2021 BRN Discussion, page-124

“There is a race for providing hardware that would raise the bar in terms of neurons and synapses. Synapses are probably more important than neurons,” said Cambou. “At Yole, we see two steps ahead of us. First, the applications that will be built upon the current approach, in part asynchronous and in part from Von Neumann.” Good examples are Brainchip’s Akida and Intel’s Loihi. “Then, probably within the next 10 to 15 years, we will get RRAM [resistive random-access memory] on top of it. That will allow for more synapses to be created.”

Thanks rayz for reminding us all that Yole having been covering BRN since at least 2019.

The extract from your 2019 article is particularly on point given we have some saying BRN need to get going.

In 2019 Yole are predicting in 10 to 15 years RRAM will find its way to AKIDA and Loihi. In November 2020 Peter van der Made announces at BIC AKD2000/3000 with prediction are close and in his podcast interview from last February he states AKD2000/3000 will also include RRAM.

Intel and Loihi are in a hole hoping a new head will dig them out and Brainchip is eight to thirteen years ahead of Yole’s development prediction.

As rayz and uiux constantly demonstrate if you are prepared to do the research and read what others find you do not personally need BRN to be giving you announcements to retain your conviction and know where BRN is heading.

My opinion only DYOR.
