Yuchen Jin, on X, says AI has made LeetCode-style coding interviews obsolete, arguing that a 1B-parameter LLM can one-shot all LeetCode Hard problems.

He says he dropped such interviews years ago and now tests how well candidates use AI tools.

Jin cites a quoted post saying Google added a Code Comprehension round in which candidates debug a 200-500-line codebase with Gemini available. The report is a single social media post, and the post's account of Google's interview format is not confirmed by Google in the material provided.
