And anyone who argues the contrary suffers from a fundamental failing based on one of two assumptions: either they assume that AI is the most effective and efficient way to solve the majority, nay, all, of business problems; or they focus on large businesses.

But, is there an alternative to binary? Imagine a world where calculators used -1, 0 and 1, or one that worked on variable input. What would that look like? Let’s explore. TL;DR: Binary isn’t the only way computers can work. Analogue systems can be faster and more energy-efficient for specific tasks, quantum computers tackle complex...]]></description><link>https://www.felttipfaerie.com/post/alternative-to-binary-digital-computing</link><guid isPermaLink="false">698c98adb26ba4c0ee1fb1b4</guid><category><![CDATA[Computing]]></category><pubDate>Fri, 13 Feb 2026 09:00:22 GMT</pubDate><enclosure url="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/dacf2e_491453895c234ef79ff8209b47b410d2~mv2.png/v1/fit/w_1000,h_1000,al_c,q_80/file.png" length="0" type="image/png"/><dc:creator>thefelttipfaerie</dc:creator></item><item><title><![CDATA[Are AI-generated Artworks in Copyright Infringement?]]></title><description><![CDATA[Are AI-generated Artworks in Copyright Infringement? The short answer is: probably. There is copyright infringement in AI-generated artwork and companies that train their AI are probably breaking copyright, but it’s not in the way that you might expect!
That’s because there are two ways that you can think about how AI-generated artwork could break copyright:
