Affordablehost Newsletter – February 2026

Hello Tech Enthusiasts,

In this edition of our newsletter, we’re bringing you fascinating insights from AI’s foray into music at the Olympics and exploring how these advancements can translate to local businesses. We’ll also delve into recent developments in hosting solutions that could revolutionize your digital landscape.

AI Composition Takes Center Ice

At the recently concluded Winter Games in Beijing, Czech ice dance duo Katerina Mrazkova and Daniel Mrazek made headlines with more than just their elegant moves on the rink—they skated to music composed by artificial intelligence. The AI-composed piece was created using a large language model (LLM) trained on thousands of musical compositions.

While this innovative approach drew attention, it also highlighted an issue we’re seeing increasingly in tech: LLMs sometimes produce outputs that are eerily similar—even identical—to existing works they’ve been fed during their training. This phenomenon is known as plagiarism by imitation or “prompts”).

*Takeaway for businesses:* As AI becomes more integrated into creative processes, it’s crucial to consider intellectual property rights and ensure ethical use of these tools.

Harnessing the Power: Local Applications

Imagine applying this concept locally—could South African musicians collaborate with local developers using LLMs to compose unique sounds? Could Cape Town-based fashion designers incorporate generative AI in their textile designs?

Affordablehost’s Dedicated Servers, combined with powerful processors and ample RAM, provide an ideal environment for experimenting safely with such innovative technologies.

In other news, n8n.io—the open-source automation platform—has made significant strides. Now more accessible than ever via our user-friendly control panels on Affordablehost’s Cloud VPS, this tool enables businesses to automate workflows efficiently and affordably using a visual interface.
