"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

It's a figure of speech. It means "I don't care, fuck you. Get in the car."
"Our hands our tied" is no figure of speech I know.
It definitely is. A very common one at that. Even if you don't know it.

Talking to people.
... my dear sibling in Nyarlathotep, you are thinking of "our hands are tied". You do see the difference between "our hands our tied" and "our hands are tied", yes?
Oh okay so you were just being an annoying pedant about a spelling error. Got it.
It's not like they mistyped a letter. "Our" and "are" are completely different words, spelled completely differently, with entirely different meanings. It's bone apple tea.
I just think it's fascinating how some people don't seem to look at what they're reading.
Our hands are tied.
Edit: lol sry, wrong comment
