Wrote my full comment at the top level.
I'm a FAANG interviewer and I've run my coding questions through ChatGPT.
The TL;DR is that code would easily pass a junior-level interview, and maybe a mid-level one. I'm definitely convinced these technologies will disrupt leetcode-style coding interviews.
So either we embrace it, or ditch this approach altogether.
- wittycardio 4y agoWhy would they when you could just google the answers to these questions the whole time. The point is to see if the candidate understands algorithms not to solve a novel problem.
- coldcode 4y agoReal work is more than making snippets of things. At my last employer, changes were requested every single day, in large and small ways, requiring insane amounts of reworking previous ideas in the codebase on a continuous basis without breaking everything. I wonder how well this AI would do on an entire application that wasn't predetermined. That might take much longer to achieve than solving small problems. I imagine an AI in that kind of environment inventing Skynet and doing us all in.
