The Witchcraft of AI: Understanding AlphaGo’s Underpinning Literacy and the Price System

I still flash back the chilly spring of 2016. Like millions of others, I sat fused to my screen, watching a black-and-white board game that's over 2,500 times old. The tourney was fabulous: Lee Sedol, the 18-time world champion of Go, against AlphaGo, a machine. At that time, numerous experts believed a computer could not master Go for another decade. But when AlphaGo played "Move 37"—a move so unorthodox that observers called it a mistake—I realized we were witnessing a new form of intelligence. This was a system that had "learned" how to win through Underpinning Literacy (Reinforcement Learning). Table of Contents 1. What's Underpinning Literacy? (The Mortal Perspective) 2.

The 2026 Blockchain Security Horizon: An In-Depth Analysis of PoW vs. PoS

Image
As of 2025, Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS)—the core pillars of blockchain technology—have proven their value through their separate titleholders, Bitcoin and Ethereum. But as 2026 approaches, which of these agreement algorithms will drive the future of blockchain security? We give an in-depth relative analysis of Bitcoin’s robustness and Ethereum’s evolutionary process to prognosticate the future of blockchain security. Hello! As someone deeply invested in blockchain technology, I want to bandy one of the most batted motifs: the security mechanisms of PoW (Proof of Work) and PoS (Proof of Stake). Fastening on the two titans, Bitcoin and Ethereum, we will explore which agreement algorithm will guard the blockchain's future in 2026. As we wrap up 2025, I’ve gained some fascinating perceptivity by nearly comparing the pros and cons of these two styles. The abecedarian thing of a blockchain network is to achieve "trusted agreement" in an "untrusted terrain....
