To be fair, most real time coding interviews are complete bullshit anyway. If you want to see code samples ask for a portfolio, or give longer term coding homework. “Do three leetcode puzzles in 45 minutes or less” is about as useful as asking a candidate to shit in front of you.

“I drink 4-6 beers, jerk off, take a shower and then go to bed.”
Honestly if this kills coding interviews then it will be the best thing LLMs will have accomplished.

It’s generally slow as fuck
The thing is, I’d rather spend the time discussing the code and algorithms and design choices with someone who has had time to actually think through a problem. The reality is that I don’t care if you generate boilerplate code with the AI as long as you can explain it. I am mostly hiring for DSP roles so there’s plenty of theory to talk about above and beyond the code to ferret out the phonies.
My beef with live coding interviews is that you end up with the exact opposite experience. You get a nervous, scatterbrained engineer who is locked into panic code generation mode and there’s just no time to have a deeper discussion.
