I think this is a bad idea. Odds are very high that this will end with an immediate rejection and maybe even blacklisting, if I were you I wouldn't risk it. Thing is, even if the field of work is relevant (AI), most companies consider their HR process as some kind of sacred rite of passage and they tend to be very inflexible in changing their mode of operation per candidate. Not to mention that even if companies advertise otherwise, disregard for status quo || authority is not really a marketable character trait. To answer your question on a more personal note: actually, I'd at least be a bit impressed if the end product is of high quality, and would like to learn more about the code and your reasoning behind it. Yet I believe this would be an uncommon approach in the industry.
