I like Mellon.


“We have incorporated experimentation with BrainChip’s Akida development boards in our new graduate-level course, “Neuromorphic Computer Architecture and Processor Design” at Carnegie Mellon University during the Spring 2022 semester,” said John Paul Shen, Professor, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Carnegie Mellon. “Our students had a great experience in using the Akida development environment and analyzing results from the Akida hardware. We look forward to running and expanding this program in 2023.”

Hi Guys,

Just gone through the promo for the new Apple Macbook Pro that arrived in my Email as a Apple user..
5 times faster than Intel, better battery life, uses less power, greater capacity etc etc.
Has anybody else seen this? Could this be what we are looking for?

...or could this be why Intel has suddenly decided to include Akida in their offerings.

Shorters seem to be stuck in there positions, there isn’t enough liquidity for them to get out. I beat they are trying to hold us down until we move out of the ASX index which should create liquidity for them to close their positions. Fact is they are racing against time, any moment we could have an Ann that blows them out of the water.

Markus Schafer’s neuromorphic article is finally up


For those not aware, Markus Schafer is the CTO of Development & Procurement and is also a Member of the Board of Management of Mercedes-Benz. Markus is highly regarded across the industry and has almost 55,000 followers alone on LinkedIn. His post on neuromorphic computing highlighting BrainChip has only been live 14 hours but has already been re-posted 10 times extending the tentacles across multiple audiences.

A few may consider the content underwhelming, however for me, and IMO this coverage does a number of things.

1. Takes opportunity to identify BrainChip as one of two leading developers (alongside Intel)
2. Provides irrefutable proof of neuromorphic computings strategic importance to Mercedes future fleet development
3. Indicates that Mercedes are researching wide use cases that will have a direct impact on future AI functionality across their vehicles
4. Validates the ongoing partnership with BrainChip
5. Confirms that experts are working closely to examine new applications

6. Provides clue that even small node application is transferring to measurable advancement across multiple applications
7. Reinforces that a single use case for Akida (Hey Mercedes) has demonstrated efficiency improvements of 5-10 times
8. Clearly flags that efficiency improvements are paramount given the increasing use of AI technology within vehicles

Cheers.

NB - Perhaps also a timely reminder on the LinkedIn comments, let's keep it professional please.

Just (ICYMI) BrainChip sharing Markus Schafer’s Post, Great advertisement! Thanks Markus.

It's had been mentioned, but fantastic for a CTO of Mercedes referencing Neuromorphic Computing to only 'BrainChip and Intel' 😎🎉🥳

Have we discussed CEVA before in any detail? The reason I ask is that they seem to be describing what we have.

Hi Dhm,

AS Ella continually reminds us:
"Taint what you do,
It's the way that you do it."

CEVA Figure 1 "Mixed precision neural Engine - 4k MAC"

1674005154254.png


Using MACs and 16 bits is incompatible with Akida SNN. These are von Neumann hangovers.

While they refer to sparsity, there in no indication that CEVA are using N-of-M coding.

This CEVA patent application relates to the cited article:

EP3709225A1 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EFFICIENT UTILIZATION OF MULTIPLIERS IN NEURAL-NETWORK COMPUTATIONS

1674005320675.png


A system and method for performing neural network calculations may include selecting a size in bits for representing a plurality of weight elements of the neural network based on a value of the weight elements. In each computational cycle: if the size in bits of a weight element of the plurality of weight elements is N, configuring an N∗K multiply accumulator to perform one multiply-accumulate operation of a K-bit data element and the N-bit weight element; and if the size in bits of at least two N/M-bit weight elements of the plurality of weight elements is N/M, configuring the N∗K multiply accumulator to perform up to N/M multiply-accumulate operations, each of a K-bit data element and an N/M-bit weight element, where N, K and M are integers bigger than one, N is a power of 2, M is even and N≥M.

...
Typically, the neurons and links within a NN are represented by mathematical constructs, such as activation functions and matrices of data elements and weights. A processor, e.g. CPUs or graphics processing units (GPUs), or a dedicated hardware device may perform the relevant calculations.

[0004] NN calculations require performing a huge amount of multiplications, e.g., of the data elements and weights. Typical hardware implementations of NN usually support 16-bit fixed-point precision arithmetic processing. However, the power consumption of such devices becomes a problem in many NN applications.

[0005] Attempts to reduce the power consumption have been made, for example, by reducing the bit precision to 8, 4 or even 1 bit. While reducing the bit precision may indeed reduce the power consumption, it may at the same time reduce the accuracy of the neural network.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
[0006] According to embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a system and method for efficient utilization of multipliers in neural network computations by an execution unit. The method may include for example determining a size in bits of weight elements; configuring an N∗ K multiply accumulator to perform at least two multiply operations in parallel, if the size in bits of at least two weight elements is not bigger than N /M, where K is an integer bigger than one, each of N and M is a power of 2 and N≥M

Good morning everyone.

Can we stop sharing Motley Fool articles here?

BRN holders share it everywhere and then we complain that picklebro writes non stop about Brainchip.

They get maximum exposure with Brainchip when holders write and discuss their articles constantly. They have every reason to write it because we create the buzz, make a platform and share it far and wide.

Stop posting their bs articles here and then the buzz goes away and they'll find another company.

This is my "soft" opinion only, you can continue to share it if you wish, thought I'd make the suggestion 😉 .
You're 100% right BaconLover 👍

They bait the hook perfectly, with their "views" and we take the bait each time and run with it.

It's a deliberate parasitic strategy and it's working for them.

They obviously need the help, to engage in such an unethical practice, but why should we give it to them?

Have a belly laugh at their bullshit, if you want, but don't spread it around unless your intention is to help their cause.

There are better causes out there..

So who’s going to send Picklebro a copy of Markus Schaefer’s blog? No need to rub it in too much. Remember that humility is a valuable and admirable attribute. Maybe just very subtly highlight that Markus states that neuromorphic computing is a “highly significant field of computing“ and that we’re described as being “leading developers“ and, without tooting our own horn too much, just quickly mention that we were mentioned ahead of Intel and then maybe also highlight this statement “Together with intense parallel execution on neuromorphic chips, the new processing principles require us to go beyond the application of existing #AI frameworks to neuromorphic chips.”

And then sign off saying “Nah-nah-née-nah-nah”. 😝

Just joking - about the sign-off part that is.🤭
I would rather no one give him a heads up on anything and let him get trampled in the ensuring stampede!!

MF were big on recommending AfterPay (APT). Who not only wasn't making a profit but last year lost 350M! What will it be this year. That never seemed to worry them. They were promoting broker views that the SP would go to $300 (valuing the company at 80B even after Square offered $150 (39B) for the take over.

MF were an investor in APT they would disclose in small print.

As an aside the price that APT was acquired for would be the same as $23 for BRN!

APT was the market darling of the ASX, but had a costly, crappy business plan.

BRN will be the market darling of the ASX (for starters), but it will be built on a solid foundation, that we are all witnessing the construction of.

Our business plan is Golden and brings a smile to my face, whenever I think about it.

Empires are not built overnight, but they do get built.

Sounds like a good advertising slogan 🤔..

The Valeo expert commeneted on the post stating "I can confirm that it is a long way to go but very promising". That doesn't fill me with any confidence that we will be in any Valeo products anytime soon.
