Apologies for the snark, but are you also impressed by `git clone` downloading a repository that is openly available on the internet?

It can even do that in a loss-less way, instead of burning a bunch of tokens to get a bad, barely working half-copy.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no AI hater, they are an impressive technology. But both AI-deniers and hypers need a reality check.
