Does he really don't know the difference between cut and copy?

What if this is a plot to literally steal your code? You give it to the AI, page refreshes and clears your clipboard. Your entire "source code file" is now theirs, and probably part of the training set for Grok 5.

The first part is a joke, but the second part...

Ctrl+Z undoes the cut.

Assuming people upload their code to fix it, that means it's non working code. Great training material!

I'm joking but I wouldn't be surprised if he didn't think that through...
