The discussion focuses on the concept of inhibiting NAND and NOT gates, specifically whether the inhibition is active high or active low. It clarifies that inhibiting a gate means disabling it, ensuring its output remains constant regardless of other inputs. The conversation suggests that an inhibit gate functions similarly to an AND gate, where tying one input low results in a constant low output, while tying one input of an OR gate high results in a constant high output. The term "inhibit" is not widely recognized in engineering contexts.
