Show HN: AWS CLI Installer on Apple Silicon

I learned while working on a new Kubernetes course that the official way of installing the AWS CLI on macOS per their documentation [^0] installs the x86 version of the CLI and that Apple Silicon is, mysteriously, not supported.

The Homebrew formula works around this by building from source [^1], but not everyone uses Homebrew, including me, for this course.

This script I wrote remediates this. It's a quick and easy way of installing the AWS CLI without a package manager or having to dig through GitHub Gists or Homebrew formulas yourself.

I hope someone out there finds this useful!
