    See my answer to the other comment on this question. We figured there were some good use cases for AI in an interview that weren't just copy/pasting code, it's not about guessing i…

    One example would be looking up syntax and common functions. In a high-pressure situation it's much tougher to bumble around Google and Stack Overflow, so this would be a way for s…

    I recently interviewed for my team and tried this same approach. I thought it made sense because I want to see how people can actually work and problem solve given all the tools at…

    That's cool! I do all of those things as well, minus the uni classes and open-source. But for someone who has no interest in travel, then learning foreign languages would be a wast…
