I have to use a ton of regex in my new job (plz save me), and I use ChatGPT for all of it. My job would be 10x harder if it wasn't for ChatGPT. It provides extremely detailed examples and warns you of situations where the regex may not perform as expected. Seriously, try it out.

    That's the problem. It will confidently give you an correct sounding answer.

    If it is actually true is a different topic. So don't just blindly trust it. Verify, or at least sanity check it.
