What is up with the typos-in-CV code? It’s going to find every space between words?
Seems the author did not check the AI’s output…

And even if it generated \s{2,}, well, a multiple whitespace would be a typo? You need a dictionary to identify typos.
I do somewhat fear my career turning into cleaning up ChatGPT-created messes. Of course I've already cleaned up my fair share of previous coder's messes. But ChatGPT messes have the potential to be a real nightmare even beyond that.
Everything beyond 4 or 5 lines has contained bugs, be they subtle or blatent (as this one is). But what's really concerning is that either A: the author doesn't notice before writing about how amazing ChatGPT is at code or B: the author doesn't even think to check. Both are terrible, but each in its own way. And it is this reaction that concerns me more than the quality of ChatGPT itself.
ChatGPT and other chatbots will improve too.
I've seen this and similar predictions repeated so many times. What are they based on? Who says those systems "will improve"? How will they "improve"? Why is everyone so certain?
But the fact that people are already back to full-blown 1970s-style "the computer said it! it must be true!" with GPT-based technologies does not bode well for our ability to assess future technologies either. The possibility of future AI technology being just an even-more obfuscated and convincing error generator at this point can not be dismissed, if people are already failing this badly at evaluating what is still an embryonic technology.
I'm sure people will accuse me of being a Luddite about AI in the future, and I'm sure they won't appreciate "Look, it's not that I don't appreciate the technology, what I'm not trusting is you and your assessment, since you have a proved past track record of being unable to assess AI technology reliably." I've got all sorts of friends to make in the future with that.
Me: Tell me if the following sentence contains any typos or grammar errors:
"This is my CV.I am a experianced developer. I have 5 years of experiance."
ChatGPT:
Yes, there are typos and grammar errors in the sentence. Here is the corrected sentence:
"This is my CV. I am an experienced developer. I have 5 years of experience."
The corrections made are as follows:
1. "experianced" should be "experienced".
2. "experiance" should be "experience".
3. The first sentence is incomplete and should be separated from the second sentence with a period
Point #3 correctly calls out the error (missing space) but describes it incorrectly. Also it corrected "a" to "an" (good for a grammar checker) but didn't list it as a mistake.
