I’ll believe it when they release the source code, so for now I’d remain skeptical until it’s reproduced.

"...source code will only be supplied in one of three formats, they say: “a copy handwritten on papyrus, a slide-show of blurry screenshots recorded on a VHS tape, or that I dictate it to you personally over the phone.”

Technically speaking you could get your hands on the code if you were determined enough haha
