While Akida is digital, it uses a digital STDP (Spike-timing-dependent plasticity) learning circuit which processes data in parallel, as opposed to the Von Neumann architecture whose bottleneck is a shared bus retrieving the program's instructions as well as the data on which the instructions are executed.

The key point here, while both systems are digital (and by the way, digital circuits are made up of analog components), they are indeed two different architectures, with STDP close to mimicking the behavior of neurons.

Kudos on your attempt to dispute technical details on such a petty topic.
