Confession: Regex knowledge is one of those things I've let completely atrophy after integrating LLMs into my workflow. I guess if the day comes that AI/ML models suddenly disappear, or become completely unavailable to me, I'll have to get into the nitty gritty of Regex again...but until that time, it is a "solved problem" for my part.

It's hilarious that the most reliable way to write a complex regex is to fire up billions of dollars of state of the art ML code and ask for what you want in English.
