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.My interpretation is that this acquisition will help support Arm's ambitions to develop it's own custom chips, which might in turn provide more of an incentive for Arm to integrate BrainChip's Akida neuromorphic processor to deliver advanced AI capabilities at the edge.
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.
