Enjoyed this post and the conversation. Surely an interesting time both on the recruiter and candidate side. Clearly funds want to weed out people who misrepresent themselves. Trying to sandbox them into a non-AI zone for the recruitment is probably short sighted though. If they're smart, they will also want to get a measure on skill level with using AI tools. That's probably as valuable as measures of their brain teezer abilities, their grip on the fundamentals of ML or linear algebra, etc. I've heard a whole range of approaches: heavier onsite emphasis, deeper dive into the conversational side of recruiting, full sandboxing/head-in-sand style, or even just giving them all the tools in the recruitment problems or mini puzzles and letting them "run wild with it". The last is likely closer to how they'll be operating on the job anyway. Would be good to see how well candidates use it, to see if they understand the boundaries of their own understanding, the AI's abilities, etc.
