I was performing QA on an AI-powered math app for students and discovered that word problems that included American currency triggered LaTeX formatting, causing them to have a strange appearance in the app.
To remedy this issue, I used natural language processing (NLP) to identify word problems with currency and escape the $’s so they wouldn’t trigger LaTeX formatting. I tested the output in the terminal. The engineers decided to let the browser parse it for MVP, so I used ChatGPT to translate it to JavaScript and tested it in the Network tab of Chrome Developer Tools. Then I lobbed that over to the frontend developer.
