</html>In your text.addEventListener("input", updateCount()); assignment you did not assign the function updateCount to the input event of the selected element but instead you executed it once and assigned the non-existent return value of the function call to the event.
And in the function itself you will need to put (=assign) the calculated count somewhere too:
let text = document.querySelector('#text');
let count = document.querySelector('#count');
text.addEventListener("input", updateCount);
function updateCount(ev){
count.textContent=ev.target.value.length;

<script src="main.js"></script>

</html>ev.target.value.length gets the current length of the <textarea> element and count.textContent= assigns it to the target <span>.
A better way is by subscribing to the keyup event and getting the value from the scope using this keyword
function characterCount() {
document.getElementById('text').onkeyup = function () {
document.getElementById('count').innerHTML = this.value.length;
};
