BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Sam]

Must be the run up to the next 4c, given the shit that is hitting the threads. I think I mentioned this likelihood a few weeks ago. No wonder FF has taken leave of absence.

I haven't used the ignore very often because I'd rather read the material and report people. The good part of the most excellent @zeeb0t 's creation is that he can ban them - so I suggest we report those who are obvious scoundrels and residivists!

Maybe we can start with people that haven’t ponied up on their membership jokes

 

[Sam]

All I will throw in is that sometimes things can be misconstrued, so I wouldn’t go ahead and start burning people at the stake just because you are rubbed up the wrong way.

 

[Bravo]

A discussion of reality is not crying maybe you have some lingering issues in the family that may lead a discussion to crying and for that I am sorry and thanks for the advice but I will keep posting anything I want if you have an issue then you know what to do

Buzz off dude. Seriously...

 

[Bravo]

Can you please give it a rest. He didn't say anything wrong he only told us his opinion

Weren't you the one that had to change your Avatar because it was a teen girl in her underpants who turned out to be a porn star who you said was your daughter?

Street cred now = 0

I was just speaking to Purple Ferret and he called me a Plebian pheasant.....
no?.....
what?..........
oh ok, peasant.

Yea sure I'll own that *shrug*
(not sure it's even proper use PF)

My impression of TSE (the BRN part) was that it started out with a med-long term leaning in the discussion (on average, though it's hard to have a genuine coherent community based around fundamental prospects if they are all trading the crap out of and/or shorting the one share you are discussing). I don't know any person or organisation without a leaning one way or the other (except maybe a philosophy group). Of course everyone has a different situation and plan (or should) and conditions change but you need to know what YOU want from it. Why are you here?
We may all have several answers to that.
One way or another to make money, but why BRN?
If I'm honest I'll say it's become a part of my life. Like having your own business or relationship it might not all be about the money, there is purpose and people and a learning journey. I dred the day that I lose perspective and all I can see is the beans; a billionaire who asks the question how can I stop people from turning on me in the world I've had a large part in creating.

I'll add, considering HC leanings is it any surprise to anyone that we have a different one.

Certainly its the same journey but a new chapter, who knows what will happen.

Howdy Brain Fam,

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. Let's hope I can make it even better!

I just watched the Cerence 25th Annual Needham Growth Conference which was filmed on the 10th Jan 2023. It's a 40 min approx video presentation that you have to sign up for to watch (full name and email address required for access). This link is here if you're interested in watching. https://wsw.com/webcast/needham

I'm itching to share a bit of information from the presentation because I believe there were numerous points raised throughout the presentation that indicate quite strongly the possible use of our technology in Cerence's embedded voice solution IMO.

For some background, Cerence is a global leader in conversational AI and they state that they are the only company in the world to offer the "complete stack" including conversational AI, audio, speech to text AI. Cerence state that every second newly defined SOP (start of production) car uses their technology, and they’re working with some very big names such as BYD, NIO, GM, Ford, Toyota, Volkswagen, Stellantis, Mercedes, BMW.

In the presentation they discussed how in November they held their second Analyst Day in which they outlined their new strategy called "Destination Next". They said that from a technology perspective this strategy or transition means they are going to be evolving from a voice only driver-centric solution via their Cerence Assistant or Co-pilate to a truly immersive in-cabin experience. Stefan Ortmanns (CEO Cerence) said early in the presentation something like "which means we're bringing in more features and applications beyond conversational AI, for example, wellness sensing, for example surrounding awareness, emotional AI or the interaction inside and outside the car with passengers and we have all these capabilities for creating a really immersive companion”. He also said something about the underlying strategy being based on 3 pillars, "scalable AI, teachable AI, and the immersive in-cabin experience", which has been bought about as a result of a "huge appetite for AI".

At about 6 mins Stefan Ortmanns says they have recently been shifting gear to bring in more proactive AI and he said something along these lines "What does it mean? So you bring everything you get together, so you have access to the sensors in the car, you have an embedded solution, you have a cloud solution, and you also have this proactive AI, for example the road conditions or the weather conditions. And if you can bring everything together you have a personalised solution for the driver and also for the passengers and this is combines with what we call the (??? mighty ?? intelligence). And looking forward for the immersive experience, you need to bring in more together, it's not just about speech, it's about AI in general right so, with what I said wellness sensing, drunkenness detection, you know we're working on all this kind of cool stuff. We're working on emotional AI to have a better engagement with the passengers and also with the driver. And this is our future road map and we have vetted this with 50-60 OEM's across the globe and we did it together with a very well know consultancy firm."

At about 13 mins they describe how there will be very significant growth in fiscal years 23/24 because of the bookings they have won over the last 18 to 24 months that will go into production at the end of this year and very early in 2024 and a lot of them will have the higher tech stack that Stefan talked about.

At roughly 25 mins Stefan Ortmanns is asked how they compete with big tech like Alexa, Google, Apple, and how are they are co-exisiting because there are certain OEMS's using Alexa and certain ones using Cerence as well. In terms of what applications is Cerence providing Stephan replied stating something like "Alexa is a good example, so what you're seeing in the market is that OEM's are selecting us for their OEM branded solution and we are providing the wake word for interacting with Alexa, that's based on our core technology".

Now here comes the really good bit. At 29 mins the conversation turns to partnership statements, and they touch on NVDIA and whether Cerence view NVDIA as a competitor or partner (sounds familiar). This question was asked in relation to NVDIA having its own chauffeur product which enables some voice capabilities with its own hardware and software however Cerence has also been integrated into NVDIA's DRIVE platform. In describing this relationship, Stefan Ortmanns says something like "So you're right. They have their own technology, but our technology stack is more advanced. And here we're talking about specifically Mercedes where they're positioned with their hardware and with our solution. There's also another semi-conductor big player, Qualcomm namely now they are working with Volkswagen group and they're also using our technology. So we're very flexible and open with our partners".

Following on from that they discuss how Cerence is also involved in the language processing for BMW which has to be "seamlessly integrated" with "very low latency".

So, a couple of points I wanted to throw in to emphasise why I'm thinking all of this so strongly indicates the use of BrainChip's technology being a part of Cerence's stack.

• Cerence presented Mercedes as the premium example in which to demonstrate how advanced their voice technology is in comparison to NVDIA's. Since this presentation is only a few days old, I don't think they'd be referring to Mercedes old voice technology but rather the new advanced technology developed for the Vision EQXX. And I don't think Cerence would be referring to Mercedes at all if they weren't still working with them.
• This is after Mercedes worked with BrainChip on the “wake word” detection for the Vision EQXX which made it 5-10 times more efficient. So, it only seems logical if Cerence's core technology is to provide the wake word that they should incorporate BrainChip’s technology to make the wake word detection 5-10 times faster.
• In November 2022 Nils Shanz, who was responsible for user interaction and voice control at Mercedes and who also worked on the Vision EQXX voice control system was appointed Chief Product Officer at Cerence.
• Previous post in which Cerence describe their technology as "self-learning",etc #6,807
• Previous post in which Cerence technology is described as working without an internet connection #35,234 and #31,305
• I’m no engineer but I would have thought the new emotion detection AI and contextual awareness AI that are connected to the car’s sensors must be embedded into Cerence’s technology for it all to work seamlessly.

Anyway, naturally I would love to hear what @Fact Finder has to say about this. As we all know he is the world's utmost guru in being able to sort the chaff from the wheat and always stands at the ready to pour cold water on any outlandish dot joining attempts when the facts don't stack up.

Of course, these are only the conclusions I have arrived at after watching the presentation and I would love to hear what everyone else’s impression are. Needless to say, I hope I'm right.

I can definitely feel the vibe in the forum degrading somewhat. The main dividing factor recently seems to be discussion regarding daily fluctuations in SP and people’s emotions about the increase / decrease.

What are people’s thoughts about having a seperate thread regarding the share price of Brainchip? I personally don’t have any interest in the price movement of Brainchip in the short term and would prefer discussion of the price movements not to be clogging up the research, dot joining and general good vibes of the main thread.

An AI lawyer is set to appear in court in a world first. Does it spell the end for costly legal fees?

The firm behind the technology says its robot lawyer can "fight corporations, beat bureaucracy and sue anyone at the press of a button".

Just wanted to pick some minds here, what is everyone’s realistic expectation or opinion on the up coming 4c? As for the past couple of ones i have had no expectations, I will keep the same sentiment for the up coming one. I just really really wish to be proven wrong.

I’d like to see some gains in 4C. But I doubt we will see it this time around. But then I think ok. Good, it’ll drop and I buy more. There won’t be many opportunities like this left.

Just my own fabricated lunacy.

So Peter Switzer was just on Sky news talking about the good employment figures. They talked ASX and he said watch the tech stocks, big rebound in 2023. Feels that we'll all be saying 'Switzer' nailed it again in 2023.

Hey Straw - good post mate. Someone posted a couple of days ago that this forum is more like a supporters group for 'team BRN', or something like that.
It made me think a bit because unlike HC, where there are plenty of posters just angling for an argument, this forum was designed to enable like-minded owners of this company to share information. I've been guilty of posting unhelpful comments as well.
A big thing to realise though is that some people here have bought low and are sitting on huge profits already, while others have bought higher and are likely sitting on a loss. This leads to a huge spectrum of emotions across the board. This is inevitable but I think 'Rise From The Ashes' may have found a solution - he's set up a sub-forum to discuss the SP (good,bad and ugly). I think if anyone wants to vent this could be a way to do it (or create another forum to achieve this).
We should all allow the BRN discussion forum (this one) to continue with the original purpose is was designed i.e. research and positive support for all holders of this business. Any posts to the contrary should be directed to the appropriate forum. Allow Dio, FF and many others to continue to educate us all free of unnecessary distraction.
My thoughts only.
