Are AoC and LeetCode still worth it?

1 pointsby cutthegrass28 months ago
With the advancements in LLM technology, which can now solve Advent of Code challenges with minimal input and easily handle LeetCode medium-level problems, do you think the tech industry will shift away from using these types of coding challenges for candidate interviews? Or to put it another way, what is the value now in spending time to get good at solving these types of problems, given that LLM's are now advanced enough to solve them?

The best writeup I found of people trying this for AoC 2023 had a mediocre success rate on the first 12 problems:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.themotte.org&#x2F;post&#x2F;797&#x2F;chatgpt-vs-advent-of-code" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.themotte.org&#x2F;post&#x2F;797&#x2F;chatgpt-vs-advent-of-code</a>

When have they ever been worth it?
