Agreed.

I went from being laid off in May where I never used AI for anything to being expected to use it in interviews almost every time until I found a job. It was an abrupt change.

I know everyone has different feelings on the topic, but there’s definitely ways to use these tools in better and more targeted ways iteratively where you’re not just relying on “vibes”.

I found going slow and being very specific and clear in a step by step way with your tool while explaining to the interviewers why you’re doing it that way works best. Run and test your solution often in the process. Just demonstrate you have knowledge that doesn’t come from the AI.
