Hi All
A friend and fellow shareholder has extracted the following from the podcast. It of course is not an authorised or full transcription but it does cover some of the significant points made by Dr. Joseph Guerci concerning Brainchip and its AKIDA technology:

“And the whole point of a neural network is the weighting that goes onto those interconnects from layer to layer. And the interesting thing about that is you've got companies like BrainChip in Australia, right, that is not by any stretch using the most sophisticated foundry to achieve ridiculous line lists like conventional FPGAs and GPUs do. Instead it's just a different architecture.
But why is that such a big deal? Well, in the case of BrainChip as well as Intel and IBM, these chips can be the size of a postage stamp.

And because they're implementing what are called spiking neural networks, or SNNs, they only draw power when there's a change of state, and that's a very short amount of time, and it's relatively low-power.

So at the end of the day, you have something the size of a postage stamp that's implementing a very, very sophisticated convolutional neural network solution with grams and milliwatts as opposed to kilograms and kilowatts.

And so to me, this is the revolution. This is dawning.

This is the thing that changes everything...

This is the thing that changes everything. So now you see this little UAV coming in, and you don't think for a second that it could do, you know, the most sophisticated electronic warfare functions, for example. Pulse sorting, feature identification, geolocation, all these things that require, you know, thousands of lines of code and lots of high-speed embedded computing, all of a sudden it's done on a postage stamp.

That's the crazy thing.

And by the way, in my research we've done it. we've implemented pulse, the interleaving, we've implemented, you know, ATR, specifically on the BrainChip from Australia, by the way.”

Contrast the following comments from a published paper purporting to be an overview of the potential uses of neuromorphic computing in medicine with Dr. Guerci comments regarding the fabrication of AKIDA technology. These researchers unfortunately do not appear to have any knowledge of AKD1000:

Their research paper was published on 23 August, 2023:

“The fabrication of neuromorphic hardware currently faces several limitations. The specialized components and architectures used in neuromorphic hardware can be different from those used in traditional computing hardware, resulting in increased costs and complexity. Additionally, as mentioned in section 2, analog architectures, which are often preferred due to their energy-efficient and computationally efficient solutions, can suffer from fabrication issues such as transistor–transistor mismatch. This natural variation in the electrical properties of devices can result in variations in behaviour.”

And beyond this contrast what the type of drones driven by AKIDA in the battle field could achieve as referenced by Dr. Guerci with what basically primitive adaptions have proven out in Ukraine:
