We may be past the point of leetcode challenges, but now different companies have different levels of acceptance for AI assistance.
One data point talked about technical interviews where a candidate was interrupted and asked to lean on the LLM more.

Follow up: does your company's AI guidelines for interview candidates align with the guidelines for employees?
