I have two matrices A and B of identical dimensions. What's the simplest (shortest) way to find the indices of differing elements?

I've failed to find a duplicate so:

SparseArray[A - B]["NonzeroPositions"]

Position[A - B, x_ /; x != 0., {2}]

I hope those are numeric matrices, if not then you have to watch out on the Condition in the second solution.
