Mate I have a substantial holding and I really, really want Brainchip to do well.

You can't tell me you are happy with where our share price closed at today given less than 12 months ago we were above $2. People are allowed to vent their frustration and shouldn't be berated for doing so.

Spot on .

Tech ..........Just maybe with the Co making the call this early in the year, is it possible, that they might just want to catch us s/holders / investors all off guard in doing the un-thinkable .......... could a Co acquisition during the year be potentially possible or even an early build up to Nasdaq' listing ...especially given the fact that the Co imo still has significant amount of funds in the kitty !!!!!!

Very creative thinking, but you can forget about a Nasdaq listing, we have ticked off more boxes, that is, more females on the Board (for example) but our revenue cancels everything out at the present moment in time...a Nasdaq listing has been previously discussed by the Board, I was a fly on the wall at the time , but we have much more important things on our agenda at present, namely, signing more IP contracts and having a successful tape-out at TSMC.

With our 4th quarter 4c due out in around 14 business days, and an update (hopefully) for Sean, his podcast on Thursday 12th 7am (Western) 10am (Eastern) well there's plenty coming up, and who knows, maybe an announcement with some strawberries & cream just for good measure.

We are ALL winners for buying and supporting a great developing company, "do you feel lucky punk, well, do you"

US11475100B2 Device and method for convolution operation

View attachment 26642


[0006] However, in processes of recognizing the information included in the target data for recognition by using the convolution neural network techniques, the convolution operation consisting of a combination of multiplication and addition is performed a plurality of times. The convolution operation that requires a large amount of calculations repetitively performed may be obstacles to data recognition through the convolution neural network techniques. Particularly, in fields of image data recognition in which speedy calculation is important, such as the self-driving described above, time spent for the convolution operation may be a large problem.

a convolution operation method. The method comprises, extracting, from a feature data with a M×N matrix (M and N are a natural number), a plurality of separate sub-matrices which have identical dimensions to a convolution kernel with a K×L matrix (K is a natural number equal to or smaller than M, and L is a natural number equal to or smaller than N); generating a first vector which includes elements of at least one of the sub-matrices as elements of the first vector, and a second vector which includes elements of the convolution kernel as elements of the second vector; extracting, from the first vector, a partial vector including all elements of the sub-matrix, for each of the sub-matrices; and deriving a result of a convolution operation by multiplying between each element of the partial vector corresponding to each of the sub-matrices and each element at a corresponding position in the second vector, and by adding results of the multiplication.

Thank you for having a look at it, @Diogenese.

A Nasdaq listing would be a death sentence at our size, genuinely the last announcement I want to see. We could hit multiple times our current MC on the ASX if we can demonstrate some sales.

From 1 hour 30 minutes onwards have a listen, it’s where Nickunj touches on radar and Lidar and other products coming out “very soon”

English is his second language so it’s a little hard to understand.

Thanks Mr @chapman89 for many spot-on comments/intellect!

On this first: BrainChip Inc: AI Accelerator Program - Introduction to Neuromorphic Computing

"Let me toss huge praise on this super-sharp Nickunj"! He was the complete star of this Spiking Neural Network must-watch educational presentation.

I am big fans of our management/sales team, but the secret sauce right below PvdM and Anil are people on the implementation team like Nickunj! Now we start to get a peek inside, and learn more about key personnel.

Likely there are 15 or so more with the same core knowledge level. Then maybe another big chuck of folks just a notch below, gaining product implementation knowledge daily.

Way to perform Nickunj!

Perhaps some folks here know some background and or have met him. Seems spot on for his job.

In my view, hardware and software are two sides of the same coin, which why semiconductors are indispensable to our software-driven future.

That’s why Mercedes-Benz AG just became the first automotive OEM to join the Universal Chiplet Interconnect Express (UCIe). This is an incredibly important move for us, but also for the consortium, which is the gold standard for chiplet interface standardisation.

As the requirements for semiconductor systems become increasingly complex, the industry urgently needs high-performance, energy-efficiency and cost-effective automotive-grade #chiplets to achieve our innovation goals in autonomous driving. I’m certain that our contribution to UCIe will help to bring the automotive computing landscape to the next level.

We join an impressive roster of key industry leaders, including Microsoft, NVIDIA, Intel Corporation, Qualcomm, ASE Global and more. For me, personally, it matters a lot to play a meaningful role in a consortium that is so crucial to the future of our sector.

My team can’t wait to move this forward. And, of course, I’ll be keeping you posted on developments.

I'm actually looking for the presentation by MB that was first supposed to be about neuromorphic computing and where we won the voting. Does anyone know what happened to it? CES would have been a nice opportunity. Or are we too offensive with the fan community and MB is more cautious now?

And another naive question: MB started their work on neuromorphic computing with Intel and their Loihi and got on the track that this is much more energy efficient. Then they probably chose Akida because of maturity and availability. Since MB is not exactly known for flying a new flag at every new wind, could it be that they told Intel that they would like to continue working with them and that MB is waiting until they could deliver and that's why Intel added Brainchip to their IP program? So first watch up close how the business is going?

Now if this is too crude and weird I will gladly delete my post.

And is it possible that a Loihi can't be implemented in an Nvidia system as easily as an Akida? I'm just not familiar with this kind of thing.

Intel launches confidential computing solution for virtual machines


Today, Intel announced the launch of its 4th Gen Intel Xeon Scalable Processors and the Intel Max Series CPUs and GPUs, alongside the launch of a virtual machine (VM) isolation solution and an independent trust verification service to help build the “industry’s most comprehensive confidential computing portfolio.”


Intel’s VM isolation solution, Intel Trust Domain Extension (TDX), is designed to protect data stored within the VMs inside a trusted execution environment (TEE) that’s isolated from the underlying hardware. This means data processed within the TEE can’t be accessed by cloud service providers.


The organization also confirmed that Project Amber, its multicloud trust verification and software attestation service will launch in mid-2023, to help enterprises verify the trustworthiness of TEEs, devices and roots of trust.


Through expanding its confidential computing ecosystem, Intel aims to offer organizations a set of solutions to protect data at transit, at rest and in storage, so they can generate insights across on-premises, cloud and edge environments, while verifying the integrity of the components and software delivering those datasets.


Confidential computing and the software supply chain


The announcement comes as more organizations are struggling to balance data accessibility and security, with research showing that enterprises are only using an average of 58% of their data, partly due to challenges in implementing data access controls.


By combining Intel’s TDX VM-level protection alongside solutions like Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX), which uses application isolation technology to protect code and data in-use from modification, organizations will be able to better trust in the integrity of software and insights in the cloud and at the network’s edge.


It’s an approach that Intel claims goes well beyond the capabilities of traditional attestation services.


“Attestation provides cryptographic assurance that the TEE is genuine, that its microcode patches conform to the update policy, and that the TEE is correctly launched using authenticated firmware,” said Amy Santoni, Intel fellow and chief Xeon security architect.


“SGX can go a step beyond that and verify that the application software loaded in that enclave matches the manifest provided by the developer. So the developer may be someone separate from the cloud infrastructure and there’s a way to make sure that that app is exactly the one that was related by the SGX developer,” Santoni said.


Project Amber and the zero-trust journey


At the same time, the upcoming release of Project Amber has the potential to simplify the zero-trust journey.


“If you really think about it, zero-trust practices and principles hold that there should be a division of responsibilities between the infrastructure provider and the attestation provider,” Anil Rao, vice president, systems architecture and engineering, office of the CTO.


“For example, if you’re buying a used car, you don’t take the mechanic’s word saying that everything in the car is good. You generally go and have an independent mechanic check it and then make sure that the car is good,” Rao said.


Project Amber thus acts as an independent entity that organizations can use to verify software components used throughout their environments without having to rely on application vendors or cloud service providers to attest to the security of their own products.


In practice, this means organizations can deploy AI/ML models at the network’s edge to generate insights from trusted sources while ensuring that sensitive data and personally identifiable information (PII) isn’t being stolen or tampered with.


A look at the confidential computing market


Intel’s latest solutions fit within the confidential computing market, which researchers estimate will reach $54 billion by 2026 as cloud and enterprise security initiatives attempt to comply with expanding data privacy regulations.


While other providers like Google Cloud and Fortanix also offer their own confidential computing solutions with data-in-use encryption, with the former offering its own confidential VMs, Intel is attempting to differentiate itself from other vendors through the use of software attestation.


Intel’s combination of confidential computing solutions providing VM and application isolation, alongside its trust verification service that’s compatible with providers including Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud, Alibaba Cloud and IBM Cloud, gives it the potential to stand as the definitive provider in the market.

My understanding is that when intel introduce the next gen core series, ie meteor lake, they will have an NPU core, and possibly AKIDA IP (this is only my assumption on the IP added considering BRN have joined IFS).

More disappointment to come tell me I'm wrong

Depends on your outlook and circumstances. No one can decide that for you. I'm personally not expecting to see anything i would consider substantial and I am more than ok with that given everything else that has occurred this quarter.
