    Great job, the system is broken as fuck anyway. The fact that he used AI to do it is the karmic cherry on top! Ideally, you should be able to run the model on the cloud of the company you’re interviewing for, just as an extra ‘fuck you’.

    Companies are already resisting because they can’t figure out a good way to interview people. “We tried nothing and are all out of ideas”. Hopefully more companies like Fuck Leetcode pop up to force a change in interview techniques.

    Cheating leetcode interviews with AI doesn’t seem that innovative to me, just adding dishonesty to a broken practice. Destruction is always easier than creation.

    Also, as someone who frequently designs and runs SW interviews, it’s totally possible to run interviews that test actually important SW skills like OO design, error handling, and using APIs, which AIs still fail handily.

    If you want to do something cool, make an AI to refactor your codebase for maintainability and security.

      You seem completely detached from the grueling experience of being interviewed, so it’s unsurprising that you don’t understand why somebody would want to burn this whole thing down.

        I do do interviews too. It’s a lot of time and work. A well designed interview can and should be a realistic, rewarding problem solving session where you get to try out collaboration with potential colleagues.

        Not American here, but isn’t any structured organisation providing what is essentially a schooling service considered a school? Asking genuinely

          I suppose technically yes, but not in normal conversation (in Britain at least). It’s not like it’s completely nonsensical, but to us school is primary and secondary education, higher education is university; they’re distinctly different things and saying “gets kicked out of school” would be way less ambiguous.

            US people like to give everything a different name. They often repurpose names from elsewhere thus bringing much confusion to online spaces. It’s their thing.

      I’d imagine that you graduate high school at 18 and choose to go to college for the next 4, meaning you graduate as a 22-year old. Add or subtract a year for birthdays that align oddly with the academic year.

        In much of the world “school” does not refer to higher education. Unless you meant that you went back to your high school at 32.

        Edit: looks at negative score Did I need some emojis or some shit to make it clear that I was taking the piss? Back to “school” with you lot.

          And yet you know damned well what they meant, otherwise you wouldn’t have responded with the “well akshually” type of comment.

            I didn’t make the initial comment and I would have thought it was pretty bloody obvious I was making a joke with my second sentence. I was trying to make the explanation less dry, but thanks for the hostility. Reminds me of fuckin’ Reddit.

        Calling university “school” is not a universal practice in English.

        Edit: last time I explain someone else’s comment…
