Describe the Bug

Importing the chatGPT module does not work. It thoughts the error below.

reproducable:

Error:

@nx/js/src/executors/node/node-with-require-overrides.js:18
return originalLoader.apply(this, arguments);

Error [ERR_REQUIRE_ESM]: require() of ES Module node_modules/chatgpt/build/index.js from brain-api/main.js not supported.
Instead change the require of index.js in apps/brain-api/main.js to a dynamic import() which is available in all CommonJS modules.

Try set "type": "module" to your package.json?

very annoying :( same problem, if i change type to module i get:

module.exports = require("@nestjs/core");
^
ReferenceError: require is not defined in ES module scope, you can use import instead
This file is being treated as an ES module because it has a '.js' file extension ...

How do we fix it?

Maybe its export in package.json meteor/meteor#11727 (comment)
