Why Balanced Ternary {-1, 0, +1} Could Be the Future of AI Hardware**

For 70 years, computing has been binary: 0 or 1. But AI workloads are fundamentally different from traditional computing — and they might need a different number system.

Balanced ternary uses three states: -1, 0, and +1. The zero state is transformative: it means "this weight...
