-E 3

Research Objective:
The goal of the KMU-innovativ project IntelliVoiceAnalytic is to develop a prototype of an AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) whose normal operation is monitored directly onboard by an AI system. This involves implementing automatic determination of the target state using small data sets. An AMR will be upgraded as a test platform. Data from the normal state will be acquired, and deviations will be artificially generated.

The AI models for the predictive maintenance (PM) system will be developed to evaluate not only clear sensor signals but also raw data. Current AI-supported tools for speech recognition and synthesis will be selected, particularly regarding their offline capabilities, and a human-robot interface using natural language will be implemented. The individual components will be integrated into a demonstrator and tested.

For nearly a century, Boeing has produced many of the most advanced combat aircraft for military customers around the globe including the P-51 Mustang, F-4 Phantom, F-15 Eagle, F/A-18 Hornet and EA-18G Growler, among others.

They made their first fighter aircraft in 1924.

and Trump has just given the green light for this 6th Gen. Air dominance fighter designed to work with packs of drones and with new stealth tech.

Hi Hoppy,

The F-47 is still a few years away, but the Ghostbat/Loyal Wingman has been flying for a couple of years.

It can work with current fighters, but I don't know if it uses Akida (and if I did, they'd probably have to shoot me).

The Bascom Hunter 3U-VPX SNAP card with 5 AKida 1 chips should be interchangable between aircraft, but the F-47 is a few years away. I wonder if it can be used to upgrade current fighters? .

WTF @Fullmoonfever … recently @Bravo appeared to be involved in Daimler and now you with this APP??? Is someone else here in this forum with any NDA??? SAY IT NOOOW!!

“Fullmoon Free App Delivers AI Chat Without Cloud Connection

Fullmoon enables local AI chats on Apple devices.

February 3, 2025, 4:05 PM

By Sebastian Dudek

With Fullmoon, AI chatbots can run on an iPhone—even without an internet connection. COMPUTER BILD takes a closer look at what the app has to offer.

Recently, the Fullmoon app launched in Apple’s App Store. What makes it special: It runs AI models locally on the smartphone without requiring an internet connection. This is particularly appealing to users concerned about data privacy, as the open-source software utilizes AI models that work exclusively with locally stored data. This eliminates the need for requests to the servers of major providers. To achieve this, developer Mainframe has specifically optimized the software for Apple chips.

It's funny, Boeing doesn't have a real "military" feel to me, more of a passenger jet thing..

Whereas "Lockheed" Martin, has an obvious pedigree.

Makes more sense, when you know that McDonnell Douglas, merged into Boeing, in 1997..
Hi Dingo.
I took your advise and dug a little deeper into the history of Boeing and concede your point that many of the aircraft that earlier paragraph mentions were the products of other companies subsequently absorbed into Boeing.
Although I would hardly call the B17 flying fortress, B29 super fortress or the B52 strato fortress "passenger jet thing's".

I'll let you argue with Boeing as to the semantics of what they claim as "their" pedigree but you can see that after also absorbing Hughes and Northrop and doubtless myriad other smaller fish, over the years, McDonnell Douglas was just part of the picture.

Anyway, Trump seems to think they "feel" military enough so I guess you better fall in line. 🤣
It is a royal decree after all. 🤣

In the past, we’ve made a lot of speculations about possible connections between our partners and the big players… While I do find it interesting in general, after so many misinterpretations, I’m no longer convinced that this is of any help to us, especially since Arm doesn’t have only BrainChip in its portfolio. I don’t even pay attention to such news anymore. Only when something official comes from BrainChip or when other companies mention BrainChip directly. Otherwise, it only leads to disappointment. And eventually to the dolci syndrome.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m still positive and keep buying more. However, these kinds of reports are not decisive for me. It’s like when you were a kid, and someone promised to buy you something or take you to a certain amusement park the next day, just to keep you calm. At some point, you get old enough to realize it was just empty words… The biggest letdown of all: Santa Claus.
What? Are you saying Santa Isn't real? No way! Get the f$%k out of here!

Sadly, Boeing have lost its way years ago.

Before, their planes were extremely well engineered, like the 747.

The Boeing 737 Max have been a total disaster.

Fantastic story from David Perell below, well worth a read.

Sorry for going off-topic but it's weekend eh!


In 2005, Boeing hired its first CEO without aircraft engineering experience. Slowly, the company lost its culture of engineering excellence and adopted one of financialization and cost reduction through outsourcing. To illustrate the dangers of outsourcing, Smith points to the DC-10 aircraft, where the subcontractors made all the profits while the McDonnell Douglas absorbed the excess costs. In the aircraft industry, outsourcing commercial aircraft is likely to backfire. Military aircraft are a major exception because Congressional support is easier to secure when many states are involved.¹

Yeah, but c'mon Guzzi, it was a historic moment for the Company!
Their First coloured, gay, female CEO!



I don't actually know or care, about Boeing's CEO's genetics, sexual preferences, or gender, by the way.

None of what I said or presented here Is about that.

It's about Merit, over Diversity, Equity (where it relates to Merit) and Inclusion.

Well Dingo, if you mean that both passenger planes and military planes tend to have wings, engines and a fuselage you are absolutely correct.
Physics, available materials and engineering techniques as well as intended application tend to dictate the way they tend to be connected.
But none of this has anything much to do with Brainchip so will leave this at that.

“PanocularAI Shows That There’s Another Way

The start-up from Darmstadt has developed a system that runs AI models directly on edge devices—small, energy-efficient devices such as drones, autonomous vehicles, or robots. With PanocularAI’s technology, these devices can independently analyze their surroundings and respond to changes—without relying on external servers.

“Our AI doesn’t just interpret images; it understands context,” explains Dr. Arya Mazaheri. “With our technology, a robot can recognize whether the person in front of it is a construction worker wearing a helmet or someone trespassing in a restricted area.”

An AI That Runs on Edge Devices

PanocularAI is developing an efficient vision solution for the next generation of autonomous systems.

This environmental perception happens in real time with minimal computational effort—a technological breakthrough that could revolutionize many industries. Lower energy consumption, higher speed, and increased security—since no data needs to be sent to external servers—are the key advantages of this innovation.”

Trump says the key to success is a merit-based system. Well, if that’s true, I guess his ”best people“ are just really, really good at being born rich, white and male.

There is always going to be a larger percentage of white males, in most pools of personnel resources, so there will always be a higher percentage in those jobs, that fit the bill.

Having DEI policies, for those reasons, will not secure the "best" people for the job.

People should not be "excluded" or "included" based on their genetics, sexual preferences, gender identity or whatever either.

That is why a pure Merit based system, is the best way.

DEI is a policy that "means well" but is BS and destructive to levels of competency, in practice.

Just my opinions 😛

And Trump, has plenty of strong intelligent women around him and in his cabinet, so I'm not sure what the whole "white male" thing is about 🤔..

Here, it would have been appropriate to mention that BrainChip is not only expanding its ecosystem but, while others are still striving for commercialization, BrainChip has already reached that phase and is on the verge of flooding the market with Akida-equipped products… but unfortunately, another missed opportunity to make a strong statement… it’s always the same—how BrainChip is being downplayed, and that’s exactly the problem I have… it’s starting to feel almost like a conspiracy.

Quote
“IBM continues to explore hybrid analog-digital neuromorphic accelerators, while BrainChip expands the Akida ecosystem for low-power AI applications. Emerging startups like SynSense and Innatera are focusing on commercializing neuromorphic AI accelerators for edge computing, demonstrating a growing market appetite for these technologies.”
