  I mean when you say “hardly no AI” that means it was “mostly all” AI. I don’t think that’s what you meant to say.

    English isn’t my first language, but no matter how many times I check my translation, it seems to make sense to me.

    But anyway, I’m sure you understand the nuance in that sentence better than I do, so I’ll take it back just to be on the safe side

      I don’t know why besstiolle is getting downvoted when they are correct.

      When people say that there is very little of something the natural way is “hardly any rain” for example. So if you “negate” the any to no, it means the opposite.

        If your friend says to you “There is no rain” and you go outside and it pouring, you could say 'Hardly “no rain!” ’ As a kind of mocking comment highlighting that it’s the complete opposite of no rain. It is very hard to call is “no rain” when it’s raining so much.

        Hope this helps!

        I also thought that was how it worked, but then again, as English isn’t my first language, I’d rather not dwell on that detail
