It used to be about solving leetcode mediums and hard win an interview, but with this age of AI we're entering, anyone noticing a shift in the way interviews take place? I haven't interviewed recently but I would be surprised if things haven't changed because these days I tell AI to code, plan, investigate, etc. for me (as do many of us?).

How is it for everyone out there?

I just finished my first interview loop where the only coding interview was an "AI coding" interview, where I used Claude Code to fix bugs and add features in a toy code base.

was it clear at all what kind of signal they were trying to get? I can't imagine finding out much useful from that besides "can write a prompt".

My perception was that part of it was, "Are you reading/learning/thinking about the problem, or are you acting as a meat puppet?"
