I'll be honest, I've never found regex that difficult, bit if you cannot read or write it, then it seems incredibly dangerous to blindly trust output from an AI.

What makes you think anyone blindly trusted it?

They pointed out how it was almost correct, and the two places they had to correct. Obviously, they verified it.

There and at other times, they talked about similar approaches of generating a starting point rather than "blindly trusting" or anything like that.
