I was actually mucking with ChatGPT about possible "post-binary" architectures.

Ternary computers were around almost 70 years ago, and first posited well over 100 years ago.

Maybe ChatGPT isn't the best place to do research.

For those who are not aware, Soviet scientists actually developed ternary computers back in the '50s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setun

Ternary encodings are also popular for data transmission, for example both USB4 and GDDR7 use PAM-3 encoding.

Maybe your anti-AI knee-jerk training isn't the best model for writing HN comments.

Did I say I wasn't aware of ternary you dumdum?

Even if you want to be anal, ternary is still "post-binary" even if it came out 300 years ago.
