"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.

Our hands are tied.

[–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 9 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

The guy who the cop said that to was actually in handcuffs at the time

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Yes. But "our hands our tied" makes no sense. The cops hands were not tied.

post edited 🤦 i actually spent a moment pondering your first comment but didn't realize i'd typoed until someone else in the thread spelled it out

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah. No worries.

[–] harmbugler@piefed.social 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It's a figure of speech. It means "I don't care, fuck you. Get in the car."

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

"Our hands our tied" is no figure of speech I know.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org -1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

It definitely is. A very common one at that. Even if you don't know it.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Source?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org -2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Talking to people.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

... 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?

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org -2 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Oh okay so you were just being an annoying pedant about a spelling error. Got it.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago

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.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 4 points 3 weeks ago

I just think it's fascinating how some people don't seem to look at what they're reading.

[–] queermunist@lemmy.ml 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

Our hands are tied.

[–] Lumidaub@feddit.org 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Edit: lol sry, wrong comment

[–] CarbonatedPastaSauce@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

He's trying to tell you that you have a typo in your headline. If English isn't your first language, the correct phrase is as atrielienz typed it, "Our hands are tied". The sentence "Our hands our tied" does not make sense in English.

[–] cypherpunks@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

lmao, i was wondering what they were talking about 😭

thanks for spelling it out clearly; i've now edited the post to fix it.

(English is in fact my first language btw, possibly i'm suffering from some hopefully temporary cognitive impairment 😅)

[–] atrielienz@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

I should have been more clear. I honestly assumed it was quoted directly from the article. Didn't even think it was op's typo.
