ChatGPT will only give it a narrative based on what you've asked it for.  If you feed it the requirements of UKSPEC, it will give you back something that talks about those requirements, but doesn't look like a specific engineer's career path.  You could fake a career, and get ChatGPT to turn that into a narrative, but I hope that anyone doing that would be caught out in the interview.

Fully agree, I suspect we will see (at least as draft) applications with wording such as "compliance to standards is important to manage safety to societal expectations" - the sort of thing ChatGPT is really good at coming up with -  but a PRA would suggest to the candidate that they take it out as completely irrelevant. As Simon says, the only information on the application should be directly related to the applicant, not background about engineering generally.

Registration applications are NOT technical knowledge exams in any way, they are presenting a personal history of the applicant.

Maybe when I have five minutes and can get onto it (it spends a lot of it's time overloaded at the moment!) I'll try asking it to make me a CEng application and see what happens!

I thought that. It may be some
